Weeknote 21/2018
This week I’ve been:
- Sending out Issue #304 of my Thought Shrapnel newsletter. This one was called ‘Grateful Dead Public Radio’. Thanks to the 35 patrons who back me via Patreon plus those who are supporters via Gumroad!
- Curating interesting things I came across on the Thought Shrapnel blog. This week I collected some quotations and commented on the following:
- Wielding your pension funds for good
-
“We find very few sensible people except those who agree with our own opinion.” (François de La Rochefoucauld)
-
“Ability and greatness must be measured by virtue, not by good fortune.” (Baltasar Gracián)
- Microcast #022 (Patreon supporters only!)
- Working on the MoodleNet project, which this week was focused on the design sprint we ran with Outlandish in London. It was pretty intense, but very enjoyable!
- Writing:

This Bank Holiday weekend I’m helping out with Marra Camp, a huge Scout camp in Northumberland as a parent helper. My son will be there and the weather is forecast to be good, so I’m looking forward to it. Following that, I’m taking some holiday, working on co-op stuff, and then getting back into Moodle stuff next Thursday.
