Did you see @hannes_lowette talk on building software like a bag of marbles? What to learn more on finding boundaries that are actually useful? Check out this talk from @adamralph: https://t.co/Yz9FRXW9cb

I've received so many questions about where I got the shirt I was wearing during this talk: It's the amazing swag from @OfferZen. 10/10 recommend their swag.

@MattMercurio @CloudAMQP Rabbit 3.9 couldn't give the required consistency guarantees we need for timeouts, so we had to set a min version to prevent any possible message loss 😒 I'm not sure why CloudAMQP limits 3.10 to higher tiers though, that's a strange decision

@sitereactor Ws2812b strips (I like 5V), an esp32, and the wled library, https://t.co/dX00LgQ93h. You might even be able to buy the preconfigured wled boards from them

@joshilewis @BidvestLounge For international I prefer Aspire. Smaller, but the bathrooms are nicer. I like to shower before a flight. Kosher would be hard though.

@gregyoung @RogerAlsing The first article however doesn't detail how it defines a conspiracy theory though. Also how it measured left or right. So I'm left wondering what their research methodology actually was.

[William Brander @williambZA]

@gregyoung @RogerAlsing The paragraph after your image highlights my point. "We posit that inconsistencies across findings are partially due to the concept of conspiracy theory itself". I don't have access to the other 2 articles so can't really read them and interrogate methodologies.

[William Brander @williambZA]

@RogerAlsing @gregyoung I guess I'm just wondering what Greg's source was, and how it defined a left or a right conspiracy.

[William Brander @williambZA]

@RogerAlsing @gregyoung I am heavily left-leaning, so I don't know what known facts I believe that a right winger might consider a conspiracy theory. But I can imagine that it would be hard for me to acknowledge that my "fact" is a conspiracy for someone else. Perspective matters in the definition.

[William Brander @williambZA]

@RogerAlsing @gregyoung I mean, I guess that's true. What I'm hinting at though is probably more blind spot related: what you consider a fact, a right-winger might consider a conspiracy theory. So as a level headed individual, you might maybe be more inclined to notice conspiracy theories on the right?

[William Brander @williambZA]

@gregyoung @RogerAlsing Who decides what is an what isn't a conspiracy theory?

Well, this is very cool! Running NServiceBus on AWS Lambda. Another addition to the ever-growing list of cool toys I want to try out.
