I made a #typing practise web game to play with my 7 year old. The game lets you play competitively with one or more players in a typing off. I called it https://typingpong.com 😀
Useful for #teachers or #educators wanting to help improve #reading and #literacy

In a call where we're debating the better naming of a shared webhooks project. One #dev suggested we called it 'hookers', as every project wants to use it aparently.

Just been prompted to upgrade my Google Home Assistant to Gemini. Why does the new Google "Oxalis" voice sound like comedian Sue Perkins? Also, my Google Home now talks like Sue Perkins #Google #Home #Oxalis #SuePerkins #UK #Comedy

If anyone thinks electronic price labelling in stores is meant to be a consumer benefit they're mad. I don't want to live in a world where you pick up a can of beans priced at £1 on the shelf but when I get to the till it's now £2.50. This is purely to allow profiteering. Consumers will lose confidence and this will impact the poorest shoppers if they can't shop confidently that what they see on the shelves is what they pay #uknews #bbc #lidl #aldi #morrisons #tesco #asda #sainsburys #waitrose

That studio task at the end of s21e01 was brilliant, but how long did it take to film? They all looked fed up at the end #taskmaster

So I did a thing with #GoogleAntigravity last night.
I came up with the idea of a two player typing game to play with my kid over the weekend, I bought a domain for it yesterday morning, and had Antigravity write the #web application last night.
I present TyPingPong! A two player typing face off (also added single and multi player games for good measure)

Ahh yes, good old #VMWare - In 4 years our renewal licencing has gone from around £30k to almost £350k. No change in spec, just the extortionate business model of #broadcom who clearly want to destroy their business, as we're now joining in the fun other companies are going through of planning our off ramping from their products.

Are there any other experienced #coders out there that absolutely dread #coding tests? I've been a successful #softwareengineer for over 20 years now. Ive got a few patents to my name, worked for a multinational #software company for nearly half that time, worked with one of the OWASP founders, and excel on the projects I work on... yet when it comes to interviews and coding tests I flounder and have no confidence in myself. I dread recruitment cycles. #dev #softwaredevelopment
