I like chips with onion vinegar, privacy, freedom and my kids. In that order. Oh, and @techywife.

It increasingly winds me up no end that my wife goes into the kitchen, turns on the hot tap to wash a single plate, which fires-up the combi boiler, but she's finished washing the plate before the hot water comes through to the tap.

“Greeters” are rocking up outside polling stations to tell voters not to bother going in if they don’t have ID. If the voters turn away THEN and don’t even TRY to vote, they’re not counted as having been rejected and the govt can pretend fewer people were disenfranchised…

The UK Treasury is offering £57,000 (~$71,000) for its Head of Cyber Security. Seems…a little low.

Head of #Cyber Security for the Ministry of Defence: £54,440 Manager at Aldi: £54,900 Less stress, less responsibility, more money. Still wondering why the UK's defences are weak?!

Wish for miracles? 🇺🇦 create them themselves. Want faith, hope? Both have been in the army for a long time. Want light? It's in each of us. Today it's only one wish. It'll come true not by a miracle, but our work. Fight. Mutual aid. Humanity. Happy New Year! Year of our victory

The Christmas window is IN! But just as I was finishing it, the train has inexplicably stopped working so the maintenance team are on it and a replacement bus service is in place. Our annual love letter to #Uxbridge Town.

Lovely place #paris, but the public toilettes are trash. 2-3 minutes per person in and out for freebie autos with queues for 30 mins, or two euros for ‘luxury’ loos which are not very luxury, or quick. Pun fully intended, pretty crap.

My kids expect a made up story each night, be it a fat useless butterfly, or fat useless slug, a fat useless dragon, a fat useless worm...the story ends the same "and he grew up to be Boris Johnson" they fucking love it

"Do senior devs still have to look up stuff on StackOverflow?" Gentle reader, I have gone to StackOverflow to read answers that I wrote about behavior that I myself designed and implemented.

If you’re not actively debugging something in a separate window are you even really attending the meeting?
