Work Life Balance

🔗 The Thought

Chris Lockhead dropped a post on LinkedIN regarding retirement.

To me retirement is the macro version of the daily work-life balance.

It solves the wrong problem really well.

It’s going to be a (very) slow move - but decided to move all pages hosted on Micro Blog to Craft.

🖇️ This Is My First.

As I move them will delete the page and add the old page URL to my redirects.

COUGH

When I did that first one - found a lot of redirects that I know are broken - so maybe I will fix those first.

🖇️ Any Thoughts from anyone?

🖇️ The ‘Microsoft Disruption

Jax often tells me that I need hearing aids - but have to say I had NO issue very clearly hearing what Ibtihal Aboussad was saying at the ‘Microsoft 50’ Event. None at all. The fact that people are writing that they had no idea that she was protesting the war in Gaza suggests a few alternatives

  • they just weren’t listening because they don’t anyway
  • they block out women’s voices
  • they block out foreign accents
  • they have no idea that ‘something’ is going on in Gaza, so none of it made sense.
  • they need hearing aids more than me.

It’s a repost of one of mine.

Inspired to finally for out my Feedland space today after reading @Dave ’s 🔗 doc

Simple instructions and it ‘just worked’ - so much to the point that I am happy to link to it from my 🖇️ Blog Navigation.

The link takes you to my 🔗 news feed which is a ‘river of news’ driven by my 🔗 subscriptions - early days yet but it’s a start.

The impetus was that Dave was also talking elsewhere about adding BlueSky feeds to the list. I tried it out - and added a couple of my own. I didn’t use the handy dandy ‘sub’ short cut that Dave demonstrated.

Would be great if I could edit the title - maybe you can, but not found out how yet.

// @andysylvester - because I know you are tracking this stuff.

I am very much liking the location / check in feature on the micro.social app. It has given me some ideas that are not so much about ‘checkins’ - but are related to ‘location’. Thank you.

There is an odd issue though @manton @gregmorris - any thoughts?

🖇️ In this post I noticed that the image used in the post is duplicated with two different file names in the media library.

The post itself uses the second image - so where has the first image come from and why?

Pretty sure this is happening because of the micro.social app - since this behaviour is also on the other post which came via micro.social using location.

The Tinted Rose 📍

Talking of excellent beverages … The Tinted Rose is just down the road from PPO. Smaller, more subtle. Beer choice not extensive - but great cocktails and an excellent wine list.

Some of the ingredients for some excellent beverages at The Tinted Rose.

Should it be 5 stars?

Probably because it is quite simply an absolute spectacular gem.
