It's #WorldIBDDay! I typically try to build tech things related to living with #Crohns. For #WorldIBDDay23 I built a deep learning classifier for my prescription medication using @fastdotai #DeepLearning #TransferLearning #worldibdday2023 https://t.co/kqN2U0pqH3

Odysseus vs. Poseidon. Batman vs. The Joker. Me vs. Hospital Soap (for about a year). For #WorldIBDDay2026, here's story of another battle of epic proportions 😜

Latest episode of our “Wrestling The Octopus IBD” podcast is now available. The subject is “Living with a Stoma” and we were joined by Natasha Rolls, lead stoma nurse specialist at Bristol Royal Infirmary. We hope it allays some fears of having a stoma

So here it is: introducing Django RAPID architecture, the guidebook I've been writing (on and off) for a year or so, and thinking about for my entire career.

https://t.co/DO7YrrEhW8

It's a free, opinionated guide to structuring real‑world Django codebases so they stay understandable and malleable as they grow.

It’s not a new framework, and it doesn’t try to hide Django. Instead, it leans into Django’s strengths and focuses on a few simple ideas:

- Keep models thin: data definitions, not “god objects”.
- Organise code by responsibility (readers, actions, interfaces, data) rather than by app.
- Put most business logic in plain functions, not in fat models or deep class hierarchies.
- Keep views thin: treat GET as "read some data" and POST as "do an action".
- Design endpoints around real frontend use cases (Backend For Frontend) instead of idealised resources.
- Control queries carefully to avoid performance traps.

I’d love you to take a look and let me know what you think!

@notMrFarmer @bottomlineibd @Crohnoid Was given it too instead of Moviprep. Mixed it with *very cold* water. Went with a sip of Plenvu chased with a mouthful of cold lemon & lime flavoured water. 1st dose is OK, 2nd is fairly rough. It’s a _horrendously_ sweet prep. Best of luck 🤞

Alrighty, the theme of #AIandGamesJam23 is COPYCAT

Plenty of scope to play around with that I think.
The jam is now running for one full week and closes at 7pm BST on Friday 22nd September.

Best of luck everyone!

@js13kGames Hi, trying to submit a few times now but keep getting validation bot error. Used Google Closure to minify and code works locally but validation bot: 'Uncaught TypeError: a.roundRect is not a function'. Any ideas? Thx!
