One of the coolest and most frustrating things I did was play Star Trek Online with an extension so my iPad and iPhone were the control panels.
I realised that it makes much more sense when you’re captain OR weapons officer, but I was either controlling the ship OR looking where I was flying it😂

Work uses Figjam boards for project inceptions, sticky notes which can then be copied, converted, or combined later into Jira tickets.

You may also appreciate the work of @garethcoker.bsky.social particularly the Ori series of game soundtracks - beautifully sweeping and emotional, particularly “Restoring the Light, Facing the Dark”!

My brother had a period of time where he watched Thomas the Tank Engine (Ringo Starr), Back to the Future, and Bush Tucker Man on repeat, and spent a lot of time with our Novocastrian grandfather. The wild mix of accents he was coming out with was something else! No official diagnosis but suspected.

Next time gadget! Also next time I might be braver and actually promote myself 🙃

Thank you!

I really appreciated your talk “Intro to JSON:API” (starting around 1:02 in the same video!) - always helpful to hear the good, bad, and ugly of a lived experience with a package, to being my expectations to a more realistic level for when I get to try it out!

Lap swimming can be a great way to practice mental stuff, be it poetry, music, or presentations! I’m out of practice and needing to save the $ atm, but loved laps when I was last doing them.

I’m in the middle of reconfiguring what that looks like, but yarn, books, and a Magnum Double Starchaser have been pretty good standbys.

Your post appeared immediately after this one in my feed, and it was perfection.

Learnings 2:
- Don't call your model "Event" unless you like always having to alias your class and fighting with autocomplete.
- Deleting and starting again might seem like wasted work, but it makes you do it better the subsequent times.
- Try both the CLI and the GUI, you may get different results.

Learnings
- Video is not my usual educational format, so I'm pausing and rewatching lots.
- Unless you're watching a tutorial very soon after publishing, you'll need to troubleshoot changes/drift in the material.
- Using fresh things forces me to slow down and not rely on muscle memory so much.
