I haven’t posted in a while, due to it being very hard to read, but it looks like my eyes are finally clearing up.Posted By tirial on September 12, 2016
This is the first time I’ve been able to really get back to PC work, using a lot of assistive technology – a posh way for saying screenreader and Viavoice.Posted By tirial on July 22, 2016
Well, I have SQLite working and the prototype is now running entirely off it. Billing and credit allocation is built and ready to be wired in. There’s zero validation of course, but then its still in alpha for the database and I want to be able to update things quickly.Posted By tirial on July 11, 2016
So Leadsom has apparently left the leadership race. It is somewhat unexpected after she fought so hard for Brexit and then to be the alternate candidate to May. However the person who should be really worried is Theresa May, as Leadsom quitting takes away May’ mandate to govern.“…whenever Gordon Brown chooses to call a general election, we will be ready for him. He has no democratic mandate.”Teresa May, Conservative Home, August 2007

Chilcot is damning, not for the report itself, but for what the sources it contains reveals. The emails in particular stand out. Cameron seems to be trying to whitewash it, saying MPs must take responsibility and that Chilcot is not accusing Blair of misleading the house. I suspect that despite the contents of Chilcot’s report on Blair, Westminster may try to close ranks to protect him from consequences. That would be a mistake, with faith in government currently so shaken.Posted By tirial on July 5, 2016

Well, it seems the prototype went down well. As in, “where’s the beta?” well. Come on guys, I’ve been building for a week. Even I can’t do an entire ad network from back-of-envelop to beta in that time. Be glad you have a working alpha – especially since building the beta means I’m about to break it completely…Posted By tirial on June 24, 2016
Since I was asked, what I was doing during the Referendum? I believe in an educated electorate, and I was upholding my principles.
