"Blogging is more (to me) than the amount of views per month.. it can be whatever you want it to be" - great point by Pauline Narvas about how when blogging you shouldn't try to fit the niche - it's something I try to practice too by writing for myself under "blogumentation" https://www.jvt.me/posts/2017/06/25/blogumentation/ #WiTNotts

Just pushed a fix for meetup-mf2.jvt.me as it's not handling the Online events very well - it should now respond a bit better

Happy 4th birthday to @WiT_Notts. It took 9ish months to sort out the first meetup - I started July 2015. The first event was April 2016 ran by myself. I handed it over 2017 & it's grown into an amazing family. Congrats & well done @technottingham 🧡

Got a random box of groceries delivered (thanks @Morrisons). As a result just had a video call with my Mum where I said "You know how I'm a grown adult in her 40s? Is this a lettuce or a cabbage?" So how's your lockdown going?

"You are not working from home; you are at your home during a crisis trying to work." I've heard this twice today. I think it's an important distinction worth emphasising.

Ever wondered how the @zoom_us macOS installer does it’s job without you ever clicking install? Turns out they (ab)use preinstallation scripts, manually unpack the app using a bundled 7zip and install it to /Applications if the current user is in the admin group (no root needed).

I'd planned to get my haircut a couple of days before the #coronavirus self isolation, but didn't get a chance. 20 days in we called it, so Anna Dodson cut my hair tonight 😱 we're both super impressed!

I signed up for some yoga classes at a studio in Brussels when I was there for a week in January and they’ve been very resourceful in going online via Zoom due to the current situation. But today I feel maybe that resourcefulness has gone to their heads 😂😰
