Was in Paris on Friday night and a handsome French man was flirting with me and I asked him what his name was and he said (very Frenchly) “Ah you will be disappointed” and I thought what a silly thing to say and then he said “it is Kevin” and you know what? I was disappointed.

Can we see the full footage then please? Where Suella Braverman shows compassion towards Joan, the holocaust survivor who expressed concern about dehumanising language towards refugees? The bit where she doesn't say 'I won't apologise for the language I used?' Thanks.

Since the footage misrepresents the interaction about a sensitive area of policy, we have asked the organisation who posted the video to take it down. (3/3)

If 16 is considered old enough to make an informed choice about joining the Army and possibly dying for your country, I'm pretty sure 16-year-olds can handle their own gender identity.

✨ It's happening! ✨ This is the year we are finally building the triplex! It only took 4 years of planning and permitting, but construction is finally under way!

Why do people use full on frameworks? Because they're sick of having to wire up and bootstrap a fucking PHP session and flash middleware and then find out the middleware stack is in the wrong order and something doesn't work and oh now it needs more configuring... I want to be productive, not spend my time bootstrapping yet another minimal framework that includes basically nothing.

It must be hard being morally right all the time.

It's also a word for people who don't know precisely where they fit, for people in flux, and for people who just don't want to disclose their whole deal immediately. It's a great word.

"Queer" is a great alternative to LGBT+. It's quicker to say. It doesn't relegate any identity to the other side of the plus sign. It invites all queer folks to be equal. It's cool being queer.

Types in programming languages are used to be written to the left of names, but are now moving to the right in modern languages. Why?

ADHD is feeling like you’re always behind, afraid of being seen as lazy, and overworking to compensate until you burn out in a blaze of glory.

Monorepos are great…to a point. Grouping apps that use the same tech in one repo makes a lot of sense. Why? Because they can share a lot of code and config. But, grouping disparate, unrelated tech? Likely not worth it. Summary: Put *similar* projects in monorepos.

Does anybody ever think about how fucked up it is how one the Matrix’s most iconic scenes is a guy in a black trenchcoat walking into a building and gunning down a bunch of civilians minding their business? Especially after Neo just learned like 300 non lethal martial arts.

That’s a good point and not something I’d really considered as security guards over here are like glorified doorstops with no real power. I’d not made the connection they’re a stand in for the cops because of that and it certainly adds another layer I’d not thought of.

This is hilarious. Aldi created an Amazon-like “grab and go, zero staff” store in the Netherlands. Except no customers enter b/c to do so, you need to register *with a credit card*. The majority of the population in the Netherlands doesn’t have a credit card! They have debit.

Aldi introduced an Amazon-like store in The Netherlands. You can grab your groceries and walk out. Cameras register what you take & auto-charge your creditcard. Zero friction. Except in a country where ppl don’t have creditcards & your app sucks 🤦🏻‍♂️
