I cannot understand why anyone would possibly want a chip in their head, but especially not one that *that guy* is responsible for.

Looking forward to @dddem@mastodon.me.uk tomorrow! 🎉 Not looking forward to the 5am alarm. 😩
I’m on the train to #DDDEastMidlands! Probably about time I look at the talks that are happening tomorrow 😅
It's lightning talks day at work where once again I have produced 16 slides for a talk that's supposed to be 5 minutes long.
Attached: 1 image One of my favourite (and oh so simple) hacker tricks is to abuse JSON support in APIs and pass TRUE instead of the actual API key. If the code does loose comparison, you don't need the key! 😎 😈 🍿 https://securinglaravel.com/p/security-tip-type-juggling #PHP #Laravel

Announcing a $12,288 bounty (tripled to charity) for cracking the five seeds selected by the NSA in the '90s for the NIST elliptic curve standard.

I feel like everything you need to know about the Drew Barrymore kerfluffle is that when the writers' strike ended, her union writers decided they'd rather find new jobs than go back to working for her https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/drew-barrymore-show-writers-decline-return-1235606269/

if i can offer younger developers any advice its this: develop a visceral allergy to complexity as soon as you can and nurture that allergy your whole life until it approaches debilitating. all else being equal complexity is bad. more "stuff" is bad, period. there are dopamine triggers and corporate metrics that may indicate otherwise but they are catastrophically wrong. fight to make simpler things. sometimes you really cannot, but thats a fight you need to have and lose if thats the case...

I used to think GitHub Codespaces would help popularise Gitpod but now realize it is the other way around. Gitpod is currently permitted to exist in the Visual Studio Code ecosystem to popularise GitHub Codespaces, and Microsoft can step in at any moment to create legal crises that strategically divide the market from a business perspective because, like Apple and their AppStore: it is their ecosystem that they control and they are in absolute control.

POV you're migrating some code to new dependencies and tests are failing and you're not sure why the change would do that but then you find out the tests have been failing for 3 years.

Nothing but love for @www.jvt.me for helping with this! I saw Jamie speak at DevOpsDays maybe 4 years ago and knew he was an all-star I wanted to know one day. I'm thankful that DevOpsDays this year I finally made that happen and it already proven I should have prioritised it sooner! 🤩
It maybe sounds obvious, but if there's one thing I learned from years building open source social platforms, it's this: very few people care about the ideology of your product. The only thing that matters to them is whether it fits their need - there's no way of shirking the responsibility to build the best possible solution. Ideology might (and should) matter to *you*. But it's not a replacement for being usable.
Annoyed by a company responding to my application with interest because it interrupted my flow writing a cover letter for another job application, in case you're wondering what hyperfocus looks like.
Attached: 3 images We had a lot of struggles with our dog early on, I can see why so many re-home puppies between 6 & 9 mo But we found a better dog trainer & she changed our lives (she’s also a people trainer / therapist with how good she’s been to us) Now Bramley has grown into such a wonderful dog, I’m really seeing just how good life can be with a fluffy companion like him This is the first holiday I’ve been on since we got him where my immediate thought isn’t “wooo no dog!” I miss him & his gorgeous face

I have, a number of times now, joined a P1/P2 incident bridge, and helped fix it from curiosity. I observe for a bit and gently push them to establish basic facts of their assumptions. I’m not even a party to the problem. Failure is interesting. And suddenly things start moving…
New career goal: be someone's anchor. Well, maybe not a big anchor, maybe a buoy or a small lighthouse? But yeah, be there for someone to rely on when there's pressure.

My calendar just reminded me that my dad turns 90 today. I haven’t spoke to him in years, since the day he told me he would never accept me as his daughter. Happy birthday dad. #trans

Attached: 1 image #Monktoberfest may not mandate masking, but they've been thoughtful about ventilation and vaccines ... and then there's this! I feel good about one way masking as a high risk person given all the other work they've put in. Of note, when GitHub Universe did the rug pull on COVID precautions last year, it was Monktoberfest's written promise to not relax protections after they're announced that inspired a key part of the @phpledge@floss.social. #PublicHealthPledge #HealthAndSafety #COVID #OpenSource #DevRel

@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me As a long time reader, I'm aware of the risk. Thanfully it was all constructive feedback, and I have a follow-up article to write😅
The list of sites I follow in Feedly has long ago shifted from personal blogs to larger, specialized news websites. The personal blogs have disappeared for the same reason this one did. Why would anyone want to share personal information this way, when social media is easier to use, more specific, more widely-used, and has a … Continued

It's 2023, and it's time for a totally new way to run your tests. Here's how the new TLDR test runner can save you from a life of avoiding your slow tests

Years ago, @paulcuth introduced me to a life-changing conference. Not only did I find my current job through chatting with people there, but the talks I saw and the people I met throughout the years were the inspiration and acceptance I desperately needed to find. Because of that, I'm over the moon to speak at @ffconf@social.ffconf.org and I hope I can contribute to people feeling as happy at the end of the day as I felt all these previous years as an attendee. See you there? 💖 https://2023.ffconf.org/
