Devs: We've finally got the thing that's definitely not a Torment Nexus you and running. That's awesome! We're gonna make a ton of money from tormenting people. They keep asking for it for any reason. Devs: Speaking of money, I think I deserve a raise. Absolutely not? Did you even do any work? Also, this thing requires the power of a small country to do even a small amount of tormenting. It's costing us billions. We're gonna have to let you go.

Will you help us build the Torment Nexus? Devs: What?! Absolutely not! What if we paid you $1 million a year? Devs: It's not about the money. My reputation is at stake! You could tell people you had no choice. Devs: I won't be responsible for building the Torment Nexus. It's evil! Oh... well you know it won't look like a Torment Nexus until much later. Right now it's just a cool toy that makes up answers to silly questions. Devs: Haha, this thing is cool. Wait, what were we talking about?

there are few things quite as glorious as a whole day with no meetings we all know maker’s schedule manager’s schedule, but still, the impact on productivity never ceases to amaze me. way bigger than …

Very excited to announce that @lornajane and I are running a new @openuk Meetup that's digital-only, alongside the other great events being run by the #OpenUK organisation.

Our first event will be a tie-in with #GitHub's #MaintainerMonth and we'll be hearing from a number of excellent maintainers from a variety of projects - stay tuned for more details.

Looking forward to seeing some of y'all on May 22nd at 1200 noon (UK time) for an interesting webinar!

(This will be in addition to other OpenUK events still being hybrid where possible)

GitHub relaxing the requirement of the construction of the GitHub App's JWT (under private_key_jwt) is interesting, especially if now you don't need to know the installation ID to auth.

Presumably this also means that on GitHub's side they're still limiting access to repos that an installation has access to, but I'd have assumed that by doing it by installation ID you'd get additional checks

(I'd been lazy in the past and would rarely persist the installation ID, needing me to then go in and find it through the GitHub UI 😅)

The question of whether CSS is a programming language serves only one purpose: to demote those who write it. There is no confusion that needs to be clarified, and no other purpose in asking, beyond the most trivial kind of pedantry. The debate itself is an act of gatekeeping, whether intentional or not. Its only significant effect is to elevate some work over other work, despite their essentially identical nature. The only meaningful function of the question is segregation. #css
