- Oct 17, 2022So New Job use K8s. I've managed to avoid it thus far, so I only have a vague understanding of how it works. What's the best way to learn a new tool?

- Jul 20, 2022So we were very lucky when we decided we wanted to have a kid. Wife just went to the doctor and asked what we needed to do, and she just happened to get the attention of one of the partners of the practice who did all kinds of shenanigans we were not privy to that meant we were entitled to up to 3 rounds of IUI treatment for no cost. We were extra lucky that she got knocked up on the first go so there was no back and forth and disappointments and stress (well there was some stress...!!).
- Jul 11, 2022Today I quit my job.
- Oct 4, 2021So this weekend I went to the DDD East Midlands conference in Nottingham and it was.. well it was lovely! I don't think I realised how much I'd missed doing stuff like this.

I've had a very stable job and reasonably healthy relatives so nothing too dramatic has happened, and I was never the most sociable person in the first place so I thought I was just doing fine.
