A service I would like to exist: a storage facility which I can send items to/request items from without having to do so myself. Surely I can’t be the only person with lots of hobbies they’re periodically into, a tiny flat, and no driving license.

I’ve once again been told in a podcast ad that Nando’s are “shaping the future with AI” and I just don’t get why anyone would think that’s a plausible line. They make chicken with varying degrees of spiciness, this is in no way shaping the future. It’s barely shaping the present.

Can we please agree on a single name for whatever this social media thing is, preferably one that doesn’t make me cringe whenever I have to use it?

Having one of those days where I really get why everyone is so keen to just go build some completely new software for their specific needs as I attempt to glue together half a dozen open source servers into doing what I want them to.
Long term this should work well, and I get to build on top of incredibly well tested software that I know will scale. Short term I can’t help but think it would be easier to write some code that does exactly what I want.
My work day so far has mostly consisted of opening tickets for other people. I’d better write some code before I start turning into a middle manager and have the urge to log in to LinkedIn to share my wisdom on how all my greatest achievements were done by other people.
The thing I don’t get about Minecraft drama YouTube is it’s all obviously scripted and yet the scripts are just people shouting BROOOO and YO, LET’S GO! Over each other.
At the climbing gym where someone’s got an advert up for a home wall. Regrettably it’s *just* too big to fit in the end of a shipping container, although this is probably a good thing because I don’t really need to add “buy a shipping container” to my todo list.
@pikesley I’m not sure why YouTube decided I needed to see this channel where someone live codes music with Strudel with a somewhat haunting narration but I’m glad it did, and think it would be up your alley. https://youtube.com/@switch-angel
