Spade: because who wouldn’t want to design #hardware while feeling like they’re stuck in a Rust-themed escape room? 
Just what we needed, another #language with a 'cute mascot' to distract us from the fact that no one asked for this.

This guy again. He was a lousy spade before, but he's a fantastic bark spade now.
Damn good workout though, especially hacking the knots off. Had to resharpen twice.
Works so well though. And it's fun! Like pressure washing. Can't stop. Look at all those peels on the ground!
The old apple tree is now a log holder.
I asked for a volunteer and one old spade did not step back fast enough, so it got an appointment with Mr. Angle Grinder to become a bark spade.
Cut off a third of the blade and ground a ~30° bevel on it, then sharpened it.
Works much better than the carving axe. I'll have to find a longer handle for better ergonomy, but happy with it already!
There's nothing like a product review by an expert - read Barnsdale Gardens' head gardener Jon Brocklebank's views on the Small Groundbreaker Spade by Burgon & Ball.

Sometimes a pictorial imagination is a drawback when reading, especially when reading a book written in a language not quite the same as one's own. I just wasted time mindwatching someone awkwardly dig a garden with a shovel, while trying to work out why they didn't use a #spade. It quite broke the thread of the story.

I'm not late for #SaturdayNightCoinShow, it turns out time is an illusion (Lunchtime doubly so). Since I've started whimsical, I'll go with the fun piece I just wrote up - an Imitation Spade Guinea "In memory of the good old days". You should definitely read:https://coinofnote.com/imitation-spade-guinea-good-old-days-uk/ - it talks of #gold #coins I can't afford, imitations of which there are many, garden implements & late 1800s #theatre! Enjoy :)

Sending FIPA-ACL messages with async Python code and a little dashboard to monitor the presence of the probes. It works pretty well.
Frans Skarman presents our joined paper on "Enhancing compiler-driven HDL design with automatic waveform analysis" at #FDL2023. Thanks for the great collaboration which brings together Spade and WAL.

Made a speedpaint digital version of another of my gym sketches! As usual, you can check out the timelapse at my telegram channel
Always fun to draw cute stuff

... for da ladies ... 
Men are like a pack of cards:
you need ...
a Heart to love them;
a Diamond to marry them;
a Club to batter them; and
a Spade to bury the bastards.

A spade was a tool used for digging, though it could also double as an effective improvised weapon.
