Good one Gill – had a little bit of enjoyable with it. At all times barely un-nerved by how correct it’s 🧐 the abstract from ChatGPT for my warning for people who find themselves going to fulfill me is that this: ‘Come ready to…

We appear to have began a little bit of enjoyable right here on LinkedIn 😂, asking ChatGPT the query:

“Describe me as if you are trying to warn someone before they meet me”

So I requested Mr Whose Shoes? (aka Colin Phillips only-here-for-the-Puzzles) to see what ChatGPT mentioned about him.

This is hilarious- significantly for anybody who is aware of the man who has stored Whose Shoes? (and certainly me!) going over so a few years. 😍

Ah. Right. You’ll desire a little bit of warning.

He’s the geeky one.

Do not casually point out computer systems, databases, apps, web sites, Supabase, React Native, InDesign, audio recordsdata, Git repositories, NAS drives, VAT, QuickBooks or something containing the phrases “there must be a way to…”. You might lose him for a number of hours.

He has a specific lack of ability to go away one thing alone when it’s almost working. A standard particular person will say, “That’s good enough.” Mr Whose Shoes will say, “Yes, but why is it doing that?” This can lead to an apparently trivial downside turning into a full-scale forensic investigation involving three laptops, an obscure settings display screen and a bit of software program final up to date in 2009.

He can be harmful round previous know-how. Most folks encountering a Windows 7 laptop would take it to the tip. He will resurrect it, diagnose its floppy-drive error, recuperate all the pieces on it, securely wipe it after which discover it a loving new residence.

Don’t mistake the geekiness for lack of practicality, although. While Mrs Whose Shoes aka Gill Phillips is off discovering golden folks, beginning actions and turning random conversations into nationwide collaborations, somebody has to make the bloody factor work.

That’s him.

He’s the particular person quietly backstage ensuring the board recreation paintings is the fitting measurement, the database really talks to the app, two audio tracks don’t play concurrently, the accounts reconcile, the recordsdata are backed up and no matter Gill has simply enthusiastically promised any person can really be performed.

And one closing warning.

Never say:

“It probably can’t be done.”

He will take that personally. 😆
