Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit
Collabora
Productivity a subsidiary of Collabora focusing on LibreOffice support and
services for whom I work.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.
Failing that, there are all manner of interesting things to read on
the LibreOffice Planet news
feed.

Moderately irritated (as a remain voter) by the repeated, flaccid
argument (now on the BBC) that old voters (who are dying out) voted for Brexit,
and young people voted to stay: so things are somehow unfair. What a bag of
hammers! It is deeply unclear to me that we should dis-enfranchise the old (and
hopefully experienced & wise) in favour of the young (and arguably
politically naive); but at least there is an argument there for decisions
that only impact the young's future. However - the idea that as young people
age and they experience life (or their brains ossify) - that their political views
remain entirely static seems really unlikely
and is an intrinsic assumption here. The old of today would seem to me
to be a good proxy for the views of the old of tomorrow.

Worked on nailing some contract / admin backlog. Fixed a bug
at lunch. Intersted to see the X86_BUG_CPU_INSECURE patch from AMD.
My content in this blog and associated images / data under
images/ and data/ directories are (usually)
created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under
the public domain, and/or if that doesn't float your boat a CC0
license. I encourage linking back (of course) to help people decide for
themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Collabora, SUSE,
Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International),
or anyone else.
It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
or fun.
