Yes. Actually connecting, that's the difference!

Hope you're well 🤗

It's a platform which hosts many different communities.

Best way to get started is via the discovery page.

Search for a hobby/interest/subject, find a free group, or paid if you fancy, and click the button to join that community.

The closest I have found is Skool.

I run a couple of communities there and have now met many, many people, and formed strong connections via posts/comments/DMs and IRL events.

Soon after joining one Skool community I flew to Germany (from the UK) to meet up with other members.

It gives me hope!

100% it's truly horrendous. Many of the games on the stores are essentially minimal effort ad 'wrappers'.

I have had some success with running PiHole on my home network. Seems to do a pretty good job at blocking a lot of them...

Thank you! I gave up on Twitter this evening. Always unlikely we'd sign many on the last day.

Like you, I get the mood, but the signs were there on Saturday that this team can do better than they're currently managing.

Can we score enough goals? That's the biggest unknown for me.

Wait, I thought the future of shopping was a virtual 3D world where you had to navigate around a virtual space and select the things you want to buy?

I wish they'd just make their minds up honestly!!

If you ever find yourself doubting your abilities, thank that part of you for trying to keep you safe.

Then ask it, politely, to let you focus on the job at hand.

You've got this 👊

Negative self talk prevails.

"This is taking too long",
"You've architected this badly",
"That's some of the worst code I've EVER seen!"

But you know what?

Deep down, I know it's just shame, and fear, and all those other by-products of human evolution.

At one point there were a handful of popular Red Dwarf fan sites, and mine was one of them.

And it set me on a path.

I've now been coding, professionally, for 25 years...

But to this day, I doubt myself all the time.

Yeah feels like there has to be a new target man incoming…

Ha ha, been there with something like this.

Demoing a feature to a higher up, who questioned the slow performance.

We spent ages looking everywhere for the problem.

Everywhere except the line where we'd hardcoded a delay during testing 🤦

As my brother noted yesterday, there are similarities here to that Cotteril season where we started terribly, and he eventually abandoned the style of play he was trying to implement because the players weren't up to it (and started going much more direct etc)
