"Leeds has no room for a tram" is a great new take. Here's Leeds' tram network in 1959. 
And now I'm on a website called "Timetable World" looking at tram timetables.
This is pretty much how that Tory MP lost his job isn't it?
I have been reading various summaries & comments on the #January6thCommitteeHearings
My summary interpretation is that this is basically the values of Liz Cheney, ascendant
My reaction is to weep in despair, because those values are abhorrent 1/

Picking through what others have written about the #January6thHearings, I tried to identify what it's all about, in terms of values.
I concluded:
1) symbols
2) Dependence upon Republicans
3) Process conservatism

Before I go further into what the #January6thCommitteeHearings seem to have been concerned with, I should note what they don't seem to have been concerned with.
Outcomes. Individual rights or liberties.
Real democratic accountability.
Government of, by, for the people.

(At 4:45PM) Boss: Hey B, I know it's Monday night and your @Raiders are playing the football thing tonight, but the IT security team really screwed up and I'm going to need you to clean up their mess. Text me if you finish before 10. Thanks.

What really chaps my hide, is that tonight was the only night this week w/o an evening meeting.
Karma must be mad.

I logged in to try and identify the problem.
Our security team forgot to open the SQL port between our two servers (unsure why it was closed in the first place).
Update the firewall. Test changes thoroughly. Works. Duh!
Done in 30 minutes.
Claiming 4 hours comp time.

So happy with the @ONS right now. Just VLOOKUPed from some Local Authority codes into this population table,... and EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. MATCHED. Every one. 100%. So happy.
I've sent them feedback.
Imagine how happy I'll be if this works first time.
Things I have done this morning:
1. Helped son record an animation with audio in Spanish.
2. Found all the weird stuff he needs for his art lesson.
Things I have not done this morning:
1. Submitted my (overdue) book chapter.
2. Read any paper drafts.
3. Reviewed anything.

And then this afternoon - attempted to give two supervisions (tutorials) during which my son needed help with his art lesson and then smashed a pint pot, showering the living room in broken glass and requiring me to go and hoover to prevent injuries. #WFH going well then.
Now attempting to get the double sided sticky tape off the kitchen floor, which is there as a result of my lack of supervision of the art project. #FML.
J'aime bien cette carte, donc je vais maintenant,

Mai moi je vais faire le travail avec QGIS.

3 sur 4. Pas mal.
Et voila, 4 sur 4. Le problème c'est que les liens officiel sont morts.
According to my commit log, it's been almost exactly 2 years since I started building @desanahq as we know it today. This is how it went down. A thread 👇

@desanaHQ When we (@michaelcobyburn and @SteveInJeans) started, I was keen to build something which would "scale". I thought "if this does well, it's going to have to cope with the demand". We had no money and we all worked full time doing other things.
As if things weren't challenging enough, I thought I'd also take the opportunity to learn some new things. Enter @nodejs "microservices" on @kubernetesio on @googlecloud. Oh, and we had to launch in time for National Coworking Day (18th May) which gave me less than 5 months...
This has a happy ending but it's ridiculous enough and has been aggravating enough to be a #FML. My mother-in-law has an old Toshiba laptop. It never came with a re-install CD, and she never created her own recovery media.
It turns out it had some version of Windows 8 where the key is installed in the firmware or something. Anyway, somehow, the hard drive was formatted. Like, secure erased.
I tried all the usual recovery things, but nothing could find a valid partition to recover - the drive was just genuinely empty. The recovery partition was gone and the recommended recovery media didn't exist.
Apparently I should've not copied and pasted things I read on the Internet into Terminal. Managed to demote my user account to a Standard one.

This old single-user mode & .AppleSetupDone removal workaround didn't work in Catalina.

What finally fixed the issue for me:
1. Cmd+R to enter Recovery mode
2. Enter my account password
3. Use Disk Utilities to mount the FileVault disk (Macintosh HD)
4. `rm /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD\ -\ Data/private/var/db/.AppleSetupDone`
5. `reboot`

Just received the most incredible early birthday present ever from partner-of-the-decade @sowmyarao_ (yes, my love can be bought with the right stuff) 💖💖💖😻😻😻 #OculusRift #MuchExcite
Best thing - this is a 2 part present. One being the Rift itself, the second being the pleasure to be derived from researching and tinkering and rummaging for deals, to find the most cost effective way to power the Rift.
It's going to be a good birthday month 😬
PS: Also shout out to @karthikb351 for being the kuruvi and transporting a package of record proportions. 😘😛
