Moving past social media addiction
For me, relegating apps on my phone has been enough to curb my usage of Facebook so that I now only use it on my desktop for a few minutes a week. Even moving Instagram back a page, I might check in daily, but not hourly.
Twitter is my biggest vice but I use it to follow general news and web development conversations so I feel like it's worth the time I give it.
Casey's experience is different to mine where he had to delete the apps completely and for someone who's built their brand around social media I can get why that is the case.

Boom - Supersonic Passenger Airplanes
Virgin will be one of the first operators for these new supersonic aircrafts, reminding me of their original bid to purchase Concorde from British Airways.
The Overture by Boom looks very similar to Concorde and will bring supersonic flight. Their FAQs are full of great questions and answers.

U.K. Parliament rejects every alternative Brexit option for 2nd time
With just 12 votes in it, a 2nd referendum is the closest we have to a clear way to sort out this mess.
The first was never legally binding and given how close it was should never have been used to put party ahead of country. But it was.
I would rather the government grew some balls and told any 'leavers' the truth, that this is setting the country back.
