Greetings from Storm Ciarán…

Adam Tinworth in the rain, during Storm Ciarán.

Psst. The first one of these in months is going out this evening…

🤫🤫


Sad times: Canon formally discontinues the last EOS-M cameras, saying goodbye to EF-M

I used EOS M cameras for much of the last decade, and will miss them. But I switched to EOS R earlier this year. The direction of travel was clear. The M series is becoming my daughter’s starter camera.


Wind really starting to pick up now, as Storm Ciarán hits the south coast. Glad I don’t need to travel in the morning.


Me: I don’t know why everyone thinks I’m a geek; I’m a journalist!

Also Me: Just finished updating nodejs on two VPSes so I can update my self-hosted Ghost installs. Very satisfying.


Great to see Ghost building its new recommendations feature on open standards: it’s basically Webmentions under the hood.

I was one of the test group - and it’s great to see it out there.

The Ghost recommendations feature at work.

Huh. Movable Type 8 is out. Once upon a time I’d have been really excited by that - but at $499 a licence, not much chance I’d ever go back…

They seem to have obseleted xml-rpc too, which mighty be of concern to @danielpunkass.


Happy Halloween 🎃!

Screamer on duty outside our house this evening.

A carved Halloween pumpkin.

I posted to my Substack for the first time in, um, two years, 10 months and 28 days.

Hell of a posting frequency there, huh?

Some thoughts on mortality and over-sharing former students.


Having a gourd day. 🎃
