Also petition the FA, get them booted out the FA Cup and reinstate the first team they beat as the finalists. It’s only fair. @officialecfc.bsky.social in the final against Chelsea. It’s only fair. 24 hours for Matt Taylor to get the lads ready.

This result of the council election from where I live is objectively hilarious. Tories won with 62% of the vote last time around. Reform split the right vote and no Labour candidate this time around. Greens win by two votes.

A week late posting but Sing Us Home last weekend was outstanding. Many highlights, including welcome return for Augustines, amazing headline set from Menzingers, surprise Brendan Brown set, Will Hoge being great, and of course wonderful stuff from the Hause boys et al. Rounded off by Brian Fallon.

Will Hoge was the highlight of the weekend for me

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back! Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary. Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest! #MundaneHalloween

One of the joys of travel for work is being able to squeeze in a few activities around it. Chicago in a couple of weeks so I’m heading to the Evanston Folk Festival. Should be fun.

Just back from a pretty special 10 days kayaking in Svalbard. Lots of polar bears. Mostly water was like a millpond, but a couple of choppy bits. Made it to almost 82 degrees north.

This is a pretty good analogy. I had a mate in my pub quiz team who always gave very confident answers. Sometimes it was a subject he knew a lot about. Sometimes nothing. Equally confident. Same energy with Gen AI.

Book recommendation for the techies… Afzal Mangal’s book about IoT and why we should still be talking about it, is a great read afzalmangal.com/product/pdf-...

Just arrived in the US. Stop-over in NYC now, off to San Francisco is the morning for Oracle analyst event, then back over to Philly for Sing Us Home Festival (a mighty fine line up), then a few days Appalachian Trail walking. Slightly challenging packing to go hand luggage only though.

That’s a shame. I used it as my meet up venue in the city for work. Most people loved it. And it had a good range of teas.

‘Twas ever thus. Notting Hill/Portobello Rd same in London. High end stores hook on to the vibe and drive out the thing that created the vibe in the first place. But on the plus side it just moves somewhere else.

Haight-Ashbury in the 80s probably a rather different experience from Fidi in the 2010s!

That takes me back. I lived a stones throw from there in 2013. The tea place was lovely, if it’s still there.

Thought for the day: Why can’t Lars Ulrich regularly drum like he drums in the bridge and solo in One? It’s good. Rest of the song not.

The term "physical metaverse". Discuss. While doing some research today around video analytics solutions used in various verticals I stumbled across a company referring to this. I think it broke my brain.

Jim Bob’s recent stuff actually pretty good in my opinion. ‘Jo’s got paper cuts’ a good example. Also caught him live a couple of times recently and v good. Mellowed a bit but haven’t we all.

Much as I like Spotify wrapped, it would be nice to be able to flag a song as “I have to learn this cover for my band”. Tends to skew things a bit. Good example here. Great song though.

One of the areas I get asked about a lot is why IoT never hit the predictions of 50 billion devices. Firstly those were overinflated predictions anyway, but there have been some stumbling blocks too. We discuss it in this session on the Peggy Smedley Show. peggysmedleyshow.com/an-honest-co...
