I'm close to getting into the top 10% sponsorship group for the London-Brighton Cycle Ride in a few weeks. Just under a hundred kilometres at age 72 - so please donate, it all goes to the British Heart Foundation. https://t.co/lXCngZjSSx

I'm fundraising for British Heart Foundation. Check out my @JustGiving page and please donate if you can. Thank you! #JustGiving https://t.co/ae5DLTMzvf

30 years ago, I participated in the British Heart Foundation's London to Brighton Charity Ride, just under 100km. At the ripe old age of 72, I will repeat the experience on 21st June to raise money for the British Heart Foundation

Please donate! https://t.co/fr9nezPM40

I spent three days trying to persuade myself that Richard Dawkins is conscious. I failed.

We updated our 2026 #devopsdays #Atlanta logo to mountains as a reflection of wayfinding in Real Life.
Our keynote presenter, @snowded, is an avid hiker & blogs about both topics regularly 🏔️

Not impressed with @Ryanair who failed to adjust seats for those of us who had paid for emergency exit row seats when the my changed the plane Row 18 got them for free, Row 16 will suffer. All they had to do was swap boarding passes between the rows but indifference reigned

@DThompsonDev happy to help with the science on the survey 🫡

We have @snowded joining us for @devopsdaysATL next month which provides a unique opportunity. The survey science behind senseMaker is pretty impressive 💪

@GWRHelp I bought a ticket to Newport and will buy another one from there to Cardiff. I realise I can't reserve a seat on match day. But given that I can get to the station and buy a ticket, it is remarkably silly that I can't do the same online

[ᗪᗩᐯᕮ SᑎOᗯᗪᕮᑎ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 @snowded]

@GWRHelp any reason why you won't let me book a ticket from Swindon to Cardiff tomorrow? I know there is a match on, but given I will be able to buy a ticket at the station its just silly not to allow me to do so on the app

[ᗪᗩᐯᕮ SᑎOᗯᗪᕮᑎ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 @snowded]

@GWRHelp And to make it even more confusing, the app allows me to get a standard class ticket to Newport (where I was going to break journey to see my Grand Child)

[ᗪᗩᐯᕮ SᑎOᗯᗪᕮᑎ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 @snowded]

@GWRHelp Apologies, I meant to have an electronic ticket on the app. The GWR website just gives an error message (see my other message). I have not tried the app and it will only allow first-class tickets to be booked

[ᗪᗩᐯᕮ SᑎOᗯᗪᕮᑎ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 @snowded]

@GWRHelp All I get is a box saying "Error message: we are currently facing difficulty in fetching your requested data. Please try again later. Same when I tried Trainline. Site works fine to get tickets on Sunday

I’m excited to launch the Digital Minds Fellowship (Aug 3–9, 2026, University of Cambridge).

Digital minds/AI consciousness may become one of the most consequential issues of the future — and the world will need people prepared to navigate it.

This is a fully funded, intensive programme for 15 exceptional participants working on the philosophical, empirical, and strategic challenges surrounding digital minds.

Application deadline: March 27. More details below 👇

@anilkseth @azeem I think one of the problems is that many users of these systems don't really want the messy reality of intelligence; they really want to be bots

I do miss this from time to time

[exQUIZitely 🕹️ @exQUIZitely]

Some of you will be old enough to remember this. Defragging - and it actually did serve a purpose. It was essential for optimizing slow, mechanical hard drives by rearranging scattered data into contiguous blocks. By doing so increased data load times (since the physical head of the hard drive didn't have to move that much).

However, what I remember most was the almost hypnotical satisfaction of seeing all those little blocks flashing, being organized, and just "knowing" that it was good for my computer.

In times when you fiddled around with autoxec.bat and config.sys, when every little Kilobyte of RAM mattered, and when hard drives were measured in Megabytes, not Terrabytes, the weekly routine of defragging almost felt like cleaning up your room.

Wondering why @PremSportsTV are showing all URC matches (several times) this week, but not Cardiff v Benetton
