After creating a spreadsheet some time ago, to help me scale the ingredients for our favourite Neopolitan Pizza recipe (made in a Thermomix) – this time, I thought I’d see how long it took to get GitHub Copilot to create a standalone page that I’d be happy to use instead.
About 10 mins with a couple of iterations – as I was using the ‘free tier’ – so wanted to get the most out of my tokens š
If you need to do the same – here’s the page…
I love that people actually write things like thisĀ guide on how to land a 747.
One of my faviourite books is the ‘Worst Case Scenario Handbook’, where you’ll find how to safely jump from a moving car, wrestle a croccodile and all manner of other stuff.Ā The illustrations are also pretty cool.Ā You can find most of this online now, and buy the book.
These are great stocking fillers for the bloke who loves BBC Top Gear.Ā The show’s transcended the traditional ‘magazine’ programme and is now a fantastic vehicle (pun intended) for Clarkson, Hammond and May’s ‘last of the summer wine -style’ comedy antics.
Coming from the place, I never realised how maps over the ages ‘big up’ their own country.Ā The UK size and shape particularly differs quite a bit…

Iām a creative geek living in Melbourne, Australia who writes software by day, and creates T-shirts and other designs by night. This is all of course when time and motivation allows.
Itās probably accurate to say I dabble in things other than software to keep my creative side happy. I was always a keen musician (guitar, drums and keyboards) but am now happy to dream of the āgreatnessā I never achieved. I may surprise myself yetā¦ I might also get round to finishing my list of gig attendances one day.
I like to take pictures of things that interest me, and am becoming and increasingly keen photographer.
I occasionally write technical articles, produce the odd bit of freeware, and record technical thoughts on my Codebureau blog. Anything left may end up on this blog ā but that’s rapidly turning into my world of T-Shirts!
