Lots of UK folk don’t know that medical cannabis is legal but it is through private clinics. There are obviously requirements & it’s heavily regulated (you’re not allowed to smoke, only vape) & you have to have had two other treatments for your condition that didn’t work. It can be pricey & things go out of stock if they’re popular & there’s lots of trial and error. But I’ve had success with it. I’m on it for pain but I get strains that are also effective for my ADHD.

My one and only superpower as an open source maintainer is the phrase “Sorry for the trouble!”

My team actually likes Gherkin and is pumped that I suggested we use and implement it. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

My boss set up a Slack bot that sends me weekly reminders that I’m doing a good job and not getting fired. It may be the nicest thing any boss has ever done for me. 😅

Not my circus, not my monkeys: good luck with all that My circus, my monkeys: I am running a successful monkey circus Not my circus, my monkeys: I am running a successful monkey-rental service My circus, not my monkeys: oh no, oh man

To instrumentalize what my sister is saying below: every time someone says DEI say “you mean civil rights?” Every time someone says they are against woke reply “oh so you’re a segregationist!” Words have meaning! Don’t allow that nonsense to stand. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Didn't feed it enough fossil fuels and now it's in a huff

I also have an intimidatingly large room to fill. So if you'd like to see a guy with a beard who *isn't* a billionaire talking about embedding a culture of Open Source, please come along 😄 https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event/fosdem-2025-4411-lessons-learned-open-sourcing-the-uk-s-covid-tracing-app/ #FOSDEM

Pro-tip: Turn off your hearing aid before entering a public bathroom to block out unwanted noises from neighbouring cubicles.

Right now as we grapple with a tsunami of changes to Ashley's work I'm grateful for every man in tech (you know who you are) who has ever taken a phone call or a zoom call to give me advice, share your strategies, and otherwise extend your information and access and privilege to our household. Despite everything we face in tech the kindness and solidarity and community I have experienced light part of my way and help me understand what we can be to each other

seeing the AI fatigue hit mainstream is exceptionally satisfying can’t wait for 1-2 years from now when “no AI” is a genuine selling point

this world is a prison

There aren't a ton of video game industry CEOs as beloved as Insomniac's Ted Price, who announced his retirement today: https://sonyinteractive.com/en/news/blog/ted-price-announces-retirement/

Attention furries, weebs, neckbeards, and other cringe enthusiasts of kubernetes: I've ordered more Uwubernetes stickers, and they should be here in time for FOSDEM.

Brilliant to see @snarfed.org@snarfed.org go the non-profit route with BridgyFed! https://techcrunch.com/2024/12/17/bridgy-fed-a-project-to-connect-the-open-social-web-is-now-becoming-a-nonprofit/

These should help make it easier to recover from common errors while authoring. https://kitten.small-web.org #Kitten #errorMessages #design #usability #authoring #SmallWeb #SmallTech #HTML #CSS #JavaScript #NodeJS #server #framework #platform #web #dev

There are about 4 labelers and none of them work 100% of the time. I'm subscribed to all 4 and STILL get pictures missing alt text. Not sure if there's something that stops labelers from catching this properly or what, but it's something the app should have natively for accessibility anyway

Bluesky would be 3 times better if there was an option to not show posts with media that lack alt text

Reusable, composable, single responsibility — these are all things good SaaS products have in common with UNIX command line tools.

Ramblings about common free trial lengths and time-to-convert.

Enterprise sales don't have to be crazy.

“Oh yeah, I’m totally into fin dom”

I judge these Christmassy chocolates Not Quality Enough (most of the time)

Logged on after a purposeful day of not watching the news, logging off now after seeing the trash fire it was always gonna be. For the next 4 years, I'm going to try to focus on helping my local community and orgs. It's the best thing I can think to do in the face of... all of this.

Who made this 🤣

learned a LOT today

A PR of mine was accepted into go-wasm-http-server (https://github.com/nlepage/go-wasm-http-server) that makes it #TinyGo compatible! Now your Go webservers can be built into tiny WASM blobs and run in ServiceWorkers 🥳
