Software engineer since the 80's, ex-house/techno DJ, TV is bad. #RA #GenX - I press space to indent.

Amazing how the moment you see Pizza Express trend, you know exactly what it's about.

@USAinUKConsular @USAmbUK Oh, Warren (@USAmbUK) I'm sure a few jugs of water and a stack of paper cups wouldn't hurt - I mean, offering your guests a drink is the most British thing you can do 🙂

(Not tea, bring back bad memories..)

@BBCNews I'll take "Things I should have been doing all along as part of my hugely overpaid job" for 10.

@GMjtis Think someone else tried it in Nepo before (from some dodgy Reddit thread), and didn't go down well then either 😂

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

@GMjtis Looked like one of two things.. either an in-joke (I didn't see Nepo's face when it happened), or he's getting even more confident which seems to be showing more often..

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

Infantino such a bitch - somehow they found someone worse than Blatter. FIFA really good at finding clowns, I'll give 'em that.

@honeycombio Her team also skipped the mandates & built a set of AI values instead:

"Every AI output has to have a human owner. If you don't want your name on it, it's probably not good work."

#Breaking: OpenAI has filed to go public.

Huge IPO boom coming.

Think that's why I loved Khao Lak so much - I didn't feel like my presence was inflicting some form of torture on my surroundings. A tip mattered, the food was made with care, people smiled because they were genuinely happy to meet you. It wasn't "hollow".

@mostly_grumpy I'm conflicted about Sorrento, Positano, Amalfi, etc.

On one hand, utterly stunning - the other, I became part of its biggest problem.

"There is Sofia Loren's coastal retreat"

Boat captain starts blaring some hacked up version of "Quando..." on tinny speakers..

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

He doesn't know the words, nor do the hundred people on the boat who are bobbing up and down, holding in vomit, about 100 yards out to sea from the house.

Every hour of every summer day, they do that same routine...

Felt so embarrassed and quite frankly ashamed.

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

Wishing @ChrisEriksen8 a speedy and full recovery.

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

@mostly_grumpy @Nigel_Farage 10 million 50p's they stuffed in that village idiot... I can't get my head around it 😂

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

@tszzl That's a "Tell me where you live without telling me where you live" if ever I saw one.

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

@FootballInT80s Run-of-play he wasn't bad either... 😂

@AndrewStellman Lol - driver stated: "one minute all was fine, the next all the code I was carrying was rolling past my window, it was everywhere!"

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

@johnloeber SWE's as a title we're massively watered down late 90's. Prior to that, they'd just be Junior/Programmers. Internet bubble saw an influx of stupid job title inflation.

They were never engineers in the first place.

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

@AndrewStellman Trick even 😂

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

@AndrewStellman Another big truck with custom GPTs in ChatGPT - use the instructions to tell it how to behave when it can't find evidence. Rule 1 is "Code is truth".

More than half the 8000 char limit of the instructions box is how to respond to unknowns. Get far fewer stale chats now.

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

OpenAI frontier models and Codex are now generally available on AWS, giving enterprises a new way to build on Amazon Bedrock with OpenAI through the security, compliance, and governance workflows they already use.

This is also the beginning of a broader expansion of OpenAI capabilities on AWS, including future availability for cybersecurity capabilities like Daybreak.

@mostly_grumpy FFS - I'm going to have to go off the beaten track 😂

And yes, had one already. Lemon flavoured rocket fuel lol

[Dscaper @Dscaper]

@mostly_grumpy

Tough?
