This stuff still comes up in conversations all the time with random people, never realised it's reach in the consulting world. I don't think it's anywhere near perfect but I'm not sure you could achieve perfect within the current agentic development space.

I think I’m finally ready to admit that Black holes and Revelations is the best Muse Album. Absolution is still 2nd for me.

Got surprised by my partner with a trip to Lincoln Castle to see Bowling for soup & Frank Turner with American Hifi in support. 😍

Maxed out the top Claude plan again for the week 😭 Too much cooking

Hopes are high. Best fish and chips shop of 2026.

I know it’s clique but WarPigs has been on my beer bucket list since day 1. I still wear my t-shirt kindly gifted from @ustdoes.tech regularly. Tonight I finally attended it! And I got some damn good beer.

I’ve not felt as empowered as I have by the magic token predictors since I learnt to code as a teenager and I’d pull all-nighters writing code.
