@AmazonHelp Thanks for this quick response

@kathyblib @DaveStacey47344 @mk2james @Alj813 @barneyronay @SmokeyTimRobbo That happens already because of the websites that tell you the platform before it is announced. Caught a train from Euston on Thursday and people were queuing three deep from the barrier all the way to the concourse well before the platform was announced.

@whocaresletmein @ChombaBupe Absolutely

[Ian Finch @ianf]

@whocaresletmein @ChombaBupe It might not be obvious garbage though, it could be working code with an off by one error, or some other boundary condition problem

I wonder who put this sign here? Oh well, I’m sure it’s not important.

@pickover They missed a couple of tricks in the way they formatted the number of digits

@JENDELLA Interesting article … thanks for sharing. I guess it’s a tangential point, but I do wonder, though, whether Cote D’Ivoire (and other former French colonies) can truly be post-colonial until Francafrique is ended and they have control over their own money and politics

I am forever grateful for my @mit experiences. I went to the @mitcoop to pick up some swag and was pleasantly surprised to see my book on display. I’ve gotten used to walking into many book stores and learning they don’t carry Unmasking AI, or if they do it is tucked away somewhere in the back. I don’t take it for granted when my work is recognized because erasure and marginalization are themes I still continue to navigate. And still we rise. And still we write. And still we walk with gratitude in our hearts.

@lolababz_ All seems pretty random though. Good luck with it

@lolababz_ I didn’t pay any extra fees. It did say that I would be responsible for any import tax, but there didn’t seem to be any. That was March last year, so fairly recent

@lolababz_ Don’t know if this is possible for your order, but got something from Amazon USA by ordering on Amazon UK. It was just like ordering from UK but dispatched from US. Price was in £, no extra fees, but came from US via international carrier

[Ian Finch @ianf]

@DanDiplo Well I have now … took me longer than it should have to work out why you asked
