Took a lunch break and just watched Chang Bingyu complete the best snooker match I have ever witnessed. 4-0 with 4 tons and 100% pot success rate. You just cannot beat that.

Eventually got my Wordle over 99.5% and I was right, it rounds it up to 100%.

Gotta go with headphones or at least change the station a few times. The same ads and pushing the competitions all day would kill me.

I consume a lot of audiobooks. If this is the future we will need to be diligent. Thankfully I have a massive backlog that has already been recorded.

Julie Ann asks me from the other room who I’m speaking to. No one I answer. She pressed. Ok, I was commentating on my Wordle as if I was live streaming it. I need help.

Hey folks! I'm back on the job market! Anything in the dba, data engineer, data architect space would be my wheelhouse! I'm open to contract, but really prefer remote!

Christmas Day was not even a holiday in Scotland until 1958.
New Year was the main winter festival.

Cant believe I had to turn formatting off on Notepad. Is that not notepad’s main job? To be free of any formatting. Don’t even get me started on copilot for notepad.

That free kick for a pulled hamstring on Sunday was top tier SFAing. And was not mentioned at all by the commentators.

We are insignificant in terms of size and lifetime of the universe. How lucky we are to have a fleeting existence and consciousness to understand the world around us.

This used to be standard in Scotland until hallowe’en got Americanised.
