Feeling a bit tired and run down. Lots of nice vegetables should help I reckon

The warden has decided that we will not be leaving the house today 🤣

I find it a really good sign how much Te Reo we're now getting in utterly mindless trash reality TV. Kind of a sign of how much just normal it's becoming.

On boarding some new junior's at work.

I always enjoy the energy and enthusiasm new people bring.

Few hours later....

I'm feeling a bit cold and miserable.

Luckily I have a kg of blade steak and a big red pot

At this point it's pretty clear the monkey jpeg market is a failure.

Clearly the only solution is to move to a centrally planned solution to the production and distribution of monkey jpegs.

I gather something has happened and a bunch of cryptocurrency is heading back to it's inherent value of 0.

It's really kinda sad watching people who have already lost a lot being scammed out of even more.

You can't talk to them because they're full on in the cult. I was hoping the crash would end this madness, but they seem to be doubling down.

Currently managing my anger at a overhead conversion between product managemers by writing passive aggressive post-it's on the wall

Not a bad effort if I do say so myself

Lasagne in progress

Spent 4 whole days in the office this week since we had people in from out of town.

Doing it again next week for the same reason.

Probably for a couple of weeks after that because we have local new starters.

Really nice seeing people in person again, but I'm going to be really ready to go back to my 2 in the office, rest from home hybrid.

There's that old quote about an itemised bill
* $10 for hitting the pipe
* $490 for knowing where to hit it

I realised that pretty much all I did today was draw pictures on whiteboards.

I guess they're really paying me to know what pictures to draw.

Feel like I was meta gaming a bit by the last guess but just sneaked in there.

I'm currently rereading Murderbot again.

I'm not sure what it says about me that I relate so hard to a bot/human hybrid that struggles to understand human emotions and hates to be looked at or talk about feelings.

But it's just such a relatable character
