Do, or do not. There is no try
It’s a load of nonsense really, isn’t it?
There was a D-Day veteran on telly last night and he said ‘I did my bit’.
Is that phrase the best example there is of English (or British) understatement?
The first programming language I really learnt was called MUMPS and at that time, in MUMPS, it was bad practice to use meaningful names for anything
I dunno if this is why I’ve been rubbish at naming things ever since

My legs really ache from running last night, but I have to walk down a floor to get proper, caffeinated coffee

Wondered this afternoon what the S meant in #uksnow having read it UKs now
I need a sleep
Damn…..I knew there was something I was supposed to be doing today
Those politicians who are saying they will provide “a strong local voice”….WHEN ALL THEY’VE DONE FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS IS TALK ABOUT RUDDY BREXIT

This is good….a bit like Glassdoor for renting
They were asked if they wanted “Jew” as their religion on their dog tag. For those shot down who fell into Nazi hands, the peril of this was obvious to all.
“But I wanted to wear it. I was born a Jew and I wanted to die a Jew,” said Huberman
Chelsea FC to partner RAF Museum to tell Jewish veterans' stories
They can’t ALL be that bad…and even if they are. how about coming up with some different analogies???
How about…
A ‘capsize of an interview’?
A ‘blue screen of death of an interview’?
A ‘Tottenham Hostpur of an interview’?
I’m bored of car-crashes
I know I’ve probably used the phrase myself, but it would be great if politicians would stop referring to EVERY SINGLE RUDDY INTERVIEW with someone from the other side as a ‘car-crash’
…..but then not everything can be idiot-proofed!
Especially not given the extent of idiocy :)
- there’s probably a better word than ‘bit’
#TodayILearned that if you are daft enough to have a begin ‘bit’* without process and end ‘bits’ in a Powershell function, then it returns:
“Missing closing ‘}’ in statement block or type definition.”
It’s perhaps not the most useful error message for this particular case…
#TodayILearned that Caecilius was not only pater, but he was also in Doctor Who before he was Doctor Who

I’m finding vim’s spell checker a bit more easy to use than VS Code’s
