Note #19508

When do I #blog? A breakdown of my top four #indieweb content types – articles, reposts, checkins and notes – by month.

Unsurprisingly my checkins, which represent #geocaching/#geohashing activity, grow in the spring and peak in the summer when the weather’s better!

At first I assumed the notes peak in November might have been thrown off by a single conference, e.g. musetech, but it turns out I’ve just done more note-friendly things in Novembers, like Challenge Robin II and my Cape Town meetup, which are enough to throw the numbers off.

I made a graph to show how the number of large hand tools stored in our garage has changed this last year…

…but I forgot to label the axes.

Note #18760

Ahead of schedule on work project. Invited to 2nd COVID jab next week. Spent half of day working on laptop in sunny garden. Parcel arrived from @LEGO_group with Everyone Is Awesome model (pictured).

Today was a Good Day.

Note #18755

Just learned Tuca & Bertie is getting a 2nd season (thanks Adult Swim, no thanks Netflix). Super excited. In anticipation I’m rewatching season 1 of this sort-of “upbeat feminist Bojack Horseman” and (re)loving it.

Note #18572

Hey @LloydsBank! 2009 called and asked if you’re done sending your customers links to unencrypted HTTP endpoints yet. How do you feel about switching this to a HTTPS link rather than relying on an interceptable/injectable HTTP request?

The Last Supper

At the weekend, Ruth‘s brother Robin begins his attempt to row the length of the UK (by inland waterways where possible). I just received this invitation to see him off…

I’m On Fire

In 2020 at @automattic my team, Alpha, forked into teams Fuel and Fire (I’ll tell you the story another time). But it took ’til now for me to notice that our internal systems use something like the string ${jobTitle} on ${teamName}. Which leads to this excellent title.

Note #18069

Can you tell me how to get in touch with your technical/security team @firstdirecthelp? Apparently my report about a vulnerability in your website contains characters that aren’t “valid” for your sucky feedback form… but it doesn’t say which ones.
