    goodness me, modern PHP with namespaces and autoloading and backslashes all over the place is confusing at times. FINALLY worked out how to get my flippin' class to load. I shall format dates how I want and you can't stop me!

    Heh. "Dead People Left More to May's Tories Than Living Paid in Dues." Graphs which show that you're more likely to vote Conservative as you get older all inexplicably stop at time of death; looks like they need to extend the y axis somewhat.

    Never understood this. What's the point in getting a lovely, slim design artifact and then immediately wrapping a bouncy castle around it?

    Apple, Google, Samsung etc al spend a lot of time talking about the quality of their phone designs. Then we take our shiny new phones home and wrap them in rubber. It seems like a failure in the design that we now take for granted.
