Many thanks to Anoop Tatti @anooptells for a great talk last Thurs night on 'OpenAI's Function Calling: What is it and how can we take advantage of it?'. Also thanks to @Spectrum_IT for their generous sponsorship.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but it’s okay to love science but also want to go home occasionally

This afternoon I slept and dreamed it had all slipped away , that we were all ambling to the funeral of life . We were sobbing over Swallows and Small Coppers , crying about Cuckoos and porpoises , choking and gasping about rivers and meadows . And when I woke up . . . the world was on fire

[Dev South Coast @DevSouthCoast]

Many thanks to Kevin Smith @kev_bite for a great talk last night about DotNet Minimal APIs. Also thanks to @Spectrum_IT for their generous sponsorship.

[Prof Catherine Davies @Cat_Davies]

Wake-up call of the day for academics:

Apparently prof services' skillset includes the ability to deal with angry/shouty/hostile academics, and currently half of @kirstygrainger's poll of 131 people have been probed on this at interview.

This is not OK.

[Martin Lewis @MartinSLewis]

Are u due to start Uni this September or next, or parent/guardian of someone who will?

I'm doing a @GMB special to explain the new (possibly double cost) system. If ud like to join us live in London on 28 June and even ask a Q pls email GMB team at [email protected]

[Dr Owain Kenway @owainkenway]

Another recruitment - this time at the opposite end of the career scale - we're running our first ever apprenticeship in @ucl_arc starting in September as part of our goal of creating future employees - you can apply here: https://t.co/vt5ylpSH3e

One happy boy!

@Oxventure are you folks selling merch today. My son is desperate to buy before the meet and greet?

[Southampton Research Software Group @RSGsoton]

Do you have a project that might benefit from access to @UoS_HPC ? Want to scale up your research but unsure of the next steps? @RSGsoton's three new HPC RSEs are here to help. https://t.co/kKpJkkbN10

[Giles Yeo @GilesYeo]

UK folks, super important. Photo ID will be required to vote for the next election, but University IDs won't work, risking the silencing of young voices. Students can now get a suitable photo ID for FREE from @nusuk 👇Please RT https://t.co/kBzUKfy04i

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

This is brilliant - utterly brilliant . Watch it and follow @ClimateSciBreak & the superb @JonathanPieNews & get to London for #TheBigOne from the 21st April .
Please RT !

@sjh5000 I know in schools there were all sorts of safeguarding concerns around the use of cameras and there are probably some carry overs with vulnerable adults. Problem is I never managed to get someone to describe them to me clearly.

[Dev South Coast @DevSouthCoast]

Many thanks to @TheAprilEdwards for a great talk tonight on @github actions and the security features which can protect developers from themselves. Thanks also to @Spectrum_IT for their ongoing support.

[Jon Snow @jonsnowC4]

What @GaryLineker has done is to have awakened the country to the Government's plans for dealing with migrants and hopefully forced us all to understand the humanitarian consequences, and involve us all, at home and abroad, in finding a solution.
