I make websites. EM working for the @9Now Web Team @Channel9. Terrible, but enthusiastic golfer. Father of 3. All opinions are my own and open for discussion.

@Apashe_Music Took me a little while, but I got there. 🧐😜https://t.co/e5maOMKGp4

[Simon Olsen @Spanners80]

@Apashe_Music Track title please! Scouring Spotify for this. That sound is 🔥

@kyleshevlin I’d absolutely use @wpgraphql. If WP is what wifey is familiar with, then keep using that. WPGraphQL is fully featured, low config and plays super nice with SSG like Gatsby or Next.js. And host WP on AWS Lightsail to keep that cheap as.

[Simon Olsen @Spanners80]

Gotta say! Everyone knows I'm a Next.js fan, but I still have a couple of sites in Gatsby.js and the upgrade path from v2 to v5 (massive jump!), including a big jump in Node version (12 to 18) was silky smooth! 😌

[Simon Olsen @Spanners80]

@janackeh @fireship_dev no doubt!

[Simon Olsen @Spanners80]

@sippygus 6 if you have kids. 4 if you don’t. 10 if it’s a party!

@CaddieNetwork The place where my ball refuses to roll up onto the green @sippygus 🤦‍♂️😂

@GamewithDave 1. Atari 2600 for my 10th Birthday, travelling with Mum to see my Nana in NZ. Still remember Uncle Jack (with missing fingers 😮) plugging the coaxial into the TV and tuning it until we saw Space Invaders. Memories.

Thanks Syntax - Tasty Web Development Treats for being my top podcast on @Spotify this year. I loved all 963 minutes of it. #SpotifyWrapped https://t.co/H31vNquefE

@kentcdodds One Hour Photo.

[Simon Olsen @Spanners80]

@shadcn Yup! Cos when I use URL params for pagination, I want to scroll back to the top of the page on pagination navigation (or am I doing it wrong? 😅)

[Simon Olsen @Spanners80]

Just got my ticket for #nextjsconf by @vercel, claim yours!

Let's make the Web. Faster.

@JessTelford My unit of relative time measurement is now when my colleagues were born or left high school. 😅😅

[Simon Olsen @Spanners80]

Looking for a new profile photo of JUST me, no kids or wife, in my iPhone photo library and this is one of the options. 🙄
