Homebrew Website Club on December 11th.
From to at Ludorati Cafe 72 Maid Marian Way Nottingham United Kingdom NG1 6BJ
The Homebrew Website Club is a regular meeting for enthusiasts and hobbyist programmers who are building, or thinking of building, their personal websites. The meeting is an informal setting where you can talk with others, get inspiration, or quietly work on your site.
Homebrew Website Clubs are run across the world and have a mixture of styles for how they operate. In Nottingham we like to have a bit of a relaxed session in the cafe portion of Ludorati. Folks come along for conversations about their websites, building tooling for the Web, to talk about some of the technologies they've been working on, to learn something new, or even just to have a couple of hours dedicated to adding that new bit of functionality or a new blog post.
Note that this will be the last HWC of 2019!

Off Days (1 mins read).
It's OK to not be 100% every day.
I'm probably not the best person to comment on it as I'm used to tweaking my Linux installs and going a more pain-induced way around things, but it's not that bad. It's a learning curve, it's not nearly as polished an experience that you may expect (for some things) but I find it such a better experience on Linux - I use mac daily for work and it constantly frustrates me!
