there was however some instant decaf coffee, and some Earl Grey tea(?)bought for an American visitor with a Star Trek Next Generation fixation, thankfully it looks as if there is coffee now, back to fight the magic Aglient (HP) user interface

Being a slight Star Trek fan I tried Earl Grey once. Never again.

Or why the Universal Translator would give him a perfect "English" accent, when even aliens got a bog-standard "American" accent.

As strange as it sounds I do live near a dirty great development that is being built or (dug into) the plot next to me so there are lots of big yellow dirty things, I thought this was a Friday, but could be Wednesday...never could get the hang of them!

Now, now be nice, he beat my record by 2 hours, is it just me or is it this job (programming, engineering in general) give problems that you just can't leave until its fixed or you know how to fix!

Yeah! I hate that I end up working late into the night sometimes because I just can't leave until I have figured out what is wrong - especially when it is my code I am looking at. On a couple of occasions I have finally given up and headed home (usually because my wife has called to find out where I am) only to find the problem within minutes of arriving at work the following day. Burn out is real!

Oh good I though it was just me!

I'm an engineer, I'm cr@p at spelling in general, I just don't give a <<deleted due="" kss="" and="" mm="" rule="">>

I believe that has to be one of the most common spelling mistakes around. I see it all the time.

Thankfully no pedant has stopped by to argue that it a grammar mistake rather than a spelling mistake as the word is spelled correctly.

Well, if they did I'd tell them they were WRONG!
It's not spelled (spelt, grammer aficionado!) correctly, if it were it would be 'lose'. The fact that the spelling mistake just turns it into another word is coincidental.

Isn't there some law that posts about spelling or grammar always contains errors in spelling or grammar?

True. I would suggest accidental as well.
