Quite a busy week so far in the technology industry – Google released Android 16 beta 4 (link) and it appears that the kernel version has also been updated (not a major version update) and I’ve read reports regarding the Pixel 9 Pro XL showing performance improvements. The expected release is around the middle of…

As mentioned previously I went for a blood test on Monday and the last time I had one 3 months ago it took 3 days to come back so either one of two things – it is taking longer because they’re busy or the answer I’d much rather prefer which is ‘no news is good…

Well, I went to the Awanui Labs blood testing for my A1C test however I also found that there was an urine test (I saw it on the document my doctor gave me, thought it may have been a mistake) so I guess the reason was to also check my kidney function as well. Normally…

End of another week and I’m feeling good with how my weight loss is progressing – I tried on a pair of pants that I didn’t think could fit me but I pulled them up, buttoned the fly and waist with a perfect fit. From the outside it may not seem much but I like…

One more day to go and then it is the weekend – it has been a busy week with the Queensland storms that took place which resulted in many of my coworkers unable to come into work or work from home due to power outages so those of us in the New Zealand office had…

I’m heading into the office tomorrow – assuming that Metlink don’t do something foolish like replace trains with buses, I’ll be heading in and enjoying the free coffee that is available with the added benefit being that I gets me out of the house or otherwise I’ll end up feeling as though I’m becoming a…
