Hundreds of people carefully beeping their pass so as to not disturb a cat sleeping on a metro gate in Istanbul. #Caturday

So many #volcanoes erupting around #Singapore they have their own weather map:

They had a series of workspaces for different crafts set up to show what a typical space looks like:

I’m at the HOMO FABER exhibit in Venice that is celebrating craftsmanship and artistic expression, and it is really impressive and moving. Just want to share a few pictures:

The #LasVegas #Meshtastic mesh is starting to get its annual influx of users. I’m sure #Meshcore is having the same experience. #DefCon

Great new feature in the latest Signal app. If you enable disappearing messages the meta data of calls and missed calls gets deleted as well. I know this was a long standing goal for them, but the engineering behind it took time. #Privacy @signalapp

I’d like to thank @noid for unearthing this ancient picture of me at a hacker space in LA from like 1994 or something:

I was hanging out at a local #Seattle bar I haven’t been to in years yesterday watching USA lose their soccer match. I was served by Antifa and read this great announcement on the wall. Seattle keeping it real.

Just conformal coating my new network cards before deployment.. instead of painting D&D or WH40k figures I’m doing circuitry. The desk mounted black light makes it so much easier.

With South East Asia getting around 80% oil from the Straight of Hormuz, and #Singapore around 65%, it seems prescient that back in February they had a campaign around awareness if the power goes out:

Singapore public messaging sign: “

When the lights go out, how do we stay on?
Be ready before disruption strikes.
Follow the ABCs of what to do during a prolonged power outage:
ASSESS
your situation (check for safety and extent of outage)
BE CAREFUL
(switch off all equipment/ appliances)

I saw this video on Reddit, I’m curious how it calculates “cups” and is cups a good proxy for productivity? Obviously the person running the espresso machine will have the most. It reminds me of the (inaccurate) adage “If you can’t measure it, it doesn’t exist”

Goodbye South Africa, you were beautiful. The night sky in Cape Town was amazing. I don’t see stars like that in Singapore.

Kung Fu #Robots too close to each other. It kinda feels like LLMs getting better over time but won’t be there for a long time.

You can really see the surge of new users right around #DefCon, then as the conference ends so do the sign ups. Let's see how many stick around Mastodon - a great complement to existing social media.

When I worked as a SGE for the White House ONCD we had to attend mandatory Hatch Act training. I just found my “Social Media Quick Guide” for what is permissible. Nowdays I bet it is quite different.

It sucks, but the CDC vaccination app is now updated with politically driven COVID information.

I was given this #CISA rubix cube by then director Easterly and it was all orderly and nice. Unfortunately this is the approximate current situation:
