This is an inevitable part of the reactionary-centrist cycle. You dabble in the latest moral panic, run dozens of "maybe they have a point this time" pieces, scold those to your left for censoriousness ...

... & then discover that the people you've been supporting & amplifying are fascists. "Oops!"

Having worked on legacy PHP code for so long I am way behind modern practices. I have just learnt about auto-wiring to handle your dependency injection.

No need to write new Class, everywhere now, it automatically instantiates dependencies in the constructor.

Any idea why I get a curve in this flat 3d print design?

Any ideas for a new year's eve party for 5 year olds. Definitely having midnight at 5pm. Hopefully find some pretend champagne. Trying to think of something appropriate. Last year's fireworks?

A note for Tesla drivers. The Santa mode is fun, but appears to have a memory leak. The screen was flashing this morning. I had to drive without the speedometer. I found out that you have to hold the two buttons on the steering wheel down while panic doing everything in the car.

The home made arcade machine coming along. The 3d print worked, a few mistakes in the design but close enough to hack together.

The way to beat procrastination for me, seems to be to stare blankly at the screen until the anxiety passes. Then get back to work.

I just have to remember to stay bored. Do not allow a distraction to feel better.

Where is the moral line on using AI art for a project you hope to make money from? At the moment there is no money, at what point would I start to feel guilty?

A British government, actively talking negatively about Brexit. I could get used to this.

It is notable that Dictators always have an escape plan and will betray their supporter when the time comes.

Since the summer I have been trying to improve my typing speed. I have certainly improved my accuracy and speed but still feel like I am a long way off to being able to type consistently quickly.

Can you give me your tips for improving typing speed?

If you love the podcast, diary of a CEO like I do. I recommend watching the latest episode with headphones in. Especially if you are on a train...... 🚂

I've never understood why a rainbow is curved. I studied physics and have asked this question, but the answer was never full enough to click.

This is the the explanation I needed.

Now I need some new questions.

I wouldn't describe myself as squeamish, but I was just sawing the Christmas tree to size and cut my finger. I had to lie down with the door open for air. Not the first time I've felt faint like this. It's strange that I'm not scared of blood but my brain just "turns me off"

Do other countries eat brussel sprouts at Christmas, or is it just us Brits that have to suffer?

1st December, like all British people, I put up my Christmas trees.

Does anyone have advice on overcoming procrastination? I'm struggling to find faith in myself that I can do a project, despite the fact that I know I am fully capable of completing it.

It feels like I am self sabotaging because I am afraid of failure.
