This week I'm skipping the big vaccine news and going straight for an in-depth look at the automation and programming options for Microsoft users, and how a dozen different options, very few of which work together, are available between the various Microsoft software platforms, and how much more powerful they would be if they were linked together.

Our competition is now done, so I look to the future with new vaccine approval for AstraZeneca, and my work dives deep in to the various frustrations of SharePoint development.

In this episode, I'll be focusing heavily on how our grants competition went at work, and then shifting to a discussion about how development and planning of how next year's competition stack is going to go. Exciting stuff!

This week I'll be giving a recap of what I've been doing during week 2 of our grants competition at NSERC, and then talking a little bit about the politics of vaccine distribution in Canada lately.

This week's episode will discuss how the project I've been working on and discussing here for at least the last few months has finally started happening, and things went well! I'll also be talking about portrayals of 'the other' in various kinds of media, and how basically all art is about the 'other' in some way.

Our big competition is starting Monday, and I'm really excited that what we've been doing is finally coming to fruition!

This week, we'll catch up on the Biden presidency, discuss some of the tradeoffs in ramping up vaccine production, and check in on WandaVision.

This week, I take a break from a very busy week to watch some new MCU TV, and discuss getting bogged down in technical debt at work.

In this episode, we'll catch up on the insurrection going on in the US, the vaccine rollout here in Canada, and how work is going now that I've had a week back at work.
