Software Developer. I like to send PRs on files, drill holes in walls and play with electricity.

@tv6tnt Do your reporters walk into interviews with Ministers completely unprepared? A simple follow-up like, "Do you think Rock Hard's exit paved the way for this price hike?" would have done wonders.

Surely this is a bot, right @duolingo ? If so, it's very demoralizing to be competing in the same league. If not, man this guy has gotta get a life 🤣🤣

@dalewilsontt @NordVPN Just needed it for one month while on vacation, don't trust Hotel Wifi, and forgot to cancel

[Ryan Shripat @ryanshripat]

Disappointing that a monthly subscription to @NordVPN auto-renews by default and they do not provide refunds, citing the fine print on the Terms of Service. $39 USD lost. This was a learning experience.

[Ryan Shripat @ryanshripat]

@dalewilsontt @NordVPN Nah, $13 / mo.... x 3 months :(

The timing of this is a bit odd. BC suggested a year after we started working together on the column that the last two Trinis to the Bone would be both of us. My column appeared today and it seems he was too ill to do his own. The curse of the shoemaker.

Did you try out the new Rate Limiting in .NET 7?

It's a technique to limit the number of requests to a server or an API.

There are 4 popular rate limit algorithms:
- Fixed window
- Sliding window
- Token bucket
- Concurrency

Here's how to use them 👇

I wonder how many Diana’s there are in the Indo-Caribbean community due to Princess Diana. Anybody know a Diana Persad, Diana Singh, Diana Hossein?

[The Cutlass Magazine®️ @cutlassmagazine]

It is odd how Christian missionaries think that when someone is on their deathbed that is the perfect time to convince them to convert? Someone should accept a faith while in their full senses and joyfully rather than due to you instilling the fear of hell in them.

Asking all the right questions ;)

When you use Starlink, which country do content providers block you from?

[Ryan Shripat @ryanshripat]

Wait so you're saying it's not as simple as installing a ChatGPT Package, and calling ChatGPT.MakeGame(awesome); ???

[Irwin Williams @iStarr]

Built my first game using an LLM, you'll never believe how easy it was, a 🧵

@iStarr They forget about the hordes of graduates who graduated online and will outright refuse to work in an office.

@mailinator Looking into setting up a Verified Pro Application, but it says "Request has already been submitted for this email", no evidence of a mailinator email in my inbox. Support Link on page is broken. Help?

Twitter is not the same as it was last week. The algorithm has undergone more than 30 changes.

I’ve been monitoring the GitHub repo for you. Here’s what you need to know:

@iStarr Problem is, a rubber duck doesn't ever give *wrong* answers.

[Min. of Planning, Economic Affairs and Development @PlanningTT]

As the world marks International Day of Women and Girls in Science #IDWGIS with a focus on the SDGs, we asked some of our researchers, scientists and policymakers to share one thing people should know about their area of expertise. #womeninscience #SustainableDevelopment

[Ryan Shripat @ryanshripat]

Impressive. The speed of a Google search plus the accuracy of a @StackOverflow Community-checked answer. I want a bot that will auto-respond to SO questions with a ChatGPT response now 😂

[Nat Thulke @NattyThulke]

@troyhunt I had a mental blank too so I asked an expert :D
