So while the rest of the country is covered with weather warnings, #EastAnglia is basking in the sun. Getting some winter sun really transforms my mood this time of year. If you are feeling like grey cardboard, get outside. Anything green should do it. #mentalhealth

East Anglia version: it’s a bit chilly. Seriously, East Anglia is weird. Catastrophic floods = a bit rainy. Heatwave = sunny. Snow bomb = cloudy. Then every 10 years it’s a total winter wipeout while the rest of the UK is just a bit meh. It’s like one of these kids is doing his own thing…

Afterwards, I make a big pot of coffee and we all get into bed to wake my wife with noisy shenanigans, licks and nuzzles.

Unexpected bonus: got a new rescue dog who was kept in a small flat and never walked, so I get to stand in a field at 6.15 and see this on a daily basis. #sunrise #rescuedog #wintersun

Okay chess.com just totally jacked me and ended the game calling THIS a stalemate. I’m playing black. It’s taken me some time to beat Nelson, and then he pullls this shit. Not cool, AI. Not. Cool.

#bluesky peeps - I as checking out @clearsky.app and discovered someone I don’t know and never interacted with, followed, messaged or anything else has blocked me. What’s that about?

Met the inspiring Tate Smith (of Tate Smith Consultancy) at a men’s mental health event at the IGPP yesterday. Grabbed a selfie for the 3 trans folk in my life - because he’s proof that the journey leads to a very positive place. #LGBTQ+ #trans #mentalhealth

Is this you? I reckon I’ve been up and down this graph a few times in my career, possibly on a weekly basic back in the startup days. What about you? #mentalhealth #stress #wellbeing

Why do scammers try so hard but fail at the basics? If you want to scam people about crypto and stocks, you really should a) know the names of some b) know what they are c) be able to say something about them other than “trust me hun we going make money my dear don’t be afraid I teach you” #FFS

Okay so @smithbtc.bsky.social is a scammer who tried to get me to take investing lessons for crypto & stocks, but couldn’t actually name any. Then they copied and pasted text - with citations - that failed to pass even basic scrutiny. Sigh. #spam #scam #dontruinbluesky

Interesting Greg Wallace data point: based on his own numbers a 0.33% rate for serious complaints is normal. That makes my own 0.25% murder rate of people I’ve worked with over the years feel a bit on the low side @benstockman.bsky.social @davidangell.bsky.social @jgladwin.bsky.social

I *hate* to admit it but the #AI voice enhance at Adobe is brilliant at cleaning Zoom/Teams audio etc. If the quality is good to start with tools like Izotope & Sonible (and onboard Logic Pro kit) works great. But nothing can clean up fuzzy tinny shite like #Adobe #Podcast Voice Enhancer

In these troubled times, when the forces of medieval-level bigotry and ignorance are resurgent, I’d recommend taking a bunch of kids out down the high street and messing about a bit. It restores your faith in humanity. #positive #mentalhealth
