    I am pleased to announce that earlier today, I joined Maystreet Inc, a Fintech next generation capital markets platform delivering low-latency connectivity & high-precision data to banks, brokers, etc. This will be a long term gig for me, I expect to be…

    ACCU 2019 schedule just went up. My final C++ conference talk for the foreseeable future is linked, after this there will be no more attending conferences for me. It is on Elsewhere Memory, and will be the most speculative concurrence talk I have ever…

    After an hour in a queue for the cable cars, took this fellow to Chinatown. That's the last thing we are doing in San Francisco, tomorrow we fly back to Ireland. ---

    Woke at 6am to get into the California Academy of Sciences as soon as it opened in order to snag the first come first served tickets for the planetarium. Here also has a large aquarium, a rainforest (pictured), an icerink and a penguin colony. We've been…

    Here is the money shot itself, the view from the Bay Area Discovery Centre, basically a giant under 4's play area. Spent six exhausting hours there today, in the sun at least. Tomorrow will be the Californian Academy of Sciences. ---

    Today headed up the coast back to San Francisco along the world famous Route 1 which is a very scenic drive indeed. Very twisty, poor Henry puked, so had to drive the rest of it with the aircon on max and him screaming with hunger. Yay. Stopped off at…

    Decided yesterday to forego the beach and the coast, and head back up route 42 to Paso Robles, which turned out to be a very wealthy town. Visited a farm and a winery. A very easy day, relatively speaking. Once again nothing but cloudless blue skies, but…

    Elephant seals. Lots and lots of them. Gorgeous day as well, not a cloud in the sky. ---

    Big Trees Lodge, where we had Christmas dinner on Christmas day. Great meal, but cost me two hundred dollars :( The following day we left Yosemite and drove south to the coast and the beach. ---

    Some highlight images from today in Yosemite. No more Yosemite for us actually, tomorrow we're in Fresno, day after it snows which will make it very hard to reach the park, so we probably won't try. We may attempt Wawona via Oakhurst, we are planning to…

    Yosemite is certainly bigger in scale than anything I've been in before. The pictures don't do it justice at all, the mountains are much taller and much closer to you, sheer rock surrounding you with waterfalls cascading down them. Smell of pine from the…

    Outside our hotel in Mariposa before we departed this morning. It's a pretty part of the world no doubt. ---

    Picked up these from a distillery just down the road in Cork recently. They're very cheap, and for the price they're pretty good compared to the competition of the same price range. Except for the fellow on the left. He's straight from the barrel, no…

    Isn't the sun getting so very low in the mornings now? It'll be dark when I leave for work soon. But just over a month to go on this contract anyway, then back to freedom and penury! ---

    It's rare to get all five cygnets in the same physical location as their parents nowadays. They tend to prefer being off on their own somewhere nearby. But this morning they were all napping until I disturbed them for this photo. If it's any consolation,…

    I'll be speaking at the C++ users group Dublin this coming Monday 17th September. Entire evening will be just me, 90 minutes, no other speakers. I just finished the slides for the talk just there, it shouldn't be too boring for folk hopefully. And it's…

    Cold this morning. But pretty. I do wish they'd turn on the heat in the seminary ... ---

    Gorgeous if cold morning. You can see how low the sun is getting, long shadows in the mornings now, won't be long before autumn. I wonder when cygnets turn into swans? Apparently they must learn to fly before winter, else they get abandoned by their…
