Reformed Systems Engineer, mental health rambler. Personal account and all views are definitely my own. Head of Platform Engineering, whatever that means.

@TheShroppieBeek My ones even simpler, 07-07.

Given the upcoming UK elections, and then the US elections, I think it's a great time to break out arguably the best photograph I've taken at a protest.

Gotta love whoever left the little figuring in the police horses manure

[Owen @ObowersA]

Pretty spectacular views from porty tonight

Just a quick how-to blog post on overriding some of the github language analysis, and how that can help out tools like @GetCortexApp with showing the correct repo language: https://t.co/YojwezlMDX

@MagsthePirate Number 1?

I don't tend to post much fitness stuff, but, super proud of the 50kg dumbell bench. Even if on the first rep I misjudged their width and managed to bounce it off my piercing.

Which, for the record. Hurt like hell.

[Owen @ObowersA]

Oh hey. Got around to updating my site, getting my projects up there and making a blog post on the diminishing quick wins with seniority. https://t.co/ovBeJ3nrhH

I almost feel productive.

While my day to day job does have all of the usual stresses, there is something pretty special at seeing actual plants as a result of the work. Still hasn't got old yet.

Consistent, nutritious, delicious crops – 365 days a year 👌.

As well as looking plush as a pillow, basil grown using IGS technology offers increased yield, and efficient use of resource!

Gone are the days of pests ravaging harvests – now’s the time for vertically-farmed basil!

@TheShroppieBeek I'm genuinely excited for more beekeeping posts. It's a world which is completely alien to me and always super interesting to see. Next time I'm in your neck of the woods I'll drop you a note and see if we can catch up.

[Owen @ObowersA]

@TheShroppieBeek Busy but good. Far too many spinning plates but that's more of a way of life at this point. Trying to get more involved in the community side of things after the chaos of last year. How have things been with you ?

[Owen @ObowersA]

@TheShroppieBeek Sadly not at the moment, although that might change. I'll definitely give you a shout if anything comes up.

[Owen @ObowersA]

@TheShroppieBeek I feel this in my soul

[Owen @ObowersA]

Every so often I get the urge to try doing a bit of website stuff. Every time I'm reminded of how bad I am at website stuff.

[Owen @ObowersA]

Who say romance is dead

Norway spruce seeds + enough LEDs to host a stage at Glastonbury = 📈!

We might not have the manpower to put on a full-scale festival, but our Growth Towers are well equipped to deal with any shortages in labour through efficient, automated technology 👌.

[Owen @ObowersA]

Ah. Past me. How I hate you and your naming decisions.

[Owen @ObowersA]

I see this sign in the opposite office every day, I really hope they also have a 'waterfall workspace' sign somewhere else.
