Thinking about bringing back my weekly digest posts. For no other reason than, I just want to write more and blog more.
I watched The Players Championship over the weekend
It was a great weekend of golf on the television with The Players Chamionship. Even with a few groups remaining on the course, it was still looking like it could be up for grabs but Rory held out for his 15th PGA Tour win.
The highlight of the weekend for me though was Kevin Na and Tiger Woods and their speed birdies on the 17th. A great moment.
Side-projects are taking a back seat for the next few days so that I can get the den re-painted and spruced up abit. Looking forward to getting a place for some of my books as well.
Almost there with registrations for Markcase. I’ll start will limited registrations to begin with and then scale it from there. I’m in no hurry.

Australian broadcaster Waleed Aly on the attacks in Christchurch the reason why they no longer shock him.
“Of all the things that I could say tonight—that I am gutted, that I am scared, and that I am filled with utter hopelessness—the most dishonest thing, the most dishonest thing would be to say that I am shocked,” Aly said. “I’m simply not. There’s nothing about what happened in Christchurch today that shocks me.”
Aly went on to list attacks in recent years in places of worship—targeting Muslims in mosques in Quebec City and London, Jews in a synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Christians in a church in Charleston, South Carolina—saying that this kind of violence has come to be expected in a climate of hate that many political leaders build up and manipulate rather than stop. — Watch a Muslim broadcaster make stark sense of the New Zealand mosque shootings
Are we ever going to be rid of political leaders that use hate and fear to score votes and secure their seats of power?

After a few hours of wrestling with Vue, I finally have unit tests in place for a few components. A win for today, but I am still not convinced of JavaScript as a one stop shop programming language for web applications.
