Caleb Hammer – A review
I stumbled across a YouTube channel which has gripped my attention, and suprisingly so. Caleb Hammer is a slightly pudgy Millenial who has a primary interest in personal finance. His show is simple – someone who feels like they are struggling with their budgeting will come on, and over the hour Caleb will go through…

Stretching
Today is Day 1 of my 30 day stretch challenge. The rules are simple, stretch everyday for 20 minutes, for 30 days straight. At the end, see the results. All good challenges have a before and after. For me, the metric to measure is touching my toes. I can do it at the moment if…

Great Day
Today has been a great day, and it makes me feel like we have really settled into Denver. The last few days we have been hosting our Vancouver friends – Chris, Michelle and their little baby Margot. They sadly left this morning, but it was great having them here. After breakfast and dropping them off…

Meme of the week
I rarely share memes, but I did today. It isn’t necessarily the greatest one, but the fact that I shared it with my mate means that it’s probably worthwhile sharing it with you. I like it, even though I’m not in the slightest involved in the space of competitive coding. Maybe it’s the archetypes, or…

Rolling Stones
They’re playing down the road as I write this, at Mile High Stadium. Now, having the Rolling Stones in town possibly doesn’t cause as much as a stir in 2024 as it did in 1974, but when I ran past the venue a few hours ago, it was clear that they could still pack an…

Running Repairs
One of the major inconveniences that has plagued my life over the past few months has been my bathroom sink. It has been a pain for quite some time, but the past few weeks have been particularly awful, with the sink filling with stagnant water for days. Well, today was the day that I was…

Cyber Security
This week at work has been CyberSecurity Week, or at least it has been for me. It has been a serious deep dive into a world I knew nothing about. A few thoughts on it. Firstly, it’s wildly complex. Part of that is due to the nature of the beast, but the language makes things…

The future of education?
There is a lot of concern and worry about the Deep Fakes; media that has been altered with AI to deceive. No wonder; imagine a video that was picture perfect of Trump doing a Nazi salute, or audio of Joe Biden discussing his ties with Jeffrey Epstein. Even if they were fake, the realness of…

Schism
I had a good chat with my friend today about AI. Jason is quite the expert, and it’s always fascinating listening to him lay out what is going on. In some ways, the space is more than an industry, it’s a season of Game of Thrones. You have a few heavy hitters out there; Elon,…

Not my first rodeo
Ky and I knocked off one of our US bucket list items today; attending a rodeo! It was Ky’s first time, and we had a blast. This wasn’t the PBR; but very much a local event. If anything, it meant we probably enjoyed it even more. Here are some of the highlights. The event kicked…
