Dismal failure my f*cking a*s, Piers. He resigned because of a relentless campaign of misinformation, funded, perpetuated and amplified by foreign billionaires whose goals bear zero resemblance to the working people of Britain. He delivered about as much in his first 2 years as any PM in the last 50 years. Stop with the traitorous bs for once. This is a dark day for democracy.

ever wanted to fix all your repo names? You start with hope, but then bottle it because it is a lot of effort...

Finally fix that debt in bulk with https://t.co/HJW1mz1CkA
You can set custom properties at scale too!

nobody sets out to ruin their github org governance, but that cheeky admin permission for that junior ? remember to revert it? 👀

thought so... https://t.co/HJW1mz1CkA has your back with auto-expiring access ("fire and forget"). it's fast too!

UX Improvements!
-Org Map shows GitHub staff-team relationships
(+ cheeky direct staff-repo reach arounds!)
-Sub-500ms page loads for complex assets

GitHub governance ops is getting faster and clearer.

Testing Python/FastAPI performance at scale with Locust + Docker for https://t.co/MluN0gYelv

Same workload, 4 API vCPU:
Stock 3.14: 745 rps, p99 55ms, 742MiB
3.14 JIT: 710 rps, p99 63ms, 762MiB
3.14 No-GIL: 439 rps, p99 44ms, 437MiB

Stock wins thruput. No-GIL wins memory + tail

564 commits. 138,868 LOC. 192,102 lines changed. 495 paths touched.

Nearly a year turning “surely this is simple” into actual software. Thanks I think @marclou?

Prod hangs off repos now. https://t.co/lC9mEWpbKy is GitHub access governance for teams outgrowing spreadsheets.

@4thUtilityUK the Internet is down in Leicester

Holy cow dude! I just gave ClawdBot a task and after 4 messages back and forth, it made a reservation at a restaurant for me! This saved me so much time, wow!

After another 6 texts, it sent a Calendar invite for me! And it only cost me $87 in Opus 4.5 tokens! AGI is here man!

Generational psyop

Hey @nextofficial, why is it that you're asking people to confirm their details against the electoral roll when buying clothes online? You put a hold on my order for no valid reason, and tried to pretend you're a bank...

Hey @elonmusk, big fan. How do you plan to practically tackle the amount of bots on Twitter? Free speech is great. That said, bots and misinformation devalue it significantly.

[Brocksopp @SamuelBrocksopp]

@TheLeoTerrell why do you and posts at'ing you sound like robots blindly supporting Trump? Surely there are more functional and less divisive presidential candidates...

The #SpaceX #Falcon9 that launched @AstroBehnken & @Astro_Doug to the @Space_Station in the #CrewDragon returned to Port Canaveral this afternoon! Love seeing the rockets return after a successful mission! #SpaceXFleet

Solid investment! @CoinMarketCap

Yo @nextofficial, I want to use my gifts cards to buy clothes online but there is no option to pay with them. Any help?

[Brocksopp @SamuelBrocksopp]

@BorisJohnson We have already had 3 years on uncertainty and delay with the Conservatives.. Time for new blood, new mindset.

[Brocksopp @SamuelBrocksopp]

@h_tucks Wow, I thought it'd be nail biting! Finger eating is definitely a variation! Could cover your hand in something you hate (marmite?) or more sensibly try CBT as it is good for such things. Perhaps get it via NHS?
