My youngest decided to not sleep last night. It was not something me and my wife appreciated.
I’m now on my third cup of coffee, of what will surely be a long day.

Making early dinner before going out for Trick-or-treating.
Happy Halloween! 🎃👻
For the second time this year the fire alarm went off in the middle of the night. 🤬
It’s clear we have to replace the detectors we have, but researching this takes time. Time I’d like to spend on something else. 🤷♂️
Find My
My daughter lost her Apple Watch on her way home from school today.
Minutes later I was using Find My to locate the Watch and saw that it was on the move with almost no battery left.
A ten minute walk from the house was the last location Find My would show me.
I was afraid of calling the watch and using up the battery. But after several minutes of not finding it at the last position, I took a chance and called it.
Luckily someone answered and told me where to pick it up. 10 minutes later I was back home and the watch returned to my daughter.
I really like Find My.

Nothing like having other developers use the component I’ve created to see all the flaws that needs fixing.
Yesterday’s trip to the gym went by quickly thanks to the latest episode of Really Specific Stories by Martin Feld.
Martin is a great interviewer and was joined this time by Jarrod Blundy.
If you like great interviews you’ll like this show.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is arriving soon.
I have pre-ordered the game and this new overview trailer shows what looks like a fun new entry in the 2D Mario series.

Listening to The Incomperable 683. 🎧
As usual when listening to the Book Club, it is an expensive episode to listen to.
Four new books, and the episode isn’t even over.

I got Star Ocean: First Departure R to experience the first game in the series before https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Ocean:_The_Second_Story is released in November.
The announcement trailer for it looks fun.
🎮
I’ve been playing Star Ocean: First Departure R on the Switch the last couple of days.
It’s an HD remake of the original rpg game from 1996. I’m about five hours into the game, and it’s been a fun throwback to 90s era rpg games.
🎮
Vacation is over and I’m on my way to the office.
As usual, it feels like I need a vacation after this vacation.
Looking forward to a day in Milan with the family.
On a train going 250 km/h, while having a fast internet connection is as close to sci-fi I can think of.
