A little expirement-slash-art-project, this image displays the individual tile graphics used in Pokémon Gold for the Game Boy Color. They are arranged in chronological order as they appear during regular gameplay. You could read it left to right, top to bottom, page by page, like a book.

I'm imagining traveling somewhere remote, spending my whole days outside doing bird fieldwork, and then in the evening in the cozy log cabin... just connecting online with this setup and chatting on IRC.

Here is your regular reminder: Don't feed bread to pigeons. Or any birds really.
I know it's a fun meme but it's not healthy for them. It fills their stomach but doesn't give them the nutrition they need. It might even make them sick.
Feed birds peanuts, seed, peas, or other vegetables instead!

Fellow translation patch developers, I'm proud to announce the v1.0 release of TextSleuth, my brute-force search utility to identify non-standard text encoding formats. It supports multi-threading and a host of useful options, like wildcards!

One of the topics that interest me is the introduction of the Pokémon franchise in the west. A 2.5 year gap since the Japanese release meant plenty of meetings over how to tackle the brand and marketing. Now more details are emerging about an averted disaster.

And to balance out my feed... I'm still working on my side project! Here's a spoiler: it'll be a tool that should prove useful to small museums, archives, and individual collectors. I'm applying lessons from my past decade of work at my @hernihistorie.cz nonprofit & aim for a 1st-class experience.

I enjoyed this year's NordicFuzzCon! I don't have a suit, so I'm super grateful to @ferix.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to goat around as Ophan the capricorn! I had a lot of fun and interacting with this glitchy LCD panel is totally my vibe!
It's #fursuitfriday
NFC 2025 was a blast, I suited a ton, but at least as fun, lend my suit out to friends a ton!
I love watching how others suit as a character and give others the chance to suit too!
In this case @sanqui.net is suiting as Ophan!

Regretting my choice of PostgreSQL now that I have a 100+ line SQL query with dynamically supplied columns and WHERE clauses from TypeScript. Maybe I want a real graph database that can do recursive queries ergonomically? It's 2025, could I get real-time and offline for free with that? 🦉🥴

Some software just has lasting impact. In 2006 I started a phpBB web forum for my classmates. Nearly 20 years later now, I'm applying those same skills professionally at work, administering a phpBB forum with 150k members! MediaWiki is similarly unstoppable.

For graphics for which the color image (NES color palette design) could not be grasped at the storyboard stage, I sometimes painted the image board in the analog way, as in animation.
The images below are the image board of the color composition in the data office and the finished graphics.

I'm back in the side project game with a brand new website and app concept. Having a blast making the frontend with Sveltekit and Tailwind, even though it's all fake data so far.

I want to make my life easier when building software, so I've been trying to check out some new-ish databases like SurrealDB and EdgeDB. They promise bombastic features, but confusingly have few users, and the Python APIs feel stagnant compared to SQLAlchemy... Makes me second guess myself.
