Feel free to use them as is or as a starting point for your own documents. There will be more uploaded over the coming months, but I think there's enough here now to provide some value to others.

Happy to receive feedback, as well as take requests for additional documents that could prove useful.

David Hecker - OpenOps Management and business process documentation

I'm releasing a series of guidelines, workshops and spreadsheets under a Creative Commons license at openops.davidhecker.com. Sections on project/people management, talks on mental health, travel guidelines, sprint planning spreadsheets, detailed ffmpeg guidelines and many others.

Oh look! We have a release date for Metavoidal!

It’s just them opening tins of tuna, called OnlyCans.

Thank you! I have added the digitally available ones to my library.

Long time listener, first time caller. Which is your favourite book you’ve written that you wish more people had read?

Dr Phlox was the standout character for me and is my favourite Star Trek doc.

And again Africa remains kept in the Dark Ages? Like, we’re right in the middle there, can’t miss us.

I didn’t know it was there so it was a wonderful surprise when I came across it.

Isn’t that library just the most wonderful place to stand for a while?

I don’t know of any of those, but I can highly recommend Hans Egstorf for the most incredible stroopwafels I’ve ever had.

I use Airalo for my eSIMs. Last trip to Europe I got the Eurolink which worked very well across Germany and Amsterdam. For the UK I used Uki Mobile. I think I have a referral code for Airalo if you want to save a small amount of $.

Last night I was asked to reshare a talk I did back in 2017, which didn't get filmed the many times I gave it.

Let's do it as a thread. I've not done an informational thread on here before, interested to see how folks like it.

(forgive obvious stuff, it was ever so slightly fresher 8 years ago)

Middle-Aged Man Trading Cards Go Viral in Rural Japan Town A trading card game consisting of real-life ojisan (middle-aged men) are going viral with kids in the city of Kawara in Fukuoka Prefecture.

Oh this is just adorable

“Kids have started attending local events and volunteering for community activities — just for a chance to meet the ojisan from their cards. Participation in town events has reportedly doubled since the game launched.”

Friends, for the first time ever, some of my artwork is available to buy online.

not many, but more to come.

I’m seeing a lot of negative reviews on games along the lines of “this isn’t exactly what I wanted, even though it was exactly what was promised”.

I can’t overstate how much more joy you will have if you allow art to unfurl in front of you, instead of demanding it be what you imagine you want.

Same. I ignore every single one.

The day will come for your Peter Parker moment. You’ll be in the shower, amazed at the clarity of mind that comes from seeing every water drop right in front of you. You’re watching in slow motion as each gently settles before sliding away to be replaced by another. You still have your glasses on.

The day is finally here! It's Kitsmas Day! 🏃

Hello Sarah. Love the work you do. Could you perhaps make sure that Africa also gets represented on future maps along with all the other global release times? There’s always a big gap right in the middle where we are. Would be so good to see this be an official Xbox policy. Thank you!
