Huge thanks to whoever made the react-confetti package for allowing me to add the confetti and still get up in time for school this morning

Congrats to the #OpenStreetMap community! Here's to the next 100M changesets!

I got one more change in for GNOME 40: better tab completion in the file manager! It's bothered me for a while now, so I'm especially excited that I got to improve it: https://www.jwestman.net/2021/02/17/files-tab-complete.html

Huge thanks to @antoniof_gnome@twitter.com
for reviewing this just in time for the release!

A quick update to the GNOME Maps info bubbles I recently redesigned--they're now adaptive for your favorite mobile Linux device! https://www.jwestman.net/2021/02/10/gnome-maps-adaptive-place-bubbles.html

It's been just over a year... but Hourglass 0.9.1 for #godotengine has finally arrived!

It includes the brand-new, shiny UI I've been teasing for quite some time, along with Git integration and numerous bugfixes.

Download it here! https://hourglass.flyingpimonster.net

It's been a long time, but the Hourglass redesign is nearing completion! Can you spot the new feature in this screenshot? #godotengine

GNOME Maps' new place bubbles use a custom #gtk widget to display pictures at just the right size. Want to know how it works, and how to make your own?

I finally got around to writing a blog post about something! It's about what I've been working on for Maps in GNOME 40: https://www.flyingpimonster.net/2020/11/17/gnome-maps-place-bubble.html

New update for Hourglass! It's not the exciting UI overhaul yet, unfortunately, but it comes with a couple bugfixes related to version sorting. Get it here: https://hourglass.flyingpimonster.net #GodotEngine

#OpenStreetMap is approaching its 100,000,000th changeset in just a few months, so I wondered what all those new changesets would look like if I put them live on a map. Here's the result: https://jwestman.gitlab.io/osm-in-realtime/

New weekend project coming soon! Can anyone guess what it is?

anyone else filled with glee at the chance to void a warranty, or is it just me

If, like me, you got a #PinebookPro and can't get the protective plastic off the touchpad, try peeling it off with a small piece of duct tape.

I also want my money to be distributed based on what I thought was worth reading, not how long it took to read it.
