My son recently started studying for a Masters in Sports Psychology. He’s looking at the massively evolving, multi million dollar world of #esports. Should be exciting!

Pleased I have finally got my proposal sorted for my masters dissertation!
I’m going to be exploring coaching climates within esports and I’m going to attempt to find an association between Task or Ego Oriented Goals and Pre competitive anxiety in esports players!

@lukemurraynz I bought one of these two years ago. It’s super comfortable, gives me zero back pain and still in good condition after 700 days of continuous use. Hope yours serves you just as well!

[Mark Whitby @MarkWme]

Cool. When does my outfit arrive?

[Mark Whitby @MarkWme]

Without doubt, the best addition to my garden, ever! 😎

@BenCodeGeek I prepared a thing on Microsoft open source projects for a meet up a few months back. Reading up on Porter at the time I was surprised it’s not more widely used. There’s some good stuff in there.

@vinf_net Welcome to Microsoft!

[Mark Whitby @MarkWme]

Oh wow, this is awesome … and my whole day is now gone fiddling with this thing 🤣

After a brief affair with a Eufy robot vacuum, we’re back to Roomba. Just went to try out the lovely new i5 that’s just arrived and … bugger.

@BenCodeGeek My rule of thumb

1 app = App Service
More than 1 app = Container Apps
“I know how Kubernetes works” = AKS

[Mark Whitby @MarkWme]

@BenCodeGeek Ceci n’est pas etc …
