Behind the times as always, but just finished Andor season 2. A masterpiece that show, from start to finish. And it makes Rogue One (a film I already loved) even better.

Penalties shouldn't be filmed from right behind the penalty taker. It completely hides the pace of the ball and its position relative to the goal. The angle that penalties are (were) normally filmed (kind-of 45 degreeish) is perfect.

Another one for my "what I hate about modern football" list. 🤣

Half time in extra time should be longer so you've got time to make a cup of tea and go for a wee.

HS2 was doomed to be a mess before it began, say insiders

HS2 has caused so much disruption and heartache around where I live. Such a waste of money.

OK, one person I told I was learning React told me to have a look at Svelte. And gotdamn, he was right. Svelte is lovely. But still going to learn react for the CV

The "use jquery for everything" period was the last time I really did anything browser-side. WebForms with some jquery.... those were the days. 😆

If there's one thing for certain, it's that if you tell someone you're learning a front-end framework, they'll tell you about 2 others that you should be learning instead.

If I wasn't having to do this to tick a box with recruiters, I'd just use plain old JS (_maybe_ TS) and HTML and these massive frameworks could get stuffed. 😂

Seems to still be the case. React's "Getting started" is very much: choose this, choose that etc etc. Angular seems much simpler to get started with, but not as career-friendly unfortunately.

LOL. This "React for beginners" youtube vid really is for beginners. Beginners to computers it seams. I imagine pitching the level is difficult for a tutorial, but surely you need to make _some_ assumptions. Like they know how to copy and paste, know where the angle brackets keys are.

I do love the Wimbledon tradition of no sponsorship. Oh, except for Range Rover, Rolex, IBM, Barclays and Emirates. 🤣

Oh good, I was worried for a moment as I hadn't seen Micah Richards on TV for at least 24 hours.

I got unintentionally spoiled about what happens in TLOU part 2 while I was still watching series 1. Didn't think they would _actually_ remove the one thing some people are watching the show for. 🙄
