Here's your reminder that the whole idea of a personal carbon footprint was a targeted BP media campaign in 2005 and it worked so well that it seems like we've all forgotten this researchgate.net/publication/30…

Something maybe worth knowing for the junior devs out there Thinking over my entire career today I realized I can’t think of a single time someone ever asked me a question in software engineering and I thought it was dumb Speak up, ask away!

If you use Travis or Heroku you might want to consider all your code in GitHub compromised and your packages in NPM compromised. Nasty nasty stuff. github.blog/2022-04-15-sec…

Hot take: Anyone dunking on Atlassian about the fact that an outage like this could happen should not be trusted near production environments because they're either lying or don't have the experience to know what they're talking about.

Just wanna say that grown adults who are obsessed with whether or not a kids genitals match the gender assigned to the child is a really big gross red flag. Protect trans kids. Keep these creeps away from them, and away from legislation

LOL! They banned Will Smith for 10 years! Even after he resigned from the Academy! That's 2 years for each finger!🤚🏿 Meanwhile, Roman Polanski is still being nominated for new Oscars. 🤡 The national pastime of the US is punishing Black men disproportionately.

“I commute two hours per day, just to sit on Teams meetings all day.” Hearing this a lot right now. There’s no way to bring 2019 back, how we work has been transformed. So there’s got to be a planned purpose for in-person work. Not just because it’s a Thursday.

There is nothing wrong with compliments. There is everything wrong with sexual harassment. How do you know the difference? If you wouldn’t say it to a woman when she’s stood next to her 7ft heavily built father who’d punch your face in. Then it’s the latter, don’t say it.

Tech is neutral. It can't be good or bad. Just think of other world-changing technologies, like the atomic bomb or various chemical weapons or pop-up ads. It all depends on who's using them and how. This is how I sleep at night

If you want to become well known on Twitter and brand yourself as a developer, it’s become obvious that it’s much more important to know how to game the algorithm with bullshit clickbait and threads than to a actually build things or create educational material.

Want to know the secret to blogging more often? Lower your standards! A post which you don't think is ready yet is a LOT better than a giant folder full of drafts that no-one ever gets to see (Your readers won't ever know how good the thing you wanted to write would have been)

Microservices or not, one of the best things you can do to improve your own productivity is to have a fast, local development environment setup with minimum dependencies and ways to introspect isolated parts of your codebase.

The "trans debate" isn't a debate at all. It's just a bunch of cis people telling us why they don't think we should have rights.

Women in tech, stop what you're doing and listen to me right now. You belong in tech. You are smart and capable enough to be here. Anyone, including yourself, who says otherwise is wrong. You deserve to be where you are, and you can get to where you want to be. Keep going.

Implementors use the terms interchangeably unless they are making distinctions. Even at a TLS working group meeting, no-one will care if you say SSL. Also it's basically always SSL certs, no-one says TLS certs. TLS "Well actually"ing is just idiotic gatekeeping.

It's name is TLS (Transport Layer Security). It's called SSL (Secure Socket Layer). It is network encryption. It's name is called Haddock's Eyes.
