Ski time. Ladies I am totally in love with my new Head Super Joy skis, they really feel like a ski designed for women. Light, flexible, fast.

Women: maths is hard
Also women: oh this? I just do it to keep my hands busy while I do other things

I'm in my mid-40s and my best skiing days are behind me - I'm officially getting worse from this point. Well, for a given definition of "best", of course... Is there anything better than hanging with friends in the snow? Happily embracing my changing priorities

Anyway. Have a cat for reading my random musings

Here's my confession - I *love* the agile tube map. You don't need any of these things to be agile, but every single point represents an idea, tool or technique that might help you in a specific circumstance. It's not perfect, but it's a great source of ideas to explore.

Last night's treat - the wonderful Public Service Broadcasting at the minute and perfectly formed venue La Nau. Their new album The Last Flight is great, you should go listen to it

New laptop sticker is perfect for me

They're dressed appropriately, in heavy cotton capes. The crowd lining the streets are also sensibly dressed, as fireworks sometimes spray slightly into the crowd

The older kids are carrying fireworks on sticks while the younger kids run around underneath. The fireworks are quite high up, so it's ok?

I feel this is cheating somewhat - as soon as ex-twitter started going weird I trialled a fair few of the alternatives and didn't interact heavily, putting more effort into mastodon. But now there's some momentum here and I like the UX overall.

Spotted on an educational website, which I pay a monthly subscription to access.

AI is highly hyped, but the aim is to replace humans with something cheaper.

What you need to know about AI:
1. Those who can afford it will still pay for humans
2. The machines are not yet cheaper than humans
