A photo of the blue whale skeleton in the Natural History Museum of London. The picture is shot at f/16. The picture is really dark. You can see a glimpse of some lights and outlines of the building but not much else.

mechanical keyboards make me a better designer, which is why I always leave a couple on the desk before starting my day (editors note: I know I have a problem, I just don't care).

Managed to order Nicholas Felton’s 2009 annual report before it sold out. I’m not a designer but they definitely got me interested in the field when they came 15 years ago.

Saw Koroko a couple of weeks ago and I think it was my favourite thing of this past year.

I've been hearing a random chime every night for at least two months. I honestly thoughts I was starting to lose it, but turns out it was just my airpods 🙄

I’m mostly a lurker here, but still a bit bummed 🥲.

I don't think I've ever learned as much about myself as in the past twelve months. I could almost make a LinkedIn post like "What losing my dad taught me about having strong opinions" 😅

Started using Ghostty and wrote a quick thing about how to enable ligatures fonts that split them in different stylistic sets (like GitHub's Monaspace family):

no idea why, but I just thought about the EO1 / Electric Objects. that was such a good idea

So long, and thanks for all the fish. Thanks again @andy, @mehdi and @shen !

This is a post that won't make sense if you don't speak french but I've been using vim/nvim for 15 years and still chuckle everytime I type `dtc` 😅

About to receive the first payment of a solo project :)

The unfortunate thing is that I don't like that project and it's my friend paying, but still 😅

It seems like a tradition at this point: I received a new mechanical keyboard yesterday and I bricked it immediately 😅

Truly feeling conflicted with LLMs and other "AI" products.

Finally installed Copilot because I felt too lazy writing tests. It is really impressive 😮

Finally caved and got refurbished AirPods Max. They're really nice. 🎧

I live in the middle of nowhere, Burgundy, France and saw I "Free Luigi" tag this morning 😬
