Last year my (then 6 yr old) daughter had a crazy creative period over a few days where she smashed out a bunch of original fashion designs. This week we’ve been bringing them to life (somewhat) using AI. It’s been an awesome experience for her to start getting exposed to these tools. I cant wait to see what she’ll accomplish in combining her creativity with the power of the tools.

Peppa Pig is a terrible show. The dad, Daddy Pig, is portrayed as a bumbling idiot who thinks he is hot shit ("I'm a bit of an expert"). A role model for no one. Bluey, however, is an incredible show. The dad, Babdit, is portrayed as an imperfect, but highly engaged, fun and supportive dad. A role model for every modern dad. Long live Bluey (& Bandit)!

New “flavour” let’s see how it stacks up against my earlier favourite aniseed @Soap21

Wise words from geohot: “To everyone working on ads, surveillance, gambling, secret research, enshittification, cloud lock-in, what are you doing with your life? Why are you selling out the future? It doesn’t require everyone to stop, just enough people. And it starts with you”

the singularity is nearer

how do I stop participating?

This one is for the complainers and whiners.

Bit of an “end of an era” for me Have been heavily involved in administering the community-based, not-for-profit daycare my kids have attended for the last 4 years Kids are now (soon to be) no longer attending, growing up So it’s time for me to pass the baton Definitely moments in the 100s of hours when I questioned whether it was worth it, but upon reflection very proud to have been involved and to have made a big impact A bit more time to continue building up the local Bitcoin scene in Perth and WA soon!!
