Spending the day at Bristol Coffee Festival after getting about 3 hours sleep was simultaneously a very good, and very bad idea. Given the amount of coffee I've consumed today, I suspect another 3 hour night is on the cards

Hell of a week. We pulled it back at the last minute though, so celebrated with pizzas and cider. Pepperoni, grana padano and homegrown cherry tomatoes Figs, stracciatella and laoganma chilli crisp

✨ Big O ✨ Let me take you on a visual introduction to what big O notation is in my new blog post: samwho.dev/big-o. With big O notation you can better understand how algorithms will perform in practice, finding orders of magnitude improvements often with very simple changes to your code.

I know that I'm extremely late to this because I wanted the 4K Bluray for my collection, but Sinners was phenomenal

久しぶりのお好み焼きナイト Last night I made Okonomiyaki for the first time in a while and we were really happy with how they turned out. The weather wasn't quite as warm as it has been lately, but we cooked outside anyway

New Thrice is, unsurprisingly, very good. Looking forward to the album

Walking to class, I cut down a side street and accidentally photobombed Taking Back Sunday as they posed for a group photo behind the Tesco Express on Cowley Road in Oxford
