  1. The exercise habit - buff.ly/L2LG48
  2. They (the posts) were about Git, Mongo and Postgres. 215 hours is more time than I spent working. The net is great when you think about it.
  3. Wow. G Analytics says people spent a total of 215 hours reading the top five posts on my blog last month. It's low traffic - that's mental.
  4. @lazyatom Cheers for the input over lunch on Wednesday – useful context, and validation that it's a problem worth fixing.
  5. @pollymce 3 overlapping circles like you got on old tellies? Different shades. Or maybe the top of a couple of wax crayons (see Mac picker)?
  6. @alex_tea Sorry I didn't get a chance to pop back and say hi properly. I'll be back at some point – will you be there long?
  7. @patio11 Just listened to your podcast on that subject. Loved it. Link in tweet seems broken, by the way ("no such item").
  8. I remain unimpressed by @gklst. Their emails make no sense. This time they've tried to alienate me from "geeks" who use other languages. Eh?
  9. @hashpointfive It was indeed. Next time, we should charge for it…
  10. @benaldred @tekin No, I'd got quite into it. It was quite painful to admit that I actually don't need to make a video just yet.
  11. @tekin Yep, you need to keep steering the ship. I think I'd dosed off at the wheel.
  12. @tekin Thing is, I can't see how I could have taken a different journey. I was sold on the need to prove it, partly by my love of process.
  13. @meghanpgill Hey. Did you get my DM last week? I'm around tomorrow/Thursday…
  14. Buying and reading the Lean Startup: £8.39 + 2 weeks. Failing to realise I don't need to test my MVP the same way as Dropbox: 6 weeks. :-o
  15. @tekin @bobop @ricroberts I'm in NTP. It's frigging dead in here. Where did you all go?
  16. @benaldred Ah, freelancing…
  17. Why Cheap Customers Cost More - buff.ly/KBJTR6
  18. "I find F1 totally boring, but watching this makes me appreciate how difficult it must be: youtube.com/watch?v=U6H9Ht…" @riklomas Good god!
