  Automotive rarity. I was driving to a friend’s place in St Gervais today and saw a convoy of 5 or so BAC Mono cars. Never seen anything like that on the road before, look like F1 cars!

  GitHub's CVE issuing is really not good. I have two pending patches to release, and GH has taken a month so far. Researchers are now threatening to release zero-days as a result.

  You often hear the phrase "This meeting could have been an email", well now it has a song, by me. Yes, it's new music day, this time a thunderous Muse-style rock epic celebrating the interminable meeting that shouldn't have been. https://marcus.bointon.com/this-meeting-could-have-been-an-email/ Please listen and boost! #BonkWave

  A good day for nectarines in the sun, ice cream, and paddling in the river in Annecy. Caramel beurre salé and fraise basilic, if you were wondering.

  Just watched “Flying Orkestar” playing, crazy mix of 80s pop/funk and North African music. Bass player was particularly awesome!

  After something of a hiatus, it's time for a new song! I wrote this fun, happy, slightly suggestive pop/funk track (think Maroon 5 or Bruno Mars) for my wife 🥰 Have a listen (especially to that awesome sax solo), and please spread the joy! https://marcus.bointon.com/you-make-me-smile/
