Based on the replies to this tweet, I've compiled a nice 32 bracket single elimination bracket of all the shit we've been served since the purchase of Twitter. Each day I'll make a new poll with citations and let the public decide. The seeding was random, the results? Who knows!?

For those who trust me: Goto your Amazon account, sign out of all your devices, everything, everywhere all your Echos (yes I know it's a pain), reset your password, delete 2FA and any tokens and reset them. Now. That doesn't include Fido / Yubikeys but does include Auth tokens. Do it now. As much a pain as it is to reset Echo and all smart devices, trust me, please do it. I can't tell you more yet, but I am being ethical and you need to actually realise I have a clue. It's been a scary day

Just re-published my popular posts page with a list of some of the bangers I've written over the years 🙌🏽
You know what a healthy relationship is? I got a haircut yesterday and my barber said he was *thrilled* that I came in because he saw me on my TikTok live stream earlier that morning and said my hair was looking pretty rough and he was gonna text me 😬
I often tell people that it's better to rest and recover, than to push through, heal slower and/or do work you aren't proud of. Practicing what I preach today. My body wins this round, but after a day's rest I reckon I'll be back to full form tomorrow. Never feel guilty for not being well friends :blobfoxheartcute:

So how does Mastodon pay its engineers? Mostly...it doesn't. Eugen and Claire are the only paid devs on Mastodon. Everyone else is making updates *for free*, as a hobby, on the side, after their day job. People are building CalcKey for free. People are building just about every fediverse product for free, as part of the open source community. It was particularly amusing when Elon said he wanted to open source the algorithm-- Jack Dorsey saying he wanted to create an open source protocol-- Nearly all of the Fediverse is open source. The algorithms are already open source. The protocol is a W3C standard (ActivityPub) just like HTML. The future these dopes have been trying to build already exists. There's just no money or power in it for them, so they have no interest and pretend it doesn't exist.
Jack Dorsey enthusiastically co-signed the deal that betrayed 200 million Twitter users and handed their accounts over to a fucking right wing egomaniacal billionaire. You’ll have to excuse me if I’m not eager to sign up for another one of this dude’s schemes.
Well I had a delightful evening watching Paramore, with Bloc Party supporting! Kele and Hayley even did a duet and it was amazing.
And so begins the flight home. It’ll be nice to spend some of 2023 in London!

Today's test of the UK emergency broadcast system is going to be disappointing, isn't it? I mean, I have become excited by the geek aspects of the whole thing - but the wall-to-wall coverage has really built this up now to the point of hype. It's a shame, we had wine in and were planning a "emergency alert party"
As mentioned in the above toot yesterday, the UK government are going to be scaring the pants off half the country at 3pm today with an emergency alert test. If you have a hidden phone you don't want someone finding out about, turn off emergency alerts in that phone's settings or turn the phone off. Otherwise it's very likely to make a loud noise once the test commences. Edit: Going through the replies suggests it's best to turn the SETTING off and NOT just the phone.
Tailscale is amazing. But you already knew that, right? There’s nothing more satisfying than being able to set up a secure network in seconds, almost like magic — except maybe realizing it’s Friday when you thought it was Thursday, but I digress.

The worst thing that ever happened in software engineering was when Kirk asked Scotty how long something would take and Scotty said thirty minutes and Kirk said you’ve got five and Scotty got it done in five and impressionable children watched this and grew up to become managers.

With me looking to get back to a bit more public speaking, I've revamped my talks site so it's a little easier to see the previous talks I've done, as well as moving content from my site to the talks site.
Deffo still needs work, but it's better than what was there before 😅

AI isn’t “intelligence”. It’s stolen data and artists’ stolen labour cherry-picked to conform to techbro programmer preferences. The speed of operation is a technological achievement, sure, but in the end it’s just Plagiarism 2.0.
