Rewatch time in preparation for S5 on Boxing Day 🎉 Watched: Shoresy S1E1, Never Lose Again 🍿
I still quote this movie probably once a week. Endlessly rewatchable. The Little Movie That Couldn’t: Mallrats Turns 30 - The Ringer

I got really into rock biographies recently - here’s the ones I’ve read over the last couple of months. Reach out if you’ve got any recommendations!
RIP 2024 (2024-2024)
It’s that time again.
Via Death Generator. I can see this being useful for many, many shitposting needs.
Sitting around on a Sunday afternoon, I saw a new post from Derek Sivers and decided to check out his /now page again. Which led to wandering through nownownow again. Which led me to Wes Bos' uses.tech. And then to spending some time updating my own /now page and adding my own /uses page. And then to adding GitHub-style alerts so each page could explain why they’re a thing…
It was a productive afternoon.
Pretty footnotes using Littlefoot
I’m a fan of footnotes, generally.
Oh, hello! Nice to see you. You’re here because at some point in the future I have sent you the link to this toot. Look at the date this was posted. Everything that has happened since I wrote this, including the thing that prompted me to send you here:
WE TOLD YOU THIS WOULD HAPPEN.
LOUDLY. REPEATEDLY.
YOU CHOSE THIS.
Changes
There have been a few changes around here…
It's on!
It’s all happening!
RIP 2021 (2021-2021)
Not much happened this year, so this will be brief.
I lived in Boulder and Denver for quite a while. The more time that goes by, the more I miss it.
Work setup for late 2021
I did this earlier this year, but things have changed quite a bit since then.
SSH client_loop fix
I had a weird issue today after a recent macOS upgrade.
Work setup for 2021
I’ve been working from home full-time for three years as of today. While it’s not perfect, my setup has come a long way since then – originally I had a tiny 60cm x 100cm (24" x 40") desk wedged between my bed and a window. Nowadays I have a separate office, which helps a lot with establishing boundaries between work and home.
Blog 4.0
Deja vu all over again
This seems awfully familiar…
RIP 2020 (2020-2020)
Die in a grease fire, you utter bastard of a year.
Thought experiment
Recently I was thinking about my career goals, and one of them is that somewhere in the next few years I’d like to build a recruitment function from scratch within a small to medium business. I had a think about a few things I’d put in place if I were to do that today.
Finally got some work! I’m helping out A Cloud Guru with some technical and non-technical roles, via Crew Talent Agency. Thanks to Simon for the opportunity ❤️
