Oh yeah, I remember that I also did some work for the Ministry of Agriculture as it was back then. That was a Spatial mapping project. It actually worked and was useful as we launched it just before Mad Cow disease, so they could map outbreaks and see which other farms needed culling.

Put me off Java completely as all the DBMS tools were written in Java, slow and buggy. On the other had you'd be surprised at the control I had with a Thinkbook, dial in and a bit of SQL over the amount of Gas and where it came from in the countries network back in the 90's

Never really had much luck investing, but my half tank of petrol that's been in Malaga long term parking for the last 5 months whilst I've been in hospital might just pay for the parking charges.

Well that's the 3rd app sent to the App Store this week, a Tetris clone. I'll keep doing this until someone gives me a job and I can escape from hospital. Or they go viral and I'll stop....

The problem with having a link on my CV to my published apps is that no AI is going to click it and go "haha these are good, let's have a chat with Jonathan".
Having said that neither is any recruitment consultant with their shiny suit and Android phone.

"Film/Book Plot"
Software Engineer of a certain age becomes a serial killer, gruesomely bumping off recruitment consultants who ghost him. How long before the police identify the killer from un-replyed to emails and ignored applications. Will they get #AI in to help solve the case?

Now I just want to open a record shop called Vinilo on a nice square in Seville with a couple of decent tapas bars,
Sort of Spanish High Fidelity where I can just make lists of regrets whilst listening to The National

Vivid dreams is apparently one of the side effects of one of the meds I’m currently on here, which might explain why I woke up this morning besties with Taylor Swift. 🤷‍♂️

Emma Gee Flowers Writing songs gives me hope, so the fact that you are reading this, gives me hope that someone might listen to them. It's country, blues, Americana, with a smattering of 70s pop. Whatever works to tell the story. I'm originally from Birmingham, England, via Dublin, Ireland, but who knows where my travels will take me. *************************************

I'd really appreciate anyone who feels able to buy my music today on #bandcampfriday
If you like beautifully produced Americana with an anti-war and anti-capitalist heart coupled with tender songs, it might be for you.
Please listen and share. emmageeflowers.bandcamp.com
