Kind notes

Has there been a patch for #ApexLegends that I wasn't aware of? It appears that everyone has been nerfed because I'm magically able to not die instantly in games 😅 it can't be that I'm getting better

#Spotify's Discover Weekly is killing it this week!

It's #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham tomorrow https://events.indieweb.org/2020/02/homebrew-website-club-nottingham-tkC9vJmpYDW1 hope to see you there!

#BirdsOfPrey was awesome. I'm writing some notes because I'm going to do an actual review of it, because it was so good but has had some pretty bad press. Feeling like I could go rob a police station with a confetti cannon right now!

Just got my first credit card! So of course the best way to prove whether I've got a high enough credit limit is to go to Five Guys 😂🍔

Folks using #Jenkins, how do you manage your jobs? Only through the UI? Or using #JobDsl? If not the latter, would you like a talk on being able to track all your jobs in repo and peer-review changes? While being able to quickly spit out duplicate jobs

The smell coming from Annie's Burger Shack as I walked past it is not helping my hunger!

Been a pretty good start to the day - woke up naturally with Hue, closed off a couple of stories just after standup, and spent the rest of the morning sending unsolicited positive feedback to colleagues and requesting some for myself - amazing what a good start to the day does for you!

I've just published the headlines of my #Spotify data for 2011-2019 on my site - https://www.jvt.me/series/music-in-review/ - organised per year, but also with a view across the whole decade! Enjoy a look into my music data #IndieWeb

I've found that the food tonight at #TechNott was even better than usual - is it maybe because there wasn't a huge queue to fight to the precious food?? I guess we won't know until next month, when the Spring Season starts!

What an intro from @UnchartedWorlds at #TechNott - is there anything that Jennifer can't do?!

I really hope that someone filmed @MrAndrew doing the announcement for #TechNott's seasons - the pace he went through the many awesome speakers lined up was so much fun - a very Andrew explosion of content! 😅

As @MrAndrew mentioned at #TechNott, @CapitalOneUK are hiring! Come have a chat about #LifeAtCapitalOne - we've got Software Development, Software Testing, Infrastructure Engineering, Management, Cyber Security and more at https://jobs.capitalone.co.uk

A (good) night's sleep is seriously the best #debugging trick you can use - managed to get a regex right the first time that was kicking my ass all evening yesterday!

I'm seriously wondering if #WiTNotts this month decided that to mix things up, we'd have https://twitter.com/SorrisoLearning for some stand-up comedy. Great talk, and lots of really interesting things to think about

I'm such a fan of the "selfless plug [to my blog]" - https://twitter.com/SorrisoLearning is on-brand for me! #WiTNotts

Woops, definitely leaving a bit late for #WiTNotts than planned - hope there are still seats!

I've just received the #Spotify data I'd requested in https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/12/29/spotify-wrapped-data-request/ and am going to enjoy looking through all the data I've got from 2012-2020! I may even publish my own "Year in Review" of music.

Also for folks coming to #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham, beware that there aren't many places to charge laptops, so may be worth charging before you come!

Happy #HomebrewWebsiteClub day! I've already done some stuff on my site today - managed to do a quick tweak on the bus

Pretty happy with first few games of #ApexLegends season 4 - some good changes to things, map is different and I even played a couple of games with Revenant 💀 - not sure I've sussed him out yet though

Anyone else seeing a weird issue where "tab closed" hangs around on #FirefoxPreview until you close another tab, then it disappears? V3.2.0 on Android 10

Reminder that on Wednesday its #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham! I hope to see you there to work on your personal website - be it new or existing https://events.indieweb.org/2020/02/homebrew-website-club-nottingham-8IgcYeAQhIKX

So I sorted my Webmention sending issue after an incredibly frustrating day of fighting with Jackson parsing my XML sitemap. I'm still not sure what the issue was, as I've ended up replacing my POJO with another one, but 🤷🏽‍♂️ at least Webmentions are sending again

Just watched the finale of #TheGoodPlace - an emotional, but lovely and fitting end for a group that we've come to love

Woops, looks like I broke my Webmention sending yesterday when I upgraded all my versions of Spring / Spring Boot. That'd explain why things haven't syndicated to Twitter today. Film time now, so will fix tomorrow!

I interact a lot with Twitter from my website, and as such the interactions you see are i.e. "Like of @indiewebcamp's tweet" which isn't super helpful. So I've just added the ability to mark up my interactions with some context of what the post was so it's eaiser to see without navigating there.

This is using the awesome https://granary.io/ and will hopefully make reading Twitter interactions through my site much nicer!

You can see https://www.jvt.me/mf2/2020/02/ihnc5/ for an example of what it'll look like (including photos!), and https://indieweb.org/reply-context for more info from around the #indieweb

I wonder if some people blame the EU for pineapple on pizza... #brexshit

Happy #brexshitday / #brexshit. You can stop with those fireworks now.

Very interesting podcast about #OpenBanking and #StrongCustomerAuthentication. It's nice to hear some other folks' thoughts on what it looks like both as a bank and as a third party https://fi.11fs.com/573 #FintechInsider

Hope folks going to #fosdem this weekend have a great time. I decided not to go this year but will have a look through the talks and watch live/once they're uploaded

Woops by making the changes in https://www.jvt.me/mf2/2020/01/washd/ I've also broken my Micropub endpoint's ability to RSVP to meetups, as the response is coming back with a new location format. Oops!

I've just updated https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/12/19/meetup-mf2-hfeed/ with a note that last night, https://aaronparecki.com helped me get the h-feed support in https://aperture.p3k.io/ over the line!

It required some changes to return a valid parsed-MF2 location which it didn't up until now (https://gitlab.com/jamietanna/meetup-mf2/-/merge_requests/5)

And I also made a change to render the HTML description from Meetup actually show as HTML for the consumer, as well as rendering a plaintext format (https://gitlab.com/jamietanna/meetup-mf2/-/merge_requests/6)

Finally got around to watching #Aquaman, which I thought was pretty great. Not sure why it got so much hate. Cinematography was superb and had a very #tron feel

Woops, after spending ~40 mins working on getting my Webmention notifications (https://www.jvt.me/posts/2020/01/12/webmention-notifications/) to send the author's avatar in the notification, I've now realised the Pushover API doesn't support it. Doh!

I've just updated https://www.jvt.me/posts/2020/01/12/webmention-notifications/ to mention that I've replaced Pushbullet with Pushover for my Webmention notifications service! Looking forward to getting lots of lovely push notifications, again!

Thanks Alexa did telling me it wasn't going to rain today 🙄

Hey https://twitter.com/GoustoCooking are there any plans to create an Alexa Show app for cooking? It'd be very cool to have, similar to the Android app, but bigger screen in the kitchen would be awesome #gousto

After the day I've had, it doesn't feel like I've been away at all 😅 at least I've got a massage now at https://www.beautytemple.co.uk/ now 😴🤤

#Nottingham / #Sherwood folks, does anyone have a driving instructor recommendation?

https://gregorlove.com you'll be happy to know that when talking about a different Gregor my phone autocorrected it to gRegor!

Good news: after a week on holiday my body is now waking up consistently at a reasonable time.

Bad news: that time is 0830 when I'm meant to have already left the house for work

Not sure how I'm going to cope next week without a litre of sangria and a steak a day 😅

What are folks using for free/low cost notifications for personal projects? I know https://indigenous.realize.be uses https://pushy.me and until now I've used https://pushbullet.com, but given https://www.jvt.me/mf2/2020/01/yelaf/ I may need to replace it with something more substantial

Very envious of what looks like a great day at #NaConf - hope everyone is enjoying it!

I've just announced #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham on February 5th https://events.indieweb.org/2020/02/homebrew-website-club-nottingham-8IgcYeAQhIKX - just turn up, or RSVP via https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/08/21/rsvp-from-your-website/

There are also lots of #HomebrewWebsiteClub events across the world where you can come and build, or enhance, your personal website with something #IndieWeb related - we've got one in Nottingham! https://events.indieweb.org/tag/hwc

For anyone at #NaConf looking to learn more about owning your data and the #IndieWeb, I recently did a talk about it, with a transcript available at https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/10/20/indieweb-talk/ which will hopefully shed more light!

Last night I was dreaming about Mutual TLS. Damn you #PSD2 and eIDAS certs!

Even more surprising that its a few days into a relaxing holiday in which I've not thought about work at all!

Reminder that it's #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham on Wednesday! https://www.jvt.me/events/homebrew-website-club-nottingham/2020/01/22/

I won't be attending as I'm in sunny-ish #tenerife, but hope you still meet!
