I took my kids to see Super Mario Galaxy today. We all loved it. It’s light on storyline, but it’s fun, well-paced for children and packs in so many characters and little touches from the games.

Giving Zed another try as my IDE/editor. I knew it was fast, but what's really impressive is the polish.

Zed 1.0: Your last next editor.

Visited the @tessl.io office yesterday for @guypo.com presenting on using agentic engineering across teams, hosted by #CTOCraft. Good networking chat before about engineer concerns, AI-related burnout, metrics and security.

This is a huge improvement and something I wished for whenever replying to emails. Thank you!

“We are as one” - my Wordle solution today is identical to the Wordlebot’s (words hidden to avoid spoiler). Am I thinking more like it does, or is it thinking more like me?

It's a challenge. Last year I had a video interview with an applicant claiming to be in Stoke. Whoever actually joined the call was in a busy Far East cyber cafe with his cap pulled down over his face. Another kept pausing for 10 seconds after each question, then gave perfect AI-sourced answers.

I’m off to Wembley later to see Oasis 🥳 which completes the Britpop Big Four of gigs within the last two years: Blur (Wembley in 2023), Suede (Ally Pally in 2024), Pulp (O2 in June) and now Oasis.

Hey Carl! Ah such a long time ago now! You played your part in its success. Of course it was all basically a ruse to get into the Union for free when bands were on.

1-0 to the Arsenal! Brilliant performance from Arsenal Women to win the Champions League. So pleased for them. Watched it with my sons who were jumping around 🏆👏

You were in Codicote, the village where I live! We take my kids up to Spoke after we've been on a country walk. Good coffee and always fun watching the goats play.

I was just adding a gig I’m going to on Last.fm when I saw my “member since” date: 16 August 2004 😯. That’s 20 years of scrobbling (since its Audioscrobbler days). Newer than my Gmail account but older than Twitter.

I'm getting the dreaded rattling noise from one bud of my original AirPods Pro, but only when using noise cancellation. A half-hour with Apple Support generated a quote of £246 to fix or replace. I may as well just buy brand new! For now I'll use my pair as dumb AirPods 🤷

My Logitech C920 was flickering until I used their Logitune app which enabled options to change the refresh rate. Might help?
