Lunchtime virtual class on Albanian cooking with Deshira, a wonderful chef from @migratefuluk! Vegetarian courgette fritters… which I paired with a plate of German cold cuts. πŸ˜πŸ˜‚


Last week I gave a talk at Build Stuff 2020 about taking control of your tech career, and today I turned it into a blog post. If you are feeling reflective or thinking about a career change as this awful year draws to a close, I hope you find this useful!

Taking Control of your Tech Career


Our new German GP insisted on full blood tests, and to our surprise both of us came back as severely Vitamin D deficient! If you work in front of a computer and have spent most of the year indoors, you may be as well. We’re now on supplements to build back up again. (There’s also some evidence it helps with Covid prevention.) β˜€οΈπŸ’Š



Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
