I've built kernels. Programmed software.
Hacked systems. Modded hardware. Built synths (from kits). Installed OSes on my computers & phone. Soldered stuff. Broke stuf & repaired it.

BUT today was the first time that I updated the software on a car manually.

Still felt a bit giddy & nervous about it, but it seems to have been successfully updated.

Apparently *everything* is a computer now.

Si sa.

I #NanowarOfSteel sono degli adorabili #nerd e non a caso molte delle loro canzoni sono condite di riferimenti che spaziano dagli anime alle scienze pure, come nel caso dell'ultimo singolo #Iride

Ma la domanda è: quelli dell' @esa sapranno che una metal band italiana ha fatto una canzone sul programma #Iris?

I like to put U+202F NARROW NO-BREAK SPACE between numbers and units, such as:

2,345 mi
3.95 kg
25.7 °C

These diminutive slivers add just enough space between numbers and letters to make them easier to read, but still keep them together.

I also like to use the script ℓ for liters to keep it legible.

1.0 gal ≈ 3.79 ℓ

I recently stumbled upon #Strudel <strudel.cc> and I’m quite amazed. 🤩

It’s basically programmable music. I know next to nothing about music theory, but this tool is very cool to mess around with. 😃

I was already aware of #C music, but this is … new.

I finished the early tutorial and I THINK I almost understand the code of the first examples.

But coming up with a song of my own? That's still HARD. I'm still a developer, mostly.
