Kind: Notes
short content: a post or status update with just plain content and typically without a title
Anyone else worry when the WordPress Comment spam is empty? It should feel like success but it never does.
I do like celebrate a victory but today I must acknowledge a failure. I put a pretty important web page into an endless redirect loop with some fast and loose admin. Sadly, I made that change at 8:10am and I only just fixed it… ?
I use Chrome once a month at work to access analytics from the major social media platforms at it almost always breaks. How is this the world’s most popular browser?
We’ve expanded our demographics collection and we now cover sexuality. I wrote about it here https://www.healthwatchbucks.co.uk/2021/06/why-were-asking-for-more-information-about-you/. Since we added the new categories we have had a few people tick asexual. Do you think we should add links to the options explaining the meanings?
Excel Chart Templates
If you write reports that contain a lot of similar charts from Excel, you must look at Chart Templates. They save so much time.
Noisli & accessibility
I have a lot of love for the noisli app but their choice of colours, especially their “brand” green (this green) is an accessibility nightmare. Most of their colour choices fail even the basic contrast checks.
Also, on a personal note, I wish they would add some darker colours and respect “dark mode” or “night time”!
Everyone is Awesome
I do not consider myself an AFOL but I am an adult and I am a big fan of LEGO.
And, I just love this set.
I do have a cabinet in my office with a fair few models in but there are very few sets out there that I would happily have in my living room. I would be absolutely thrilled to have this one on display, though. I can’t wait to get it. I hope it is widely available!
Sometimes read the comments
FTL is one of my favourite games. It is also one of my favourite soundtracks. I love listening to soundtracks when I work because I find vocals distracting. Video game soundtracks work really well because they are often low key.
Today I thought I would check out the soundtrack for Into The Breach, which is also made by subset games. Lo and behold, Ben Prunty also composed the soundtrack (as he did for FTL) so that is a must listen, I thought. Turns out it is not on Amazon Music but I did find it on YouTube. I broke the first rule of the Internet and read the comments. I was very entertained. I have not actually played Into The Breach yet (no, I don’t know why) but the comments make me want to even more.
I like soundtrack so far too. Is a lot less chip tune but suitably dramatic, especially Old War Machines.
