Summary #19 for 2025-04-21

Alright Alex, here’s a quick look at what’s on the horizon for your Easter Monday, kicking off around 6:12 PM this evening!

First things first, exercise! You have a run scheduled for 11:05 AM tomorrow. Good news on that front: the weather looks clear during your planned run time with no rain expected. Get it done then, as there’s a higher chance of rain later in the afternoon, especially from 4 PM onwards. It will be nice and light out, well before sunset at 8:07 PM.

Being a public holiday, your calendar might look a bit quieter. Note the stand-ups are likely off, with the Frontend one even marked as cancelled. Enjoy the holiday break!

Trying to move Tara from the sofa after a holiday weekend might be the only thing harder than outrunning the rain predicted for later!

Here’s a brief catch-up on a few things:

• Lots of sad news with the passing of Pope Francis has died, the Vatican camerlengo, announces. Tributes poured in from around the world, including King Charles and Queen Camilla have ‘heavy hearts’.
• In tech news, there’s a post about Getting forked by Microsoft and a fascinating read on Reworking 30 lines of Linux code could cut power use by up to 30 percent. Also, someone built a Blog hosted on a Nintendo Wii.
• On the slightly weirder side, Wild chimpanzees filmed by scientists bonding over alcoholic fruit. Cheers to science!
• Good news: Czechia independent of Russian oil for first time in history.
