Sometimes I wonder why people follow my Twitter account and what they expect. You might all be disappointed, but I will continue with a mix of technology, random and cryptic stuff, so bear with me and enjoy!

@MorganHassall13 @LNER That looks like Doncaster in the dark

@Dragonlady152 Morning Kyla, hope you have a good week

Morning x

Are there nice people? Are there people doing good? The answer to both is yes! We really do need to hear the good news.... youtu.be/skWhyRslJU0

@tessak22 Happy Birthday! Hope you have a nice day

It’s my birthday and for the first time in a few years, I feel like my goofy, silly self again! So thankful for life and my blessings today. 🥳

@uxian @BritishGas Nothing ever turns into a consumer saving

@geoffdoesstuff @BritishGas The only way it reduces energy is frightening you into changing your behaviour. It increases profit margins that somehow never turn into consumer savings.

The tactics of @BritishGas increasingly trying to imply that a smart meter is mandatory in their communication really does fill me with contempt for them.

@charlottebsmith The best time of day, especially in Spring and Autumn

Sunrise - I love my job.

@DimitriHoutart @SyngentaGroup Every day is a lesson!

@geoffdoesstuff @SyngentaGroup Good point! It’s interesting as it is actually the biggest r&d life science centre in the UK, but many people have never heard of it.

We're building a world-leading research center for agricultural bioscience – powered by advanced technology and AI at our Jealott's Hill R&D hub in the UK. The Biological Sciences Technology Center will be the next chapter in how we discover, design and deliver sustainable solutions for farmers globally. UK Farming Minister Dame @angelaeagle said: “Syngenta’s investment in the new BioSTaR facility at Jealott’s Hill is a clear vote of confidence in the UK and our world-leading agricultural science. This government is backing agri-tech growth and British farming, investing GBP 345 million in grants for equipment and innovation to help farmers grow food more sustainably while protecting the natural environment and building a profitable, resilient future for the sector.” Link to release: syngenta.com/media/media-re… #ScientificBreakthroughs #AgTech @DefraGovUK

@Dragonlady152 Hope they find the problem and your car passes it's mot

My car is in for its mot and service this morning. I've asked the garage to see why im getting a petrol smell inside the car occasionally. It's not normal.

@CarusoSings I don't read the news every 15 minutes, which helps! There is an element of "head in sand" there, but it helps me

I find myself asking AI if a news item is true every 15 minutes. We are truly living in George Orwells head.

@cassidoo I wonder how this would look if all the @jetbrains IDEs were represented as one....

Beware the IDEs of March

@uxian I remember the top one

@Jay_Tee71 That's not nice! I have had some nice ones from @Tesco and @AldiUK but I avoid the "other flavours", except chocolate! Oh and you might have meant to mention @coopuk

@coopuk_food you need to sack your tasters and quality control. They don’t taste of hot cross bun, they don’t taste of cherry bakewell, and the ‘fruit’ situation is dire. If you like white raw-tasting dough however, these are spot on! Disgusting, and SIMPLY RESISTIBLE

@brave I am a huge fan of Brave, but now I need Brave on my TV

Gonna have to disagree with you there

@snezanalawrence @elsleightholm I have watched the video, and it seems the mathematics of chaos is a little beyond me. Mind you I struggled with Fourier and Laplace

@geoffdoesstuff @elsleightholm No!! Don't apologise, keep the conversation going 🙏🏻

@elsleightholm can you do a video on the maths of this please?

@snezanalawrence @elsleightholm Thanks will check that out! No need to apologise for contributing though, that is how we all learn

@geoffdoesstuff @elsleightholm sorry for jumping in but there is already a nice video youtu.be/dtjb2OhEQcU?si…

I have done this, it is not quick, but it worthwhile

@tessak22 @tabstack Great news! And congratulations

April 7 I’m starting at Mozilla! I’ll be the first GTM hire for @tabstack, a new browser automation infrastructure platform. Getting to pave the way towards market success. It’s a little bit of everything I love to do from coding demos to writing marketing copy to building partnerships. It’s a role I never thought I’d find, yet here it is. Best part, I didn’t even apply! Someone amazing at the company referred me and the hiring manager reached out. It’s almost like it was divine intervention. 😏
