@Pocket since the recent UI refresh on iOS, the app badge doesn't work. Setting constantly switches off

Encountered a @KevlinHenney trying to make an H&M return

[David Ebbo @davidebbo]

@sayedihashimi @davidfowl @ADefWebserver He did more than "work on it", he pretty much wrote the whole first version! 😂

[Robin Weston @robinweston]

@heitor_lessa Haha. I actually do use it, but the community should always come first 😉

@heitor_lessa @8 IPv6 resolution was the issue for me. Try disabling it.

[Robin Weston @robinweston]

@software_daily Oh man, that's so sad. My condolences. I was a guest on the show a few years back and Jeff treated me with so much kindness. The show has been ever-present in my life and career for many years now.

@SteveSmith_Tech 3a. Do I have admin rights to my own machine

[Robin Weston @robinweston]

Regardless of my opinion of web3, it currently has no appeal to me as a software engineer. Public, hard to upgrade code, that requires a working economics model built in from the very start. It’s just….too hard

[Robin Weston @robinweston]

@pcalcado Oh, and also devise upfront a working economics model with the correct incentives so you can actually profit from your endeavours

If you won’t test in production, your users will do it for you

“Excuse me sir. We received an anonymous tip that you’re planning on smuggling dinosaur embryos off the island”

It’s mad that the current UK government has overseen thousands of unnecessary deaths AND a shortage of food and fuel, and will still comfortably retain power at the next election. Why do we have such low expectations of our leaders?!

After 3 years of increasing chronic pain am effectively housebound. Life has lost so much of its joy and meaning

[Robin Weston @robinweston]

@phunkren Congrats mate!

Nearly had a very expensive dental incident 🦷

btw these large scary math symbols are just for-loops

@alex_casalboni @heitor_lessa Having to relearn VPC configuration (subnets etc) every 6 months. I just want to check a “make this private” box

[Robin Weston @robinweston]

Ugh. I went in to the office for 2 hours and it absolutely wiped me out. Chronic pain is both invisible and horrendous

[Robin Weston @robinweston]

Any suggestions out there for group remote learning and development workshops for software engineers?
