Hello and welcome to my newsletter!

Another season 2 instalment…

[Sending this out again because I mucked up the date earlier. Anyway good opportunity to wish you a happy 2022. Here’s a photo I snapped the other day, 2022 decorations are still up]

Hopefully you’ve had a great week. I’ve a few minutes spare to send out a small edition this week.

I reached some dead ends on several feature branches I had been working on. That was a bit disappointing but I was able to salvage many of the good things I learnt along the way by copy and pasting into a learnings-from-adventure branch. Not super elegant, but I got it all merged into main and it’s working. The code is much better for it too. Onwards.

The 2 best podcast I’ve heard this past week were:

Techmeme Ride Home - Twitter Space - What is a Dao? with Brady Dale - Worth a listen for some really interesting discussion about the future of web 3

Pirate Radio by 20000 Hz Podcast - Amazing audio production and a bit of music history, from back when DJs had to make their shows from onboard ships clandestinely broadcasting from out at sea

That’s all from me…

Best reguards,

Mark
