- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildThis makes no sense… An MP can wake up one morning, ditch the party you elected them for, & sign up to a completely different manifesto… No thanks If they defect to a different party, we should get a vote Sign the petition & help make that law. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildTo pick just one thing: here is the full list of benefits Britain earned by joining in and promoting America’s War on Terror: - It made us complicit in war crimes - Tony Blair got some photo ops with George Bush II - Tony Blair got a standing ovation in Congress That’s it. Hope you enjoyed it.
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildI've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice: www.pentadact.com/2026-01-08-1... I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildDid you know you can sing “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” whenever you feel like it? It’s literally a whim away.
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildTomorrow evening it’ll be my annual duty to vaguely shepherd the activity on the #duvetknowitschristmas hashtag and urge people to give small sums to charity. 7.30pm? Something like that?
- Super interesting presentation on there about optical technology. Something we all rely on every day and take for granted.

One of my favorite lines about AI — not LLMs but human-like digital intelligence — was said to me almost a decade ago by @galaxykate.bsky.social for a piece I wrote for Vice. www.vice.com/en/article/w... - Reposted by Stefan GoodchildPretty disappointed in both @humblebundle.com and especially in @girlswhocode.bsky.social. Please teach girls how to code, don't push them into generative AI. That won't build their skills. Prioritize foundational programming skills and awaken their interest. "Tired of long days writing code"???

- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildThe Labour Government reeling off the same far-right talking points on immigration. And look who is celebrating. The far-right. There is a political alternative that won’t ever scapegoat those fleeing war, persecution and torture join.greenparty.org.uk
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildTalking to trans women in tech can help anyone who doubts that women experience the world differently; they can provide you with A/B before/after results. Treat all women in tech better and believe them about their experiences:
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildHas anyone done a convincing "TORN ARSE" photoshopping yet?
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildBBD: The Next Generation. And that'll power a whole lot of new music gear for you. CDM stories are of course written by me without AI, as AI don't understand this s*** ;)
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildProgress on the detective game experiment made with @godotengine.org Using custom post-process, a secondary camera for the magnifying glass which can reveal hidden clues and to be able to study objects seamlessly... It's been fairly smooth so far, I'm enjoying the Godot experience 😊

- So very close to getting the LDMX software ready. A lighting desk for synth geeks. if you hate disco lights on auto but don't want to run a lighting desk all night this may be for you #cosmicsystems

- Finally set up an end to end stress test for the lighting desk software / hardware I’m building.
- Reposted by Stefan Goodchild890 people have been arrested for demanding an end to genocide in Gaza. To call them “terrorists” is beyond disgusting. Shame on you and this Labour government for criminalising solidarity with the Palestinian people, while continuing to sell arms to Israel that fuel genocide.
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildIt seems that this government are just laying the table for the far right government to come so that they are as comfy as possible as they tear into the flesh of us - every day I am a little more startled by who exactly is advising them to lose the next election as quickly as possible
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildI want to explain a few things and then it might be clearer why UK trans people are upset. In 2001 I married my wife, Sylvia. In 2005 I started medical transition. (1/13)

- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildUnlike Reform, we’re doing things differently with democracy & inclusivity at the core. From the launch to the party, conference, structures & yes - even the name! - we’re building it together. It might feel unfamiliar to you. It’s called democracy. 🔗 yourparty.uk
- Finished “The Residence” today and if there are no more Cordelia Cupp stories that’ll be a real shame. Uzo Aduba is just perfect in this and C.C already feels like one the great TV detectives. Netflix really dropping the ball (again) by not making more. Best thing I’ve seen in ages.
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildWe are finally ready to announce that EMF 2026 will happen on July 16-19, 2026, at Eastnor Castle Deer Park, Herefordshire. Expect more updates soon as we start spinning up the organisation again.
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildFeel like so much of my adult life has been patiently watching various political parties attempting to court 'the cunt vote', even though it makes everything demonstratably worse, and they never, ever get it. Fairly dispiriting, tbh.
- Reposted by Stefan Goodchild#Gaza: Today at 3 a.m., Israeli forces bombed tents of displaced people in Khan Younis as they further expand their operation in the area. Our colleague Hossni Al Naijar, was among those injured in the attack, while a baby in the tent next to his was killed.
- Reposted by Stefan GoodchildA reminder that every square metre of the British landscape has been shaped by humans and that the “natural” environment you want to preserve did not exist a century ago. We should be installing pylons & solar panels, reforesting grouse moors and reintroducing large carnivores to the UK
