Depression fucking sucks.

I previously wrote about how this site was built[^1] and then deployed[^2].

Earlier today I read a blog post titled Software development topics I've changed my mind on after 6 years in the industry [^1] and it made me reflect on how my own thinking has (hopefully) evolved over my decade long career.

A thought occurred to me in my mask wearing, lockdown addled brain last night: why the hell did I choose now to stop drinking?

Alright, you can read the article first and shoot me later for a title like that, and what will inevitably become a series of Zig based puns.

What better way to spend the final moments of 2020, locked down in London, than with a logic puzzle and a computer that can, well, do logic?

I recently left a healthcare company called Babylon a few weeks back.

In a way, this is total overkill for a static site.

Back when I worked at Typeform[^1], it really surprised me that they casually used a system of extrinsic motivation to reward good work, and to appreciate and recognise others.

A couple of years ago I enrolled in a coaching course with Coaching Development[^1].

I first 'got into' programming back in 2003, or 2004.

One of the most wonderful things I've seen on the internet in recent years is our growing willingness to be vulnerable, together.

It's taken me quite a while to settle on a particular look and feel for this blog.

I've been no stranger to depression and burnout.
