    Ah shit.

    Breaking News: Anthony Bourdain, whose memoir about the dark corners of New York’s restaurants started a TV career, died at 61. CNN said the cause was suicide.

    Definitely the DLR. Do the people who write for the Standard even live in London?

    And this is a crap story about Woolwich. Can't decide what's the best part, the awkward photo of the couple all in white, the assumption the area is nice now it has a posh estates agent, or the DLR correction.

    What the actual fuck. On the upside, the LA Times can't figure out GDPR, so I can't hate read this.

    Hate on Jordan Peterson all you want, but he's tapping into frustration that feminists shouldn't ignore. If feminists don’t like his message, maybe they should offer a better one. (via )

    Wrote a thing about tube psychology for Wired. Can you believe people pay me to nerd out? It's amazing.

    It's gross that the Standard is selling out like this, but it's also gross that Google and Uber are taking Osborne up on this offer. Don't want bad coverage? Stop being assholes.

    Revealed: how firms like Google and Uber have bought positive news coverage in George Osborne’s Evening Standard - in a secret, lucrative £3 million deal. But will any other UK media pick it up?

    This really is getting stupid. They are using my data as they just sent me a marketing email (which is fine with me, I agreed to it) but I can't shop? Lol wut?

    Wrote a thing about baggage policies and somehow ended up sympathising with Ryanair.

    If Alexa can mishear its own name, instructions to send a message, a contact name, and confirmation, then Alexa isn't very fucking good, is it?

    I wrote about space and brexit.

    The UK should prioritise other space infrastructure rather than battling EU diplomats over the Galileo satellite system

    Happy Friday. I'm going to have an ice cream to celebrate. Perhaps a 'Sand & Cream'? Oooh, maybe an 'Oh and Cinnamon'. No, 'Mango Cats'!

    Bloody coffee, strawberry cream disease, silence cherry, lemon cream grassplay, mango cats, brown crunch, peanut butter slime, bug, pumpkin trash break
    Ms. Johnson's middle school coding classes kicked my butt at neural network ice cream naming. Please enjoy their flavors:
