What if you took the core abstractions of Plan 9 from Bell Labs and put them in a WebAssembly module?

A highly satisfying and tense series finale! The @Victoriocity folk (bestselling authors @chrssgdn and @JenSugden) really are very good at weaving the many threads of mystery stories

The seventh and final episode of Truth & Claw, ‘The Manhunt’, is out now.

This quote from Doug Engelbart sums it up well - computers should help people approach a problem space, understand it and find solutions. Particularly in the context of group work, I would argue our tools and practices regularly fail that brief

[Jonathan Lister Parsons @jayfresh]

Really enjoyed this talk about #ToolsForThought from @Mappletons https://t.co/I7p0csF7AX The more we explore Domain-Driven Design @pensionbee the more I realise our cultural practices fail to adequately explore problem spaces

[Jonathan Lister Parsons @jayfresh]

Can't recommend this book enough! And with early access passes thrown in to the most excellent @Victoriocity podcast series 3, it should be a no-brainer :D

[Victoriocity @Victoriocity]

High Vaultage is out now! 🎉

To celebrate, we’re giving away Truth & Claw early access passes (so you can listen to the full season without waiting) and some great bonus content to everyone who orders by Saturday night (or already has)!

High Vaultage spotted in the wild with a lovely @Waterstones recommendation: “a hilarious novel set in London in 1887 … Twisty, inventive and thrilling, this novel about a private detective agency will excite and electrify”

Official launch tomorrow! 🎉

[Victoriocity @Victoriocity]

It’s High Vaultage publication day! 🎉

A tale of private detectives, kidnappings, unsolvable bank break-ins, and spiralling nefariousness in the chaos of Even Greater London, 1887.

We (@chrssgdn and @JenSugden) hope you love it. Happy reading 📕 👸 🤖

@Reido2012 Too kind!

I don't read many books thanks to having a 1-year old, but after a recommendation for "The Culture Code" by @DanielCoyle from @richmarr (VP Engineering @pensionbee) I couldn't put it down. Psychological safety, belonging, managing for creativity vs proficiency #WorldBookDay2024

They buried the lede on this new study. It's not that exercise beats out SSRIs for depression treatment, but that *just* dancing has the largest effect of *any treatment* for depression.

That's kind of beautiful.

Season 3 ‘Truth & Claw’, Episode 1 ‘The Beast’. Out now.
