I watched Zootopia 2 with my kids yesterday.

While they were cheering for the bunny and the snake, I was mesmerized by the urban planning.

In the movie, the mice have tiny vehicles. The giraffes have massive kiosks. The hippos have water channels.

They don’t build "One Size Fits All." They build "Right-Sized Infrastructure."

It hit me like a ton of bricks.

In my company, we are failing at this. We are committing the sin of Hardware Equity.

We give the same $3,000 MacBook Pro M3 to our Senior AI Engineer (The Elephant) as we do to the Junior Copywriter (The Mouse).

The Engineer uses 100% of the CPU. The Copywriter uses Chrome and Spotify.

Giving a "Mouse" employee an "Elephant" laptop isn't generosity. It’s Capital Expenditure malpractice.

So this morning, I launched "Operation Zootopia."

I ran a script to audit CPU utilization across the company.

If your average daily CPU usage is under 10%, you are classified as a "Rodent Tier User."

I confiscated 40 MacBooks from the Marketing and HR departments.

I replaced them with refurbished Chromebooks and 2nd Gen iPads.

They were furious. They asked, "How am I supposed to work on this?"

I told them what the movie taught me: "You don't build a highway for a hamster. You build a tube."

We recovered $120,000 in hardware assets in one morning.

Stop giving Ferraris to people who only drive to the grocery store.

Nature doesn’t waste resources. Neither should IT.

Years ago, in the 1990s, me and my boss were looking at a client's rental accounts. He asked was I sure about the mortgage repayments. I said I had checked them with the bank. "They can't be less than the rent," he said, "That never happens. Not on a 90% mortgage." Seems like...

The sneering contempt of ‘journalists’ will never stop me from calling out racism and Islamophobic hate.

At the start of my career leading Cav out was a joy. A fellow Brit, changing the landscape of cycling. To see what he did today, 16 years after his first Tour stage, is almost unbelievable. But, it’s Cav. Nothing’s unbelievable. Congrats mate. They don’t call you Sir for nothing

THE GOAT!!!

This is a displacement centre in Omdurman that we as @Khartoumkitchen support. It hosts displaced families as well as children who have been orphaned during the course of the war.

Our support consists primarily of basic food supplies, but as it was Eid our volunteers brought ll as clothing items to distribute to the children.

On a daily basis there are 15,000 people facing real hunger who depend on the work of Khartoum Aid Kitchen. If you are able to donate to help us continue our work then please click the link below if not then we ask that you share widely.

Cheeky bit of grub at Flight Club, helter skelter down to the ball pit bar for a few sweet laden cocktails, indoor skydive back up to rooftop ice bar then a few chill drinks at the harry potter potion (cocktail) making experience! Some day ahead👌

If the human wasn’t there all the ice cream would go on the floor

You know what I’m hearing Wonka? Poor me. Poor me. Pour me another fizzy lifting drink!

Finally managed to do a “birthday party” for my daughter despite everything. Her happiness was worth the world.

looking up the rate of inflation since the rakes’ 22 grand job was released

It’s time to make some new memories.

I don’t want over exaggerate but I think we can attribute part of our decline as a nation to when we started fucking about with Hot Cross Buns
