Fun with the kids making lissajous figures at the National Museum of Scotland for #mathsweekscot. Also on tomorrow for maths fans in the area.

Youngest child played with tilings at #MathsWeekScot today. Once he’d figured out the pattern, he confidently stated he’d won. He’d beaten maths.

@balatsch The trickiest bit of hiring a QA is that they've got to meet the standards you set in my head :)

A successful session of hunting and fixing bugs means that you end the day with everything working the way you thought it did at the beginning of the day.

While I'm trying to hire a new QA, I've had to fill in the role myself recently and I'm starting to understand why devs are really bad a QAing their own work. Or, at least, why I'm bad at QAing my own work…

Looking to test some (super secret stealth) product prototypes with HR bods – do any of you lovely people know anyone who might be interested?

It’s entirely possible I just spent 2 hours chasing a bug that was caused by spelling the Authorisation header with an 's'. Not saying I did exactly that this afternoon. Just that it’s possible it happened.

Autumn has started well. Weeks of crumbles, pies and baking ahead.

Had a few half-songs running around my head for a while so I've stuck them on soundcloud: soundcloud.com/simon-madine/s… Should I keep going with any of them or start from scratch?
