Learning new things every day, see me develop stuff. CTO for Doherty Associates. Occasional references to being husband and Dad, very rarely runner.

Apart from the rest of it being awesome, the tip about building habits via anchoring is worth watching it on its own…

Ever heard of this crazy one-leg move called a DRAGON SQUAT? 🐉 My previous resolution was to do one... Here's how I stuck to it FOR 30 WEEKS and succeeded!!



I did something similar using llama.cpp, good to see alternative methods!

Is it me or is the python MS Graph SDK unusable and incredibly badly documented since v5 came out? @microsoftgraph #msgraph #rubbish


Lots of food for thought from @Lethain on Eng. strategy - good stuff and brilliant that he shared it publicly. Sorry I didn't see it sooner. lethain.com/eng-strategies/


Interesting - but I’d love some more information about possible paths for improving our productivity in the medium term too. Any good recommendations on that @t0nyyates ?

Great developer experience is magical, but crafting it is hard. I want to dispel this magic, and figure out how it's made, what works and what doesn't. That's why I'm starting a newsletter. Deep dives into the world of dev ex coming soon! dxdissected.com/subscribe



‘It took over my life!’ - I love this story about a lone developer writing and releasing a game. Great achievement, hope it does well. theguardian.com/games/2023/feb…


Great reporting by @kyliebytes - worth a read through

Day 2 of Elon's securities fraud lawsuit. The judge is saying the court took on "great pains" to make this happen. "I'm not going to accept 150 pages of stuff every night," the judge said of objections. "Are you devoting any other time to cases? Yeah, I didn't think so."

I have had Labour's industrial strategy open on my desktop since Truss was PM, meaning to peruse it twice and comment. labour.org.uk/wp-content/upl… Well, it's not bad. And that is the most important thing ... 1/


Really good article here on UK tax, hopefully someone can grasp this nettle (not likely in the short term though!)

I turned Lady Gaga to a Meghan Trainor song!... Also, I played all the instruments at once.



I enjoyed listening to this @RestIsPolitics episode with Keir Starmer - and I thought he dealt with the questions well, but I realised that I think this is the first time I have heard him talk at length…

Nice article here from ⁦@samcogan⁩ on the options for containers in Azure! samcogan.com/azure-containe…


Interesting how simple tools can have a big impact…

Early in my time managing the Data team at Stripe, @jeffbalogh built a tool called Hubble with massive impact. Here's what it did: - there was a big textarea to type a SQL query into - it showed results in a table - it cached the results, and gave the query + results a permalink



Sensible set of policies from @UKLabour and @Ed_Miliband - addressing the problems but being pragmatic about timescales. Better insulation could make a real difference for next winter.

I thought this report ukandeu.ac.uk/research-paper… was a great summary of where we are today, post-Brexit. I didn't appreciate some of the govt changes around farming and the environment, they seem well thought through. The technology and data part though - not so much! @jdportes
