Quite a few comments on the socials about this - it's funny how polarizing the concept of aliasing is. Some people love it, some people think "it's the worst thing ever".

I'm currently on an 8-day streak of doing random little odd-jobs and writing bits for my site after spending a long time away. It feels good to feel that spark return and I want to start writing again, although I'm trying to limit myself to avoid burnout... again...

Latest Mountain Adventure Video is live! Definitely a bit of a tangent from my Go videos, but I’m loving spending more time in the Scottish Highlands with my partner Donna! piped.video/qQpDHJ73b-8

I've reached the 3-year mark at CircleCI and have been treated to a brand-new M3 laptop. Boy does this thing absolutely fly compared to my old intel-based machine🚀
