Looks like some time over Christmas someone posted a link to my blog with a `utm_source=hs_email` tag and drove loads of page views.

Call me old fashioned but I always like to keep my body away from fire or flames - regardless of which product I may or may not have applied 😁

I really did not think I posted 1,300 times in 2025, but apparently I did.
It surprised to see the downwards trend in the second half of the year, as I’m trying to spend more time with family

Huh. All my travel advice subscriptions are pinging up today.
It appears the FCDO is quietly updating its travel advice to include the below.
They have also updated their page on dual citizenship to state the same.
Is this now new official policy?
A bit […]

I need some help:
I've got php8.3 on a server installed via ppa:ondrej/php
I need to install a pecl extension (specifically excimer) and that requires the php-dev extension.
But it doesn’t seem to be available to me. Why would that be?
(Yes, I did run `apt update`)

Now the fact that this club is not run by a computer science teacher but a geography teacher is already a red flag. The connection to El Salvador seems […]
