now I'm thinking about the oblivion mod terry pratchett wrote for

[Shaun Wall 🇺🇦 ☀️⛅ @Nomaki]

I failed all my A-Levels because I wanted to be a doctor, so took a bunch of modules I wasn't any good at.

Had to beg to get into the one university that would consider me, and ended up getting a First Class Honours in Computer Science by spending three years in the library.

Flex your lowest academic low score.
To remind us that almost everyone fails at some point in life but it isn't the end of the road. Just a memory in the end.

Mine was 27/100 in Engineering Math 2, just a year after I'd scored 99 in 12th boards. Much needed kick in my butt.

16.5 years of your life and all you get is an automated email.

This is the state of working in tech.

“This also just drives home that work is not your life, and employers -- especially big, faceless ones like Google -- see you as 100% disposable. Live life, not work.”

"OpenAI sent tens of thousands of snippets of text to an outsourcing firm in Kenya... Some of it described situations in graphic detail like child sexual abuse, bestiality, murder, suicide, torture, self harm, and incest"

marty posts on reddit throwing mick under the bus and telling fans to blame him for the doom ost failure

bethesda:

mick posts two years later with receipts and repeatedly tells people not to blame id

bethesda: "this is a one-sided and unjust account inciting harrasment"

[Mick Gordon @Mick_Gordon]

Marty Stratton, @idSoftware Studio Director, lied about @DOOM Eternal's OST events in a Reddit post that used disinformation to blame me entirely for its failure

Later, he offered me a six-figure sum to never speak about it

The truth is more important.

what

[Casey Newton @CaseyNewton]

Here it is: Twitter engineers were told today to *print out* their last 30 to 60 days of code, so they could show it to Elon Musk himself.

Then they were told wait, no, actually, please shred all that code you just printed out.

Which stage of capitalism is "monthly subscription to access colors"

[Iain Anderson · @[email protected] @funwithstuff]

Fun times ahead for #Adobe designers. Today, if you open a PSD (even one that's 20 years old) with an obscure PANTONE colour, it will remove the colour and make it black. Pantone want US$21/month for access, and Solid Coated goes behind the paywall in early November.
