For a while now I’ve been wanting to do some tutorials based around Shark and some other tools my group publishes. Not for work as such, but, obviously I have a bias and stock in the idea. The more I work on & with Shark the more I’m surprised by what it can do. But… Read more
That’s right, I used an arroba in the title, muahahaha. Christmas day, yesterday, I went round to Myke’s place for Christmas dinner. Mainly his family, and a couple of friends such as myself.
