Ok we made it to the ferry (and are in fact on it now).

The middle picture is to show the antenna on the roof which is part of the Galiano network www.galianonet.org that @avibryant.com helped setup

The Entrepreneurial State - Wikipedia

I read "The Entrepreneurial State" by Mariana Mazzucato a few years ago. Pretty US centric but might still be worth a look: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ent...

I went to some lengths to take that picture 😆

Sign saying "No WiFi but lots of Schnaps"

One of the great things about the alps is that you can always get food and drinks on the mountain. Otto-Mayr-Hütte says "No we don't have WiFi but loads of Schnaps". Pretty good views, too.

Große Schlicke, Austria. The alps on one side, the lakes and towns around Neuschwanstein castle on the other.

Overgrown building with solar panels

German patio garden

At home in Germany. Helped install more solar panels, now relaxing on the patio on the wooden bench I grew up on.

We should make patches for camp!

Frankfurt bound shot of the Howe Sound Crest trail (HSCT) as a reminder to finally hike it when I'm back!

Ferry booked, car rented. Let the hacking and music commence!

I first saw Faun over 20 years ago at a small medieval festival in my home town in Germany. Glad they made their way to Vancouver.

Woohoo! Congratulations again! What a great weekend!

The real AI battle isn't about who has the best model—it's about who controls your context. I just published a piece on why keeping these layers separate is the most important design decision of the AI era: www.techdirt.com/2025/06/16/w...

Started using @zed.dev as my main editor last week. It's fast, has Intellisense that works and supports local models. Made me realise how janky VSCode (and its billion dollar forks) have actually gotten.

Erik the Red trail at Grouse Mountain

It was nice out there yesterday, too.

After many days (and nights) outside in the Canadian mountains I finally got to (safely) encounter a wild bear friend 🐻 skipping down a snowy trail. We both went our merry ways after this picture.
