#BookTwitter we need your help! I run Book Bodega, an Indy bookshop in Ramsgate. Winter is killing us, it’s soo quiet & we need to make £800 by Tuesday to pay our bills. This is my current view = no customers 🥹. Please shop with us and help us stay open!

I've always suspected that an advanced alien civilisation with the technology to travel at close to light speed across interstellar distances would arrive in Earth orbit unobserved and proceed to dispatch a fleet of small, easily detectable balloons into our atmosphere.

What’s going on with accessing accounts @Zopa ? I’m getting a notification about maintenance - any idea how long this will last?

The craziest thing just happened at dinner. I’m at a ramen shop owned by Thai people in Oakland dressed as power rangers, when a woman comes rushing in saying she wasn’t safe—and a man came running in after her and puts her in a chokehold.

@seetickets hello I need to change my address for Glasto ticket delivery but your customer service page won’t accept the reference number or any other details.

#Wordle216 and more. Hidden in the JS source are all the unjumbled solutions. There goes my fav leisure activity. Coding is bane

A deliciously thoughtful thread on our constant need to self-improve and why we need to cut ourselves some slack!

Have you considered that you aren't an unending project to finish or series of problems to solve?

That maybe it isn't about eating more vegetables, moving your body "the right way," reading that Brené Brown book that everyone keeps recommending, going to bed early...

Hey @soMelanieSaid, I absolutely 💕 your website and blog, and every one of your projects is such an inspiration! The learning logs you write up are also super informative for someone who still feels very new to dev, I often try to start my own but then just don't publish them😅

@CalmHolmes I actually only clicked when they asked for my bank details!

This Royal Mail scam is very hard to discern, the URL in the text seems legit but once you click through to the site none of the links in the footer work which is a sure fire give away. And the supposed tracking number doesn’t exist in the Royal Mail online tracker

@samr33 @Biogroup_UK Exact same thing just happened to me. Started at position 29, after 2 hours got to position 1 then got cut off.

@BillySummers88 Been wondering about it too. Circling for a while now.

I've started a little project to showcase some data from different sites across the web and I'm having a ball following along to @wesbos tutorials, currently mid-way thru 'Node.js Scraper Day 2'

If you need to get data from a site that doesn't expose an API to access those data, you'll probably need to use web scraping.

And Cheerio is a cool tool that can help you do it.

Here @MJMAWA shows you how to scrape websites with Node.js and Cheerio.

@robertbalazsi @datagrab_io This is brilliant, I’ve just started a web scraping project and this too will be super helpful! ⭐️

🇭🇰 Hong Kong residents are buying into the UK property market ahead of an expected immigration surge.

Residents have bought four times as many luxury London properties compared to 2019, as visa changes are set to spark an immigration increase
