I'm a bit of an eclectic mess πŸ™‚ I've been a programmer, journalist, editor, TV producer, and a few other things.

I'm currently working on my second novel which is complete, but is in the edit stage. I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago but then didn't write much till now.

I post about #Coding, #Flutter, #Writing, #Movies and #TV. I'll also talk about #Technology, #Gadgets, #MachineLearning, #DeepLearning and a few other things as the fancy strikes ...

Tusker is an excellent Mastodon iOS app that has just moved from beta onto the Apple app store. Check it out. It’s free. And it’s very good. #mastodon #Tusker

@DaNanner Sorry to hear about being overwrought. Hope things get better for you on that front …

Regarding a Mastodon client, Tusker and IceCubes both look great and have different features that I’d want. Plus, they’re both open source (as is MetaText if I’m not mistaken) …

Laurie is looking at Tusker and IceCubes to see which one she likes and then I’m hoping to start adding to the one she likes to create the perfect Mastodon client for our own needs since the code is available. Would be happy to share whatever we end up with if you’d like to try …

New call for pitches from MIT Technology Review, for our upcoming issue on . We're looking for *big* swings: narrative features, investigations, essential profiles, and sharp essays at the general intersection of accessibility and technology.

Pitch deadline: Feb 3
Our rates range from $1-2/word.

This is the first time I've posted a pitch call to @Mastodon, so let me know if there are hashtags I should add or groups I should cc.

It's raining on and off; little chance to indulge in gardening today.

Got a few photos and now back indoors just as rain picked up. It's more than a drizzle now - the plants seem delighted to be spared from cycles of frost and baking sun.

Eastern Black Swallowtail Butterfly.

Sitting on a Great Blue Lobelia (Lobelia siphilitica).

I was just minding my own business photographing flowers when this butterfly landed on the Lobelia near me. She stayed for a few minutes and was on her way.

January Joy - Day 24
"Canola Field in Bloom"

The snow is gone again, but it's still very cold outside. Waiting for Spring to arrive. Somewhen last Spring I saw this beautiful canola field during a bike tour on the Mulderadweg (Mulde Bike Path) in Germany and of course had to take pictures.

Yesterday's #StableDiffusion prompt was: "Making Money".

Not any of the resulting images had anything to do with the #DiscWorld novel, and some didn't even seem to fit the concept of the title, but hey, that's how it goes, right? πŸ˜›
