Another point is the two test failures in a row recently.
Regardless of the stance on whether we should spend so much on Trident I think most would agree if we are spending we want it to work, and be able to maintain it ourselves.
The lack of movement on the issue is not due to lack of public will, but the lack of desire from a dying government to deliver effective policy.
However, I do have to credit structurizr, which outputs C4 diagrams, as a great productivity boost. One model producing multiple views at all specificities is fantastic compared to mermaid, plantuml, etc, where every diagram needs to be self contained and define and redefine the same components over and over. Branching off, editing the model, presenting ideas, has been a very successful workflow for me.
I would like to add for others, you can go from 0 to pull-ups with just a bar, which I imagine is much cheaper too. I certainly did and my fitness level was minimal.
It's a case of progressions. For instance starting with negative pull-ups:
- Use a stool or just jump to the top position of a pull up
- lower yourself down with control, as slow as you can. At first this might be 1 second!
- Repeat for sets and reps
- when you hit 3 sets of 8 reps, slow down your descent another second or two
- Repeat until you've built up to 10 second reps, 3x8
At that point you should have the strength to be able to do a pull-up. You may need to ease into the technique, if so, introduce a resistance band to help train the motion, and gradually reduce your dependency on it.
Cryptomator has been good to me otherwise!
