So today in side project #dev, I decided I was going to get back to writing an Elm-based web app to wrap my Elixir-based API.

As I usually do, I updated Erlang, updated Elixir then updated #elm. Well wasn’t that the big mistake.

Seems that Elm moves to 0.19 in late August and there were a few breaking changes. Got a lot of things working, but eventually gave up and reverted to 0.18 out of frustration and the realisation that there’s no good 0.19 examples out there yet.

#admin announcement - there is now an @admin account on the server that will be the default follow for all new users. We'll use the @admin account to announce changes to the server, and any planned maintenance for downtime, etc.

We'll also endeavour to use the #admin hashtag to that you can create a list just for tracking such announcements.

There might be a dancer inside this Sean Walsh guy, but it’s wrapped up in a Keith Lemon. #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

Kevin seems happy with this pairing #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

If Cat doesn’t say “owwwww!” every time he does a turn I’ll never vote for him #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

Oh look. Lee From Blue wore blue. #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

And yes, I know his name is Joe Sugg, but I’d rather name him after Emmerdale’s most classic character #MarkAndMoTwootStrictly

This Joe Sugden numpty looks like someone has Benjamin Buttoned yer man Jeremy Irons #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

I wonder will Faye be able to learn all the... steps #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

The “celebrity” I don’t know with the new bloke I don’t know. It’s going to be tough talking about them! #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

When Faye says her secret talent is “playing the spoons”, she means taking the piss out of Lee and H. #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

5, 6, 7, 8! It’s Faye! #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

Kate Silverton. She of the terrible glasses. #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

Might as well do this here @marramgrass #MarkAndMoTootStrictly

Newcomers to nitech.social specifically and Mastodon in general, if you’re looking for a desktop client that isn’t the web interface, have a look at whalebird.org

While we were creating this instance I ended up typing `nitech` a lot. I also watched Office Space.

Now I can't see us as anything but INITECH.
