Hot take: Going nowhere and doing nothing is highly underrated, but gets no advertising or reviews.

Nina Warhurst – BBC Breakfast presenter – is unstoppable. She’s clearly a good time into being pregnant; she’s up at who-knows-what-hour each morning to work; and I swear she’s not had single day off for months.
Today she’s doing an outside broadcast from Liverpool for Eurovision.
Amazing. Respect! 👏👏👏

Finally made a little index page for my Very Useful Apps – a little bunch of tools I made to tinker with web tech, some of which are actually very useful (others, not so much)!

I’m gonna have to blog about this but I sat down to help my reasonably IT-literate sister get to grips with an old WordPress website and WOW this experience is AWFUL!
And the block editor is still a disaster.
I know so much work has gone into it but there’s still so many basic things that are so wrong.

Ted Lasso – not really spoilers
Ted Lasso continues to delight and entertain. I’m loving how the minor characters have developed: Leslie, Jade, Barbara. Just excellent and (other than the swearing) wholesome telly.

Oh right. This was actually because of the stupid VPN I got so that I could safely use the internet from coffee shops.
*sigh*

Oh gosh, I'm full of complaining right now. Sorry.

Yes, xxx@yyy.digital IS a valid email address.
But now I can't sign in to give you money to buy your goods.
What developer thinks this is correct?

Our primary school teachers have my utmost respect. It's sad that they have to put so much time and effort into getting 10/11 year olds to pass a stupid set of government-mandated tests that are more about the school (and probably the government) than the children.
I can't help but thing that outcomes would be better if year 6 was things like fun and interesting (yes, it is once the SATs are done!).

Life tip: Do not… do NOT accidentally choke on/inhale toothpaste. Your lungs will NOT enjoy it. 😬

So I swapped my small-size Apple Watch with a rubber strap for one with a larger case and fabric strap. Thoughts after a week or so:
– Do they really have to ship this around the world on 5 flights? 😬😬😬
– Battery life is actually OK. I think I can live with it.
– It’s definitely achieving my main goal of keeping my phone in my pocket/bag.
– I will also REALLY refine my notifications.
– The music app is just terrible, isn’t it?
– And seriously… these straps are BAD design! Epic overengineering.

I think I’ve been in “consuming” mode for too long. Time to make stuff!! 😃
Exciting!!!

I have a problem…
I have a new tennis instructor…
I’ve been in beginners class for ages. I’m not quite consistent enough to move up to “intermediate”.
But the two weeks he’s been teaching me…
I’ve been REALLY good! Even my serves are going in!!
I’m really quite scared I’ll be promoted!! 😬

Coming, dad!!

How do Apple – masters of design that they are – continue to make such a completely over-complicated hash of Music and Photos?
I will never understand.

Trying out the Spotlight-like ”Command Center” in #WordPress (in Gutenberg plugin v15.6.
Nothing to see here. Move along. It's too early.
Keep using Turbo Admin!
Also: Why does WordPress have to name things differently to every other project? No one has a "Command Center”!
