Saw #TheMarvels    at the weekend. Loved it. Kamala Khan stole pretty much every scene she was in (besides the house fight I could have done without her family though). Some fun concept fights - some cringe but funny singing - and a villain with a reason. A good phase 4 film.

Did a twitch stream this evening; don't often do it, but had OBS open for screen recording for work so why not. Bit of FAF nonsense (talking to yourself while playing is quite a skill): twitch.tv/mrchris2000/v/1946…

Two literal billionaires trolling each other about a dumb fight that only exists to boost their own egos, meanwhile Maui burned to the ground and could use $1B from each of them. You want to show you're a 'real man' WRITE A CHECK YOU COWARDS.

Heard someone make the point that when it was Twitter then we posted Tweets; now that its X are we depositing excretions?

Cloud is not special! I'm sick and tired of people asking whether our product works with their cloud application. It's a browser-based app. I don't give a crap where its hosted, you're automating the UI! It's *slightly* more relevant for API testing, but cloud is not special!

Been without broadband for over a week now. @SkyHelpTeam how can I get more detail on a fix schedule?

The first 5 minutes of a Product Design/Product Sense question in a PM interview are critical... and most people fail. I’ve interviewed 100s of PMs (and aspiring PMs) and here’s a 🧵 with the top 3 WHY they fail and HOW you can fix it 👇

So, tech twitter is talking titles - yet again - I'm very privileged but title has never meant anything to me, nor bands, so long as the money is right what others choose to use to represent seniority doesn't matter to me. I'll explain my responsibilities at interview anyway.

How to spend an easter friday afternoon ... beating your head against git and wishing you'd never started this damn modification.

Why am I supposed to care about emoji? I admit I do use them, but the range of usage is very low, smile, wink, facepalm and angry are about all I use or see others use regularly.. if I didn't have them I'd not be bothered, so why do we have emoji support everywhere?!

Actual sentence said by my daughter this evening, 'Ive watched octonaughts, not an idiot', when discussing sailing from the UK to US if she was the last person on earth... No idea how we got here.

So, I twitched today.. still getting the hang of the settings, but it was amusing: twitch.tv/mrchris2000/clip/A… I was trying out OBS for screen recording for work, but it was so simple to stream I thought I'd give it a whirl.
Insert audible groan
Me: My dog ate my homework. Comp Sci Professor: Your dog ate your coding assignment? Me: It took him a couple bytes.

Me vs someone who's much better than me. I don't mind dying to a cool move though. #HaloInfinite It's good to get back to Halo. Hopefully there's a firefight flight I can get into.
Hey @spicer it has arrived in London! Looking forward to reading this after work, had a quick flick through and the art looks great!

My first proper computer and the beginning of a very amusing Commodore vs Atari time in my life that I've largely grown out of.. largely, you'll still never convince me the Falcon was good.
