Are you using Shopfy to run the backend of your ecommerce store?

Might be time to start exploring alternatives before they absolutely cook you.

Nice

Related: I am pleased to announce that I am watching test cricket at the MCG (albeit on the telly) and I look forward to the challenges of this role.

Watching Alana King bowl on a good deck is one of life’s simple joys. #ausveng #cricket

Today in Unannounced Office Food:

IT left a little chocolate mousse thing on my desk. It is quite nice.

Why is everyone talking about nividia and the line?

oh...

Babby found a Peppa Pig video on YouTube kids.

She got very excited and shouted “PIGGY PIGGY” and waved me over to see.

Now, there are precious few things that are banned in this house. We’re pretty easy on the kids, we don’t overly hover or monitor what they watch.

But that pig? That cunt pig?

That is a fucking line, my friends.

So I was immediately “nope. No. The fucking pig is banned” and turned it off.

The look I got from the babby. She looked at me like I just murdered her favourite toy in front of her. It was a mix of anger, horror, shock and disgust.

if you want to write a computer application so I can access your services in a way that gets around the privacy stuff i have running in my browser, you should be forced to write a native computer application.

reskinning a browser window is not writing a computer application i fucking bet the person who put this together calls themselves an engineer or an architect or somesuch

mate you filled in a fucking template you're little more than a fucking typewriter.

"Download our app!"

Why?

"It's better than our website"

How so?

"In many ways"

Right.

So off I got and download it, just to have a look.

"Here it is! Enjoy!"

The app? The app is nothing more than a browser window that opens the website.

Well done.

WICKET. Fuck. It is possible? Do we dare consider believing? #ausvind #cricket

I miss test cricket.

Big niggle developing in this one. A bit of rugby league is going to bring the kiddies back to the cricket. Isn’t that right, Roy? #roy #bbl #cricket

OOHHHHHH. Mankan is on. Fireworks and actual fireworks. #bbl #cricket

I like that the ABC gets the same people for NYE that do the sound for Carols on Christmas Eve for Ch.9. You love to see that cross-network dedication to just the shittest sound mixing possible. #nyeabc

I can’t believe they actually sell this as a bundle.

@jpm Life, uhh, finds a way.

Standards should be free.

Related, I want to burn SAI Global to the ground.

I cannot quite believe the day job is letting me publish this.

And just to be clear - the answer to the question is "fucken none".

I suspect a non-zero number of people are going to be upset with me when this goes live.

Well, it’s live.

““The computer said it was OK” is unlikely to be a phrase looked upon kindly by an inspector of a workplace safety regulator.”

Although, I did have to kill me "three quadratic equations in a trench coat" line.
