Struggling with the second part of day 2. Seems correct to me but clearly missing something.. Iโ€™m doing this at the cinema/cafe while waiting for a film, maybe itโ€™ll come to me when I get home ๐Ÿ˜‚

Starting #AdventOfCode today (bit late) decided on using Go this year, day 1 done. The first problem took me a while as i was getting used to the syntax, the second was fairly easy #golang

Spent the day debugging why my integration tests pass locally but intermittently fail on GitHub Actions. The issue is clearly due to differences in the testing environment, but what differences? Back on it tomorrow I guess

Iโ€™ve switched back to a DisplayLink dock. Coming from a Thunderbolt 4 dock, I thought Iโ€™d notice a drop in quality, but I donโ€™t. Frame rate looks the same to my untrained eye, and now I can use two external monitors with my MacBook Air M2!

Load testing for engineering teams | Grafana k6 k6 is an open-source tool and cloud service that makes load testing easy for developers and QA engineers.

Iโ€™ve used lots of different load testing tools but this one, I think, is the best!

I find this invaluable k6.io
