Welcome to my personal homepage.

  • Those early Elton John albums really are incredible. May need to make this week an Elton John Discography week.

  • What follows is a comment I wrote on Link-Din to a future software developer looking for advice:

    Have fun first.

    Don’t choose some technology because people / job specs tell you that you should use it.

    Explore different languages. Build little projects in those different languages.

    Build your own personal website and blog about your learning.

    If you go into development using react because that what people / bootcamps told you, then you will be a react developer for a while.

    Im not saying thats a bad thing, but if you dont like what you’re using and only use it because you were told you should, you will soon be in the position of hating a job that you need to pay the bills.

    Oh and dont listen to people who tell you that you MUST use “ai” in order to be a professional.

    Learn for yourself and chart your progress. Just try and be a little better at the job than you were yesterday.

    Best of luck in your journey.

    Could “Stereotomy” by “The Alan Parsons Project” be one of the greatest albums ever recorded?

    I think so.

    The title track alone is incredible. And the closing refrain of the album being a condensed version of the same song – bringing the album back full circle is just top tier.

  • Instead of deporting migrants, can we just deport all the racists instead please? They can take their flags for warmth.

  • The one thing keeping me from migrating from WordPress to ClassicPress is the excellent ActivityPub plugin.

    Its great, but i wish i had the time to port all the broken parts to the ClassicPress way of doing things i.e. the WP things that have changed since 4.9

  • Why the heck do I still go on Link-Din?

    I think im literally only there incase i need any connections for work in the future.

    And now ive found myself replying to the abundance of AI bullshit on there.

    Who am I even trying to convince.

  • Spooky month is upon us 👻

    Started playing Alien: Isolation in the spirit of Halloween.

    Already scared the crap out of me with Alien’s first appearance -skewered me, it did.

    Something tells me I’ll be back to this airlock at some point.

  • I’m seriously considering the move from WordPress to ClassicPress.

  • I just listened to a song off of the Death Stranding 2 soundtrack — “To the wilder”.

    Now i need to replay that game again.

    But before that gonna finally brave up and do Alien Isolation.

    First Death – The Long Dark

    I survived for 26 days before being taken out by the cold.

    I felt it in my bones.

  • Found Vaughn’s Rifle

    Found this rifle whilst making an initial search of the upper part of the Carter Dam. Looking forward to kitting up and fully exploring the area.
