As a tormented Arsenal fan, thank you Ryan for helping us win. I knew you worked miracles with Bridgy, but I didn't know your divine powers extended to Premier League matches!

I've been using @talat.app for a few weeks for transcribing meetings locally on my Mac. Works nicely with my Claude workflow via its MCP connector, calendar integration and speaker detection. One-off payment, no subscription. Recommended.

v0.11.0 is out, and since we were too busy to announce v0.10.0 properly, let's do that too: hellooo new design! There's too much to cover in a single post, but you can read the details over at talat.app/changelog, and take a look at some of the updated screenshots below 👇

Because GitHub Actions have become so unreliable, I've moved a site's scheduled tasks from a scheduled workflow to use Cloudflare's cron triggers. They now correctly run every 15m on CF rather than (maybe) every 2-4h on GH.

I took my kids to see Super Mario Galaxy today. We all loved it. It’s light on storyline, but it’s fun, well-paced for children and packs in so many characters and little touches from the games.

Giving Zed another try as my IDE/editor. I knew it was fast, but what's really impressive is the polish.

Visited the @tessl.io office yesterday for @guypo.com presenting on using agentic engineering across teams, hosted by #CTOCraft. Good networking chat before about engineer concerns, AI-related burnout, metrics and security.
