While posting an article here earlier I reminded myself how clunky I've made things unless I'm writing plain-text notes. Manually hacking the content in a JSON document is unnecessarily cumbersome. And syntax-highlighted code blocks would be nice. Some itches to scratch!

Handy new macOS High Sierra tip: you can lock your screen using the keyboard shortcut ctrl-cmd-q.

Even though I've read all the "spoilers", I'm still excited for today's iPhone X announcement. Time for Apple to shine.

In my 28 years as a Gooner this feels like the lowest ebb. Even with George's bung you felt the Club's stewardship would see us through.

Deployed my first bit of @vuejs code, swapping out some messy jQuery/Mustache. Surprisingly easy. A+ would hack on it again.

I've been working on a WebSub hub called Promulgate. It's fairly basic and although it passes the WebSub.rocks tests it needs a bit more polish. I'll probably also add background processing via Sidekiq so that publish requests aren't blocking.

I know of a superb graphic designer looking for his next role in the Windsor/Berkshire area. DM me for details if you're hiring.

Delighted after the first half of the #FACupFinal but nerves are kicking in. Chelsea can't be that bad in the second half can they?

A little test, posting from Micro.blog for the first time.

It's not often said, but well done @BTCare/@OpenreachGB. First working day after reporting intermittent broadband: engineer visited + fixed.

Previous series of The Walking Dead disappeared from Sky Box Sets today. Found them on Amazon Prime video instead. Bad form, @SkyHelpTeam.
