The penultimate day of #WeblogPoMo2024. I'd been checking in on Annie and then by chance listened to Hemispheric Views. Can you guess what I'm thinking of doing?

I had the great fortune to be a co-author on an e-book for Microsoft. The book looks at how developers can use the Power Platform alongside business users to quickly create Apps that meet real business needs.

I've had the chance to write in AsciiDoc in IntelliJ IDEA. I was impressed by IntelliJ's onboarding experience. After installing the app, you can choose to go through a guided tour of the UI. The AsciiDoctor plugin was great as well, providing syntax help and exporting the docs as a PDF.

My Mum's been taken to hospital. She's got a severe case of diarrhoea and was dangerously dehydrated. The problem is: I'm four hours away by car and don't think being there can help her. 

I missed my first day in #WeblogPoMo2024 yesterday. It was a Saturday, so I can't blame a busy workday. I obviously have a reason. But I want to sit with the feeling of failure.

This is the latest in the day that I've posted for #WeblogPoMo2024. I've fallen off the dog walking with bare ears for the last two days. Connected yesterday and ATP today. I really wanted to hear what the boys had to say about Copilot+PCs.

Procrastination. I make fun of my Wife and Daughter when they procrastinate on doing something. I call them the ‘pro-cras-ti-nator’ and do a little robot dance. 

We've been having some unseasonal sunshine here in the UK. Today we got back to more of what I'm used to. Nice warm consistent drizzle. 

I've just finished Fallout. Not the game, the TV series. In fact, being on a Mac and not having a PlayStation or Xbox means I can't have played the game. If they released a Switch version, maybe.

Employee surveys. Large companies think that, "Listening to their employees", is important. The problem is that sometimes what an employee's saying isn't something they want to hear — or really address.
