  • Let’s talk about resets

    I had to do one larger one, so I’ll give you the full list. This is basically an undo.

    On Tumblr:

    I had to undo the rename of my tumblr, and went back to Code & Canvas.

    Used XKit Rewritten to replace the tag “mario breskic” with “code and canvas” for my posts.

    On social.mariobreskic.de:

    Renamed the “mario breskic” tag to “code and canvas” in WordPress.

    Replaced the links to mario-breskic.tumblr.com with codeandcanvas.tumblr.com using phpMyAdmin

    UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = REPLACE(post_content, ‚mario-breskic‘, ‚codeandcanvas‘) WHERE post_content LIKE ‚%mario-breskic%‘;

    Replaced the string “Mario Breskic” with “Code & Canvas” but only in posts tagged “code and canvas” using phpMyAdmin

    UPDATE wp_posts p
    JOIN wp_term_relationships tr ON p.ID = tr.object_id
    JOIN wp_term_taxonomy tt ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id
    JOIN wp_terms t ON tt.term_id = t.term_id
    SET p.post_content = REPLACE(p.post_content, ‚Mario Breskic‘, ‚Code & Canvas‘)
    WHERE p.post_type = ‚post‘
    AND t.name = ‚code and canvas‘
    AND p.post_content LIKE ‚%Mario Breskic%‘;

    Struck the previous changes from my changelogs on my websites and added a note that I have done so.

    Made link changes on my homepage and on my bento.me, too.

    Same with other socials with more link options, like Artstation, Bēhance, Facebook.

    I used an AI (Copilot) to write the SQL for me.

    All in all, this should get me to at least 80% of the reset. There might be something I’ve overlooked but this is alright for now.

    As resets go, this one has been smooth.

    I think I’ll grab a splatbook and sit down with a cup of caffeine‑free coffee.

  • Had to reset my tumblr’s name. Since I have a few automations in place, like backing up relevant social media posts to several places, I am glad an AI wrote the SQL I needed for that. #buildinpublic

  • Found an old app called “Pixel is Data” while looking for other apps I’ve bought through the years. I am keeping this one, I think.

  • So far, The Final Destination, also known as Final Destination 4 is the weakest in the series.
    But its dullness is useful in other ways, if you can appreciate this. #asca

  • Welcome back to my after‑hours. This means that I’ve been working on my work again. I needed to fix a few things which I thought I’d properly fixed before.

    And I needed to get back into keeping a diary, for my own sake.

    You know, I think that writing things down, in your own hand, is a sort of self‑programming or self‑designing.

    So far, I am really happy to have bought a notebook by Leuchtturm1917 a few months (or maybe years) ago, since it does a few neat things for me: it comes with stickers for the cover, and a table of content which you can fill out yourself.

    I am always on the lookout for better notebooks, of course, and I ended up using Leuchtturm1917 ones because I find Moleskine notebooks too expensive by far (but there are even more expensive ones out there).

    Speaking of taking notes in general, I’ve decided to clean out my iPad in a way which makes it useful for my work and studies, much less useful for everything else: I’ve deleted all messaging apps from my tablet (and my laptop as well) and decided that messaging belongs on my smartphone and my smartphone only.

    I used to think that having a sort of meta‑computer for which each of my devices is a representation of would make sense for me, but it turns out that this didn’t work out for me at all.

    Instead, I want each device to have its own function, and I want to be aware of said function.

    It’s not set in stone, but I am getting to something here.

    In general, the tablet is for sketches and notes, the laptop is for more serious work, the smartphone is just for fun.

    And I’ve lowered my computer table, too!

    How is your work setup in 2025?

  • Scanned my diary’s cover.

    I’ve always loved what scanning does to print objects.

    You can find the uncompressed version on my flickr here, for panning around and zooming in.

  •  

    Scan of my diary. I find that scanning does something to (mostly) paper and print I find I love.You can find the uncompressed version on my flickr account which you can zoom and pan around as it pleases you (the original is, of course, huge).

    If you know, you know.

  • I still think of the design system I called “human‑oriented design” in my thesis, in contrast to “human‑centered design”. I wanted to write that I worry that it does not have the fortitude to compete with human‑centered design but now I think that maybe it does not have to.
    Maybe having (an) alternative design system(s) is sound in itself: mine just starts with the human being and its needs, instead of starting with the product and then approximating the human.
