Started playing with HTML5 Canvas to draw graphics in the browser – I used it a long time ago to make 3D charts using Three.js, now I’m just experimenting with its native 2D context for fun.
It reminds me a lot of when I used to make games in QBASIC, manually drawing each pixel or line for each frame of an animation or scene. Fun!
The Ibanez Genesis is really amazing – I’ve played it and the neck pickup is really nice, the middle pickup is okay, but the bridge pickup is a little thin and piercing. With a pickup swap it would be a great guitar, as it plays extremely well, especially for fast passages. Made in Japan.
Reading “Neuromancer” again, pretty much the original and best cyberpunk novel ever; great story, pioneering coined phrases – definitely worth checking out.
Absolutely love F1 TV – can stream pretty much every Formula 1 race ever. Still have to catch up on the 2025 season! (Go team Ferrari!)
If you want to experiment with AI models locally, check out LM Studio. It lets you choose a model to download, and then you can run the LLM locally on your machine. Expect maxed out processors and RAM, and a longer runtime to respond than online AI clients, but it’s cool to run it on your own machine.
jQuery is still being used across many websites as a supporting library, and I just added a link in the sidebar to my jQuery tutorial site. You’ll find UI effects, AJAX, and custom drop-down menu tips there.
Resetting the blog for the second time to a third version – will start posting again soon!
