I love this image. Saturn's moon Mimas, hanging in space in front of the giant planet's northern hemisphere. The bands across the planet are the shadows of Saturn's rings, which make an appearance at the bottom of the scene.

Every time I hear a Tory MP complain about £5 million or £50 million being spent on asylum seekers I remember that they spent £120 million on the Festival of Brexit which included putting an old empty oil rig on display in Weston-super-Mare

At Xamarin I left every day at 5pm and I prioritized a healthy life/work balance - and hope I lead my people that way. I think that asking people to work extra hours just give you low quality output. And in the context of these layoffs is crass.
