Experimenting with Claude Code and some FIT files to try and map out some of my workout data. Pretty neat what a couple of fairly well crafted prompts can churn out
Today, my research group @ Georgia Tech released a paper on vulnerabilities in Tile --- the second largest device finding network after Apple's AirTags. You can read about it in Wired, reporting by @kimzetter.bsky.social! www.wired.com/story/tile-t...

Another decent #AppleEvent. Although still can't believe AirPods Max are 5 years old now, with no real new release. Sorry but USB-C and new colours doesn't count 😆

Teach a robot to fish and soon you won't remember how to.
Sights of summer trickling in. Another scorcher of a day ahead in April, hoping this means we’ve got a packed summer of this weather! This is a picture from last nights ride in the glorious West Yorkshire hills 🌞
Morning Bluesky. China has just raised tariffs on US goods to 125%, matching the US tariff inc. Who blinks first?
The big yellow object in the Sky, really is a pleasant sight to see ☀️ 🌞
Men are facing a loneliness epidemic. So why do Dems want to stop group chats where guys bond over shared military interests? By Ross Douthat
Just finished my first session at Solo60 in Shoreditch. What a cool concept. Essential book a solo gym for a period of time! Really convenient and private 👍 what a great idea!
So much talk about AI coding tools, vibe coding, AI agents So many complaints of these tools “breaking down” above some complexity / context length So little - basically no - talk about software architecture that makes for code devs can easily maintain/evolve. Or AI tools!
Aaaand we’re back in business! Dusted off the old ClusterHAT 2.3 and been tinkering with some Homelabby SOC this evening. Also migrated my PiHole instance to it as a first ditch play! It’s also hooked up to a Tapo energy monitoring plug 🤓. Super cool!
Morning Bluesky. Welcome to the Age of De-evolution.
Have we passed peak intelligence? In international tests, student scores for reading and maths sunk to a new low. US teens are struggling to concentrate & evaluate information. The excellent @jburnmurdoch.ft.com Warning: this thread is dark 🧵
I seem to remember a few folks had some open tools around to remove all your content from X. I've lost my references to them. Has anyone got any recommended tools for the job?
The start… of the decluttering… Newsletters rapidly get out of hand!
It’s just astonishing that this is even considered a way to boost the economy. Really clutching at straws…
Today's Poll: There's discussion on raising the limit on contactless card payments above its current £100, to help boost the economy, would you support that? (Apple/Google pay etc are unaffected) 1️⃣ Increase the limit 2️⃣ Keep at £100 3️⃣ Reduce the limit 4️⃣ I never pay that way 📊 Show results
I am well a truly an Impossibrew convert. It tastes great! For those that don’t know / haven’t tried it yet. It’s an alcohol free beer (ale, which is the one I prefer) that gives you a nice buzz! I’d highly recommend giving it a punt. Lovely stuff!
I love this comic so much. "But-" MONETIZE YOUR FREE TIME
This may be the absolute norm for most. But today, I wrote some code, had it reviewed by my team, and shipped to production… all in ONE day

Down in London for my first couple in-person weeks at my new engineering role (more on that soon!) But “cyclists” in London are mental. It’s a bloody free for all at junctions and they seem to be wearing glasses that convert all street lights to green!
