Didn’t manage to finish in enough time to get things primed, but that’s the start of my Adepta Sororitas army built. #warmongers #paintingwarhammer2020

I renewed my library card yesterday. Well, I say “renewed”… it had been so long that they couldn’t find me in the system and had to create a new account for me (which saved me the £2 fee for a replacement card). I used to go to the library almost every week as a kid, and I’m hoping to get back into the habit this year.

This Sororitas build is taking longer than I’d like. Although, if I can get them finished and primed this weekend, I should still be ok. They’re on 25mm bases for painting – I’ll move them to 32’s later. #warmongers #paintingwarhammer2020

“What do you mean St. Celestine is a unique unit choice, and I can only take one?” 😅

Dug these out to spruce up my Sororitas army box with a few additions and conversions. #warmongers #PaintingWarhammer2020

In the last few days at work (so, strecthing back to before the holidays) I’ve been setting up Jenkins and SonarQube. Now I just need to get them working together^. Eventually I want to get things to the point where something gets checked in to Subversion, SonarQube runs on the branch, and – assuming no defects raised by the scan – Jenkins creates a patch "build" for us. In the case of this particular project, that means an export of all the .sql files modified since the branch was created.

That’s all a while off. For now, I’d settle for just getting each tool doing their main thing in isolation.

^ Well, I do need another team to come back from holiday and give me the necessary SonarQube license key first, so I can get it looking at the code.

This has reminded me just how much I used to love watching Tomorrow’s World as a kid. It’d be fun to look back and see just how many other TW predictions either came true, or were close.

One thing I appreciate about days like New Year’s Day or Christmas Day, is the tranquility. Everything seems to stop for a day, and you can go for a walk without hearing the rush of traffic, or the bustle of other people.
