    I'm even older today than yesterday. But one of my team members cheered me up with a lovely digital birthday card written in Swift. Check it out! swiftfiddle.com/lkhexpwavresxh… (Thanks also to @k_katsumi for Swift Fiddle, which lets me share it so easily with you!)

    One moment, @ChargePointnet. Be right with you; just have to get re-baptized with a new name and update my records with various government agencies... In the meantime, it's a good chance to plug an essay by the ever-wonderful @patio11: kalzumeus.com/2010/06/17/fal…

    As an act of corporate philanthropy, @HeinzUK deserves praise for purchasing one of the most spectacular parts of coastline and donating it for the common good. Cape Cornwall is just a lovely place to spend an afternoon as part of a Cornish vacation.
