I decided to quickly make a minor change to how some data was structured on Saturday morning. “It’ll be quick” I said to myself. “It’ll be easy” I said.

It’s now 4pm on Monday and somehow I’m still doing it (admittedly I have taken several very long breaks in the intervening period). The intent was to save myself a really quite small amount of time which will never be paid back, but I’m so deep down the rabbit hole I refuse to give up.

I know it’s petty but I cringe everytime I see login, logout, signup used as verbs rather than log in, log out, and sign up.

It’s time for my bi-annual campaign (posting a salty post) to rename British Summer Time to British Standard Time and then abolish this clock changing nonsense. If we do that way we’ll even have the gammons on board immediately, guaranteeing success.

Everytime I watch it I’m amazed the BBC haven’t managed to do anything about how much the iPlayer encoders hate Gladiators. Loads of pyros, massive video walls/floors everywhere, and fast moving motion seems to make them collapse into something that looks like it was shot on VHS.

Just sent a bunch of emails which I’m massively excited for the potential of if they come back with a yes and having to remind myself they might not.

I’m convinced the iOS keyboard has some secret sequence of button presses which turns off autocapitalisation and autocorrect because every now and then I do something, the keyboard vibrates, and suddenly it stops doing anything useful.

Please please please can someone volunteer to do this. I so badly want to see it!

Cat distress, he’s fine

Over the last 9 months or so I’ve discovered I have a really quite intense fear of heights and falling. Regrettably I’ve discovered this at the same time as the fact I really enjoy bouldering as a form of exercise.

I feel like it’s getting better but it’s definitely hindering by progress a bit that anytime I get near the top of the walls, have to make a move I might miss, or (god forbid) encounter a top out boulder I instead give a hearty “fuck this” and climb back down.

Love a windy day.
