G’day! 👋
After a bit of a break, I’m back on the Fediverse and settling into a new home with @hollo@hollo.social, running on my own self-hosted server.
I’m an Aussie living in Calgary, at the foot of the beautiful Canadian Rockies. I love writing and photography, sharing my words on my blog and my photos on Vernissage, where you can find me as @Lucha@vernissage.photos.
I also post about football (soccer), alongside my other interests, including audiobooks, movies, our puppy, and the many adventures I share with my family.
Most of my posts are set to Followers Only by default, except for some reposts and link sharing. I’m always happy to meet new people, so feel free to say hello or follow along. I’m glad to follow back, too.
#Introduction #Calgary #YYC #Writing #Photography
Since there has been a huge burst of new activity out there, and everyone has been doing #introductions I guess I should (re)do a hashtag-laden #introduction of my own.
I am a mid-century modern weirdo from #YYC aka #Calgary #Alberta #Canada that runs https://coales.co Hometown/Mastodon site out of the garage in his back yard (the servers are literally bolted to the ceiling in there...told you I was weird)
Like a lot of people here I am a computer nerd who codes a lot of #Python and tinker with #microcontrollers and #OpenHardware and uses #Linux mostly. Professionally I do #IndustrialAutomation #SCADA stuff.
That said I often (sometimes mostly) post random and sometimes weird stuff. Occasionally political but put it behind content warnings. I am generally #AntiAuthoritarian and I dunno maybe #mutualist if I had to label it.
Also like weird #WatchParties like #Monsterdon and #WeAreNameless, and cute fuzzy animals (not like THAT jeez) and #ShitPosting and I'm occasionally a necromancer of old #Memes

Calgary mourning Parker Wells
📉 Comparing the Solid-to-Tree Ratio with the Land Surface Temperature (LST) data obtained in the previous phase of the study allows for a visual assessment of the relationship between surface sealing and summer surface heating across Calgary’s residential communities.
🔥 The plot reveals a strong pattern for the vast majority of communities: a sharp increase in temperature occurs within the ratio range of 0 to 5. The Downtown Commercial Core stands out as a distinct outlier, where low LST values are driven by deep geometric shading from high-rise buildings. Additionally, neighborhoods such as Manchester, Seton, Redstone, Beltline, and Rangeview, among a few others, slightly diverge from the main trend.
