I've never missed a band as much as I miss Mutemath.

I don’t know how long this has been a thing but Apple Music’s Classical app has this really cool listening guide for a good number of pieces! VERY cool.

Almost all my socials are geolessel but my blog/personal site has long been at geoffreylessel.com. I think I'd like to keep the full name as canonical for my writing and I could of course redirect/mirror the other domains to that as well.

I have been undecided on this point for a LOOONG time and I still can't decide. Inaction isn't working for mean anymore. So not I ask you: do you think I should make my bsky handle @geolessel.social, @geolessel.com, or @geoffreylessel.com?

as is - EP by avenglow on Apple Music Album · 2025 · 5 Songs

Today’s the day! Avenglow’s (my daughter) EP is out. Go have a listen. I’m pretty sure you’ll like it. music.apple.com/us/album/as-...

I am fortunate to have been able to see the opera by my favorite composer (Debussy) from the Vienna Opera House a couple of days ago. It was amazing.

Maybe I'll get paid in hugs

❤️ she's gonna love hearing that!

little love notes + songs about you

Here's a link for you Spotify peeps: open.spotify.com/track/65Xh1R...

little love notes + songs about you - Single by avenglow on Apple Music Album · 2025 · 1 Song

The first thing I did today was listen to my daughter's (artist name of Avenglow) new single, "little love notes + songs about you". I suggest you do as well! music.apple.com/us/album/lit...

I DO like it!

One apparent benefit of giving a rushed talk at #elixirconf is inspiring a well written deep dive into the same subject! Nice post @peterullrich.com and thanks for the shoutout. ❤️

Nice!

Love me some binary pattern matching!

Nice! I just saw this post this morning (but haven't read it yet).

I mentioned ADS-B signals in my ElixirConf talk about binaries and bitstrings. I first tried out SDR over 10 years ago but haven't gone back to it in a long time. I bet it's much better now; I'm considering trying again. I think it'd be cool to show the info of aircraft as they pass over my house.

Ummm, pardon me? Nice! Well done.

iPhone notification - “Gentle nudge from Wavepal: Hey Jesse, send a friendly wave to Jessica McCabe today. 👋”

Got this lovely notification today, reminding me to reach out to a friend!

Hoping to get this early version of the iOS app out to our beta users soon.

Livebook Examples from Advanced Functional Programming with Elixir It feels a bit impolite to ask readers to download code and type mix commands just to run the examples. We have better tools now.

Looks like the link in the og post 404s for me. This one works though! www.joekoski.com/blog/2025/09...
