So today my wife Emma & I welcomed to the world our little bundle of joy, who arrived at 19:47 GMT weighing in at 8lb 1oz. Mum and baby (boy) are doing well, recovering from their ordeal in the hospital.

There, I said it :D I just want to shout it from the rooftops!

Welcome to the world of Parenthood and my advice as a Dad to a 17 yr old who turns 18th on the 22nd of this month - THEY GROW UP FAST! Cherish every moment you have with him and don't be afraid to let him grow up and learn on his own, even if you know what they are doing is wrong and they are going to get hurt, (sometimes they have to learn the hard way!) And by all means, don't be afraid to discipline him as needed to keep him on track. :)

Most importantly, love him with everything as I am sure you do, and enjoy every moment even if it is being woken up at 1:18 in the morning to change his diaper, or feed him, or because he just needs to be held. :) These are memories you will always cherish later on even though right now, they might just make you insane.

Congratulations!

    • Traffic has a surprisingly unexpected impact on your surroundings

      Population especially in high density areas creates more heat and more humidity. This can be noticed in an indoor arena or concert room which heats up when the room or arena fills with people, without air conditoning to cool it down, Watering of lawns creates more humidity as the moisture from the watering rises into the atmosphere, creating a more humid condition. The again, depopulating an arena or room after an event will drop the temperature inside. Desert areas are less humid for a number of reasons, including a lower population density. Tel Aviv has horrible weather, unless you like it hot and humid. Summer days are regularly 90+ F with humidity well over 70%. It is probably not as bad as Mississippi but still it is bad enough.

    • Why you need to take back control of your synced passwords and how to go about doing that

      By Steven P. · Posted

      I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!

      It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.
