  • I’m up to date on Ted Lasso, have finished both the US Office and Schitt’s Creek. What else is good and has heart?

  • I have quite mixed feelings about nesting coming to native CSS. A big pro is reduced asset sizes but it can lead to bloated specificity when applied without due consideration of the selectors final form.

  • My career changed for the better working at HM/Altis. I was pulled to country’s most interesting CMS project, and subsequently pulled to my five-year-goal gig. Telling Ryan he’s wrong (often) is appealing, but professional growth has its benefits too.

  • Turns out the most lockdown activity is not the sourdough starter, nor is it the home haircut (yawn, even the Premier has done that). It’s the zoom call between your phone and computer to evaluate said haircut.

  • Unusually for me, I binged the first season of Ted Lasso in 24 hours from Friday night. I woke this-morning to see a headline suggesting some people don’t like it and I can’t even…

  • It’s day 4️⃣4️⃣ of resisting shouting at a particular cloud and I’m a little proud of myself. Stupid cloud.

  • When a supermarket becomes a T2 exposure site, are @ALDIAustralia, @Coles or @woolworths paying their staff to get tested and for any shifts they miss while they’re required to isolate? The same applies for all casuals exposed at work but supermarkets are listed almost daily.

  • Never watching a presser again and instead spending the time having cat cuddles. Discuss.

    FWIW, the last Daily Dan I watched was actually a Merlino in the Morning. Recommended, five stars.

  • ABC News headline: Should Victorians give up hope of restrictions easing anytime soon?

    This is the exception that proves Betteridge’s law.

  • My garlic multiple generally runs at two but when I’m using a food box service is usually four but can be as high as six or even eight.

    Garlic multiple: the amount used vs the amount a recipe suggests.
