Started work today, had a one on one to discuss the new year, a catch up on how things have been and organising the days I’ll come into the office now that the powers that be have decided hybrid working is now the ‘in thing’ to do. I’ll pop in on Wednesday and Thursday although that will mean I’ll have to get up at the ungodly hour of 11:30am but I guess I’ll make it – oh the burden of it all lol. I went for a walk after work and it was spitting a bit so I thought I may as well get some exercise but I found that by the time I got half way through my second lap it started pouring down so by the time I came back I was completely drenched. On a good side I have found out that the running shoes I have are water proof which is nice not having deal with drying out wet shoes when I came home.

I checked out Webkit and there hasn’t been a Safari Technology Preview 235 released so maybe it’ll happen at the end of next week or maybe next week. I don’t think we’ll see any major changes because Safari 26.3 beta that is currently in testing for older versions of macOS has some bareback changes with the focus mainly on bug and security fixes with most of the effort probably going into 26.4. It appears that Apple has taken a bit of a ‘tick-tock’ strategy with Safari on their mainstream platforms – x.0 a big update, x.1 a minor update, x.2 a big update, x.3 a minor update (based on what they’ve included with the change logs for those releases).

I’ve been doing free weights for over a week and I’m already seeing results. Today I added an extra exercise and I may also start doing some squats as well to tone my legs and butt which builds upon the walking I do every night. Building up and maintaining that muscle will ensure that as I am losing weight my BMR doesn’t drop because muscles aren’t being maintained through resistance exercises. I’m add more exercises to the routine and spacing them out during the day so that they become a regular thing I do. The new few days it appears that raining will be the norm so I’ll do some free weights to make up for the lack of exercise outside as well as keeping an eye on calorie intake.
