Stop blaming remote working for all your company’s crap

CEOs are rushing to crush remote working because work / life balance is bad for something or other — I’ve read a number of articles and blog posts that CEOs are demanding their staff get back to the office or find a new job. Elon “The Uber Douche” Musk, whatever that guy’s name is at Apple, even Zoom is laying off remote workers. …

Docker ARGs, ENV vars and Build Stages

Understanding your Docker build stages and the repetition of ARGs and ENV vars — “What the hell?!” I growled at my workstation. My workstation did not answer, but just sat mute to my growing frustration. See, I was in the midst of trying to build a .NET …

Kids are grown and out of the house. We are living our lives as one of those annoying couples who seem happy and satisfied in their lives and in each other. …

Failure is Your Friend

The Road to Success is Paved with the Stones of your Fails — I’ve been teaching martial arts and acrobatics for the past 15–20 years. Prior to this, I’d been studying them for nearly 25 years. I have been at this nonsense for just about 40 years (which is weird to write that out. 40 years?!), …

Stop Blaming Your Age For Giving Up

I’m sick of people my age using “getting older” as their excuse for everything — “Getting old is not for wimps,” is one of my dad’s favourite expressions. He uses it a lot. What it means (best I can tell) is that getting old is hard, painful, ugly and downright unpleasant, and if you’re a wimp, you’ll suffer old age badly. My dad is a…

A Brief Glimpse at “Nirvana”

An ordinary guy’s experience of Satori and how it changed my worldview — I’m the first to admit: I’m no Zen Master. I’m no Holy Person. I don’t claim to have any deep spiritual insights (or at least no more than any other goon out there). I think ‘spiritual’ or ‘religious’ people are often either disturbingly saccharine or downright creepy (not to mention…
