Emailed magic links can be a great way to deal with authentication but please don’t make them single use, put a time limit on them instead. There’s one service I use which has single use tokens, which means that I’ll request a link, and then I can only use the service within the GMail app on my phone because any interaction with the link will cause it to be loaded.

@blogdiva @CatherineFlick I also missed this bit and now feel I’m going to have to go back and watch the whole show from the beginning.

I’ve just howled with laughter through a three episode special in which two lead characters went on a cruise, where naturally the ship was attacked, had a hole blown in the side, and capsized in the middle of a hurricane. The script writers are clearly having the time of their lives.

Environmental story telling.

How am I meant to work when this level of shit posting is going on?

I have once again been struck by an immense sadness that I’m probably never going to space.

When did companies get so needy, and why? Now up to three emails from South Western Railway begging me to tell them what a good job they did since I went to London last week.
