This is actually pretty funny.

NGL. Feeling a bit YOLO RN.
Don’t worry though. My YOLO is probably just everyone else’s normal level of adventurous.
Hmm…

I need to do some more screencast recording. It’s been a while.
Was wondering if I should upgrade my old ScreenFlow license. Then researched other options.
Screen.studio looks great. Much easier for certain things. But I’m shocked that it does do any overlays/cards for text content.
Any others I should try? (macOS please!)

Summer js coming and my garden office is starting to get hot. I need a decent, quiet fan. Probably a tower fan. It’s not worth doing cheap A/C.
I’m surprised that the super-expensive Dyson tower fans seem to genuinely come up top in all the reviews. Are they really worth the money?
I’m willing to invest in good office equipment if they are.
Experiences?

Apple. Please note. I never, ever, wand to send a full-size HEIC photo to anyone. If I copy, drag and drop, or otherwise make use of a photo, I probably want a JPEG of it.
PLEASE?????

Indie software is just frickin awesome. People who actually care about user experience and making cool shit.
Wondering what happened to Arc, and inspired by many others, I checked out @zenbrowser.
Yes, it's based on Firefox, which could die at any moment. And yes it’s a little rough around the edges. But it’s GREAT!!
Combined with Kagi search a bunch of other things and the actual internet is almost usable again. And I don't mind paying for it!!!!

Oh gosh. I have some crappy virus or something. Like my brain can’t get out of first gear. Have slept. Have had day off work. But feel so weird and tired.

Reading a book on simplicity and clean coding.
There’s a downloadable PDF summary! Nice! Fits so well with the theme! 🙌
To get it, I have to fight through a dumb cookie content and sign up for a mailing list.
Not simple! I paid for the book! Give me the resource!!! 🤬

My son has been watching bits of Severance with us.
The last couple of days he has been making a Macrodata Refinement game. Identify the scary numbers.
In Scratch!
And there are proper scary numbers.
It’s so clever and funny.
He says “it’s not ready”. But when it is I’ll be sure to show you.
Scratch though… 🤯

In proof that ANYONE can be tricked by a good phishing scam, Troy Hunt runs Have I Been Pwned!! He’s reporting his own mistake. Which is amazing. The write up is worth a read if you care about password security.

I had a stupid number of Twitter accounts that I'd spun up for side projects and other crazy ideas.
Finally in the process of shutting them all down.
That's a few users less than you had before, Elon.

Our team leader put “Walk the Jira Board” on our meeting agenda today.
Sadly, it was not preceded by “Open the door” and “Get on the floor”
(And now it’s in YOUR head too!!!)

I don’t talk about work much. This is a personal-opinions account.
But it’s such a freaking honour to work on a product that I used and loved for so long.
Weirdly, now I make it, I don’t really use it much.
But now I’m inside, I see the attention to detail and the drive to do things right. It’s as impressive as I suspected it was.
I’ve had a chance to compare with some of the competition this week, and I’ve come to see that what I make is genuinely superior.

Oh what?! Kagi was build by the ManageWP guy?
I did not know that. That’s very cool.

Gave blood again today. Properly back on a regular cycle after a ten year break.
It’s SO efficient now. Hardly any waiting around. Love it.

We’ve never done Elf on the Shelf. But we spontaneously started making my daughter’s huge bunny plushie do stuff while she’s at school.
She was a busy bunny today!!

Just found an old joke…
“I’ve really had it with my dog,” said the first guy to his neighbor. “He’ll chase anyone on a bicycle”
“Hmmm, that is a problem,” said the neighbor. “What are you thinking of doing about it?”
“Guess the only answer is to confiscate his bike!”
