I thought I'd try something new with my hair after literally decades of the same haircut - I'm pretty chuffed with how it turned out. As nice as it's been to have Anna Dodson cutting my hair over the pandemic, it's been nice to get it professionally done!

I am so freaking bored of seeing this same story. You left the country during a pandemic and you came back during a pandemic and there were a series of minor inconveniences along the way. This isn't news.

The Grinch is a story about how a whole prejudice community ostracized a green child, ran him out of town, and then gaslit him into believing he was the problem and his heart needed to grow. He should’ve lit all their presents up but yal not ready for that conversation

Hey @ApiDaysGlobal any idea when you'll make your website accessible? The agenda being a big image with no alt text is really unhelpful for folks, and having to log into the event site to check what's going on is a lot slower than using the website, but appears to be my only choice

Another thing you can now do with #Wiremock 2.32.0 is run your stubs from the classpath, instead of needing to store them outside of a standalone JAR - it's been on my list to document how to do it for 6 months, and I'm glad it's now supported https://www.jvt.me/posts/2021/12/02/gradle-wiremock-standalone-stubs/
