@netflix it is absolutely ridiculous that you can't change which profile is the "primary profile". my only option here is to lose my watch history by renaming the primary, or pay you again to transfer another profile to a new account, then delete the original account?

“Approved H1-B holders as of July 16, 2023 will receive an open work permit of up to 3yrs, which means they will be able to work for almost any employer anywhere in Canada.”

Canada is finally ready to eat USA’s lunch on poor immigration policy!

@ranakamrankhal2 @JoeyLightbulb Google seems to think it's very close to Mickleham

I just got access to Google’s new MusicLM and…

Wow.

No exaggeration when I say this will change the music industry.

@kelvinoshea They should just start with him in the bin for 10 to get it over and done with now.

Tacklers need to lower their body height. If you hit another player with your shoulder or your head, your should be penalised. #NRLRoostersDragons

[David Buchan-Swanson @deecewan]

@I_am_da_BOM Victor lowers his body height and the head clash doesn't happen. Hitting a bloke in the head with your shoulder or your head is just as bad.

The most ridiculous thing the NRL ever did was say head clashes don't matter.

@ask_aubry Who are the 220 people who thought this was a good thing to like?

@SicilianBeard @ExhaustedIsaac @warriorwoman91 The beauty of a rate is that it lets you control for population.

Intentional homicides / 100k people:

Australia: 0.9
US: 6.5

Airbnb is broken. Hear me out.

The space needs disrupting. Think:
- a building dedicated to hosting
- full service & cleaning
- central city location
- guaranteed amenities
- professionally trained staff
- knowledgeable concierge
- an integrated restaurant

who’s building this?

@taybenlor Gonna try and trick my company into letting me come watch

@AdamRackis @RogersKonnor Is this not what flow has with `?T`

[David Buchan-Swanson @deecewan]

@Spectrumofreas1 @Austen Yup. Already seems a lot of people say they are the primary account holder, but if they can't share with family, they'll just drop it. I reckon it'll be a wash - some people will sub due to this, some people will churn.

[David Buchan-Swanson @deecewan]

@cramforce IMO Param types are for the consumer, return types are for the implementer. The inference works fine if you're just consuming, but if you're implementing, they help you be sure you're correct.

@AdamRackis @leog0esger > just rely on GitHub to do the right thing with squash + merge

> Ignore githubs option to revert a whole PR, regardless of merge style

Very ironic that a tweet about "don't argue about git nerds" has ended up with arguments about git
