I tried listening to the Lord Of The Rings audiobook but had to give up because it was too much Tolkien.

A product that (almost) everyone uses from mid-sized tech companies and up but I rarely hear talked about: Grafana

In The Pragmatic Engineer 2025 survey, it had more mentions than Cursor, and dominates as the answer to "how do you turn information into graphs"

This is Grafana:

We take tariffs on our beautiful Heard Island very seriously. We will be consulting all mammals and flightless birds and will make an announcement in the near future detailing our response. #heardisland #tariff #mcdonaldisland #trumptariff

For a second I thought you were talking about this 😅: www.imdb.com/title/tt1092...

I regret getting rid of my PS3, I've been tempted to get one just so I can play the Skate games again.

🤣I used to bite my nails when I was younger so my mum bought some stuff to paint on my nails which tasted horrible, in the hope that it would deter me. However, it tasted so bad that I wouldn't let her apply it again so it didn't really work. I'm assuming the batteries will taste the same.

I suspect that bitrex is one of those products which was invented by accident and then they had to figure out what they could use it for!

Apparently it's bitrex, "the bitterest substance in the world".

Yes, I am so bored that I googled what batteries taste like.

I've completed A Night With Mrs. Claus - Advent of TypeScript 2024 adventofts.com/events/2024/8

It's so strange, like yesterday, my solution didn't work at first but then I typed it in again and the tests passed.

Potential SPOILERS below. Although, it could be that I've done this completely wrong in which case it's not much of a spoiler!

I can't get past day 8. I'm sure I've done what I need to but the tests aren't passing. I had a similar issue with Day 7, it's like the tests don't re-run 🤷

I always think it should be pronounced "versus code" like you're fighting with the code.

People used to be warned about misinformation online but now we've actually built misinformation machines and that's apparently fine.

I just completed "Mull It Over" - Day 3 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/3

Part 1 seemed really easy and then I completely fell apart at part 2, tried to do _way_ too much with regex!

I just completed "Red-Nosed Reports" - Day 2 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/2

These seem pretty hard for day 2, vastly different of the level Advent of Typescript has started at. Let's hope they don't get massively more difficult else I won't make it past day 4!
