Berliner Links

This is getting to be a thing, missing alternate weeks. Last weekend was the latest 383 Weekender, this time taking over Berlin. We saw the sights. Drank and ate. And hopefully didn’t lose a client because of room service. Enjoy the links. Continue reading »

Just Words

I’ve been blogging here for ten years now. This is my home online. All the posts and stories and guides I’ve written, all of them end up on HybridLogic. I’m nearing 300,000 words spread across dozens of pages. I’ve read longer books (heck, I’ve read longer fanfics), but these are my words. Continue reading »

Mountain Links

This time last week, I was part way up the tallest mountain in South Wales, trudging through snow and wind to reach the top and immediately turn back around it was that cold. Hence this weeks instalment contains a fortnights worth of links. Continue reading »

Twitter Nine

Yesterday was my 9th birthday on Twitter. Nine years. It’s like a journal, a micro-diary of every day and every interaction, all there for the browsing. Here’s a snippet of what I’ve done on 17th November for 10 years (including yesterday). Continue reading »

Go Links

I’ve spent near the entire day lying in bed, tapping away on a keyboard getting a little app working. This is what happens when you can stream all the content in the world to your screen. Anyway, a big bunch of links this week, so enjoy. Continue reading »

Dead Man’s Snitch

I stopped blogging every day a while back, but I’ve kept up a steady stream of links on Saturday mornings since. Hopefully this new instalment will join that roster. I might call it Friday Dev Love, or maybe Things A Geek Just Can’t Live Without. First up, Dead Man’s Snitch. Continue reading »

Power Links

I’m writing this devoid of electricity. That’s not wholly true of course, but waking up to silence is an odd feeling in the 21st century. Even when camping I had my phone, but the 6S seems to struggle to retain a charge. Regardless, while my Drobo reindexes its terabytes of data, here are some links. A mix of funny and goofy.

Solutions

I owe a lot to my parents. From my mothers side I’d like to think I received my creative side (and an excellent beef stew recipe) but from my dad I acquired an analytical knack for exploring the world. There was one thing he always showed me growing up as a kid, and I’m fairly certain it is the single largest contributor to why I’ve become the programmer I am today. Continue reading »

Canvas Links

This week saw the 4th instance of Canvas Conf and it was amazing. TED, Graze, Medium, Travelex, and to top it all off NASA. Freaking NASA coming to Birmingham to talk about protecting the planet(s). Naturally there is now a photo of me looking enamoured talking all things microbial floating around on Slack, but it was worth it. Continue reading »
