I think if you went back in time and told Emmeline Pankhurst that 'sexes must be segregated in mapping because men are naturally more gifted at reading' was considered the FEMINIST take 100 years after her death she'd kill herself in front of you

@but_cyclists I hate that a lot of Glasgow cycle routes are putting these signs on walkways instead of building actual infrastructure

We're back - analyzing CVE-2026-10520, a Pre-Auth RCE in Ivanti's confusingly named Sentry product.

Enjoy!

As someone who enjoys malware and malware accessories, I for one believe this to be incredible news and I applaud Satya Nadella for this

As someone who deals with malware defensively, I for one believe this is terrible news and I hate Satya Nadella so much right now it's unreal

@PeteFarrell14 They do this in Glasgow, the airport is a 20 min drive for me. You get free parking at the car park by the terminal entrance. It's great to drop off your luggage in your own car, then rock up to the airport on the day in an uber with just your hand luggage

@razortrapgorge The shrimp that fried my rice, and have everyone else food poisoning - who happens to be in the colour identity of Glasgow's meme kebab shop.
I enjoy using official McDonald's trading cards as food tokens in my deck.

Day one of GitHub Copilot token-based billing and the customers LOVE IT! They're all celebrating the power and value of generative AI!

PICARD: Data, shields up

DATA: Brilliant! Shields can reduce damage we sustain. Not immunity. Not hubris. Just prudence. It's not precaution—it's strategy.

WORF: HULL BREACHES ON NINE DECKS

DATA: Here's what happened: you told me to raise shields, and I didn't

[Mick Douglas 🇺🇦🌻 @bettersafetynet]

I'm going to keep saying this... and hopefully SOMEONE will listen.

The answer is humans + AI.

Invest in your people.

Train them.

Give them better tools.

Stop treating headcount like a cost center and start treating it like the competitive advantage it is.

I love serverless, but I'm excited to not deal with all this stuff anymore...

[adam @theCTO]

serverless is amazing.

you get:

- cold starts
- 14 dashboards
- functions timing out because JSON was 3kb too large
- logs delivered sometime between now and your retirement
- a billing model based on quantum mechanics

all to avoid managing a VPS that has had a working tutorial since 2009

Angus Robertson's third place thumping in Edinburgh Central not made any easier to bear by presence of giant gannet

@joe_yer99 My favourite of their renderings is this one, which looks absolutely miserable and soulless

[dilski 🦆 @dilski]

@kellabyte @AureliaRosea Maybe ask which tools you're using that you find viewing JSON logs hard to look at?

[dilski 🦆 @dilski]

@theahmedjaffery @VicVijayakumar What do you expect them to be able to do? They were targeted by a hostile state and it's rather unsafe to be trying to physically recover/rebuild right now

Backup and DR strategies have always been the responsibility of the customer. If customers haven't got a plan, it's on them
