  • Suddenly having to maintain a website everyone in the world visits daily vs selling at peak zeitgeist, buying some nice things and not having to maintain a website everyone in the world visits daily.

    I can see why some people are so mad.

  • I keep getting emails about removing negative online reviews.

    Have I been Justine Sacco’ed and not noticed?

  • Discussing the relative merits of software projects and my brain is “yes, you will listen to Nik Kershaw now”.

  • For the first time in a couple of years I have a talk idea I want to spend the time on. Little desire to either deliver on zoom or attend a crowded conference centre though.

  • I’ve muted five consecutive green block emoji. What up losers?

  • #BREAKING At least one journalist published the wrong draft atop the home page. I want screenshots, dammit.

  • Actual Australian citizens with actual Australian passports have been waiting two years for a federal court hearing to be allowed back in to the country they live in. Think about that as the rich and famous get two in one week.

  • This week I’m excited to start a new role at @10up as a Lead Engineer on their Open Source Practices team. The company is donating about half my time to work on @WordPress and related projects as part of their Five for the Future contribution of around 160 hours a week.

  • Sound editors able to mute 15,000 people chanting “fuck off Djokovic” should send their applications to careers@tennis.com.au

  • You can only keep one, #eurovision edition: Petra Mede vs Ruslana.

    Who and why?
