Comfortably riding at 160 for now. Looking forward to a longer ride at the weekend

Hauling myself up this mountain day in day out is gruelling, but that bike will be worth it. It has to be.

Alright, starting to (finally) find some rhythm. 75% of the way towards the Tron bike!

I died on the final A20 boss tonight. It wouldโ€™ve been the perfect transition into 2. Alasโ€ฆ

I tried posting videos and then adding the share link to a thread, but it was more hassle than what it was worth, tbh.

I wonder if reposting your reply would work? Could you try that on your next update and weโ€™ll see if it appears on my feed?

I like keeping my activity in a thread too. The trouble is it doesnโ€™t show up in the For You feed after a while (even if youโ€™ve previously interacted with an older post in the thread)

I had a blast with it last year! Waiting for v1.0 this year (October iirc) before I give it another go

I get so much more from longer rides on the weekend, but multiple hours on the turbo trainer can be pretty dull.

Thankfully, banging my head against the wall on an A20 Defect run on StS is seeing me through

Starting to find some rhythm. I dropped the intensity to ease myself back in, and itโ€™s worked wonders!

Hereโ€™s hoping your machine outperforms ours ๐Ÿคž

Annoyingly, if we set a no mop zone, e.g. a rug, the machine will ignore it entirely if the mop head is attached

The mop canโ€™t rise / lower, so I need to send it out to hoover first, manually attach the mop head, and then send it out again to mop ๐Ÿซ

Let me know how it goes. Our hoover is an 8/10, and the mop is a 2/10 ๐Ÿ˜…

If you're new to the software industry, or looking for a job, you really should be listening to those doing the work. You don't have to agree with everything they say, but you should be listening. Ask questions and challenge everything -- even if you can't afford to say it out loud.

Amazing! Now I just need to make sure our code coverage tools are incorporating them ๐Ÿค”

Thatโ€™s a huge win for Storybook. Great job! ๐Ÿ‘Š

Can a @storybook.js.org interaction test be used as a unit test in the CI, or do I need to write both a play function in the story and a CSF test in the test file?

That makes sense. The BBC, BAFTAs, and John shouldโ€™ve all made their respective apologies.

At least one of those apologies was avoidable, though. It wouldnโ€™t have prevented the incident, but broadcasting it is an egregious error on the BBCโ€™s part
