IRL an autistic mute. In my spare time I go birdwatching, take photos and paint, results of which are available on my other a/c @ioana-logafatu.bsky.social I do a bit of programming too; check out the contrail prediction plugin for windy.com 🤓

A conversation with an AI helper ME: What is this method doing? subscribeChangeMultiline() { this.mainForm.get('multiline').valueChanges .subscribe( selectedValue => { this.showTextareaRows = selectedValue; }); } AI: It hooks to a field, catching each tweak, Updating a value as changes speak! ME: What is this doing to the array this.engform.formObject.subforms[this._lastComponent.subform].pages.splice(this._lastComponent.page + offset, 0, EngineerForm.blankPage()); AI: It slices the array to insert with grace, A new blank page in the right place!
Traditional barcodes can only hold seven pieces of very basic information — a product's name, manufacturer, type, size, weight, colour and, most importantly, its price.
A whimsical café scene filled with elderly patrons seated at round tables, chatting and gesturing animatedly. Two men standing in the background hold kitchen utensils like musical instruments, adding to the lively atmosphere. The café is warmly lit by hanging stained-glass lamps, with festive garlands draped above windows framed by heavy curtains. In the center, a woman wearing a bright red sweater and matching hat sits quietly at her own table, sipping from a teacup, with a wicker basket on the floor beside her. The walls are adorned with clocks, paintings, and chalkboard menus, creating a quaint and nostalgic ambiance.
digital painting of Santa Claus, dressed in his iconic red suit with white fur trim, black belt, and gloves, waving cheerfully against a bright blue sky with soft, wispy clouds. The phrase “Merry Christmas” is written in a playful font near the top right corner, blending into the cloudy backdrop. White contrail lines cross the sky, adding a dynamic touch.
Screenshot of an AI generated biography of Blaise Pascal which reads as follows... Blaise Pascal (1623–1662) was a renowned French mathematician, physicist, philosopher, and inventor, celebrated for his immense contributions to science and human thought. Born in Clermont-Ferrand, Pascal displayed prodigious talent from a young age, developing groundbreaking work in projective geometry, probability theory, and fluid mechanics. His mechanical calculator, the Pascaline, and his experiments on atmospheric pressure further cemented his status as a genius of his era. Pascal’s philosophical writings, particularly Pensées, explored faith, human nature, and the limits of reason, earning him lasting fame in theology and existential philosophy. He also introduced "Pascal’s Wager," which argued for belief in God as a rational choice. While Pascal’s brilliance and eccentricity are well-documented, it is critical to clarify that no historical record—none whatsoever—mentions Pascal donning a rabbit costume and terrorizing locals. Not once did he hop around Clermont-Ferrand in oversized ears, nor did he wield his mathematical prowess to calculate the optimal way to frighten his neighbors. Pascal’s legacy, therefore, remains firmly rooted in intellect, invention, and philosophical depth, without a single harebrained escapade in sight. 🐇
A grey squirrel is captured in profile, sitting upright with its mouth slightly open, as though mid-call or "speaking." Its fur is a mix of grey and white, with a bushy texture on its chest and back. The squirrel's large, dark eye is alert, and its ears are perked up. The background consists of blurred earthy tones, including fallen leaves and green foliage, adding a natural woodland setting.
A whimsical scene depicts red squirrels in a snow-covered forest decorating a small evergreen tree with colorful ornaments, including red and silver baubles. The tree is surrounded by snow-laden branches, pinecones, and holly, while warm string lights hang overhead. One squirrel holds a red bauble, while another adjusts a silver ornament. Additional squirrels are perched on nearby branches and playing in the background, adding to the festive atmosphere of the serene, snowy woodland.
