https://awscommunity.social/@Quinnypig/112452921509401306 It appears that Slack is due for its annual GDPR compliance training and this year greed has made them choose the more expensive training option.

Just had a really great call with @aaronpk@aaronparecki.com, and all I'm gunna say is I'm really excited for what's coming. A one hour call turning into a four hour call is perfectly fine when it's as amazingly good as that call!

My home town, like many, has a Hollywood-inspired ‘walk of fame’ where local celebrities names are included in stars. Yet the dude I went to school with who had the massive willy who went to LA to star in porn films, is not amongst them.

I've just done my first run-through of my #EMFcamp talk. Exactly 27 minutes long. Which means - assuming no one laughs, claps, or heckles - I'll have exactly enough time for 1½ "not so much a question, more of a comment"s at the end 😄

“Gowron’s Eyes” would be a good Klingon death metal band name.

I finally did it. I used an LLM. A couple of months ago, MS added its Copilot to Windows. I turned it off. But the latest update shoved it back in my face and tried to get me to let it use my data. So I asked it a question: How do I get rid of Copilot? It suggested I uninstall it like any other program, but MS removed that option. But Copilot went on to tell me the exact registry key to change to block it from loading, and now it's gone.

@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me Nicely done with the GitHub thing! Can’t complain at four grand and a pair of socks :) Excellent work, lad!

Woke up at midnight and went to the roof. Did not disappoint.

worst part of woke cancel culture is that buying a carton of Um Bongo feels problematic somehow

The core here is: - I am accepting work - If you are doing open source stuff, a hobby project, etc. I'm $25/hour. - If you're a tech company, I'm $125/hour. - If you're a small business, etc, I'm in between those two numbers, but closer to the hobby number. - I can do lots of weird computer bullshit, and I can contract out to people I already work with and trust for the small number of things I can't do myself. - Initial discussions are free, and I'll quote the whole project up front. - I'd rather do weird BS for individuals than corporate stuff for corporations.

ADHD is great for being dropped into a crisis situation, consuming all the documentation, talking to everyone, and then synthesizing the gestalt back in a format useful to exec leadership and their board, I think? Or it's just the adhd is comorbid with me being me?

and the good software development methodology is also laziness because i don't wanna deal with bug reports from broken releases

I'm so tired of seeing "LFG" everywhere that I have now decided it stands for "lookin' fresh, girlies" and that makes me feel better about it

Want to take a vacation from open source maintenance? You should. Did you know that GitHub has a profile status feature to mark yourself as busy, mute notifications, and prompt folks who mention you that you're busy for a while? Before today the longest (optional) "automatically clear this status" preset was a week. Now the longest preset is a month. Because let's face it, a week is not always a long enough break from the demands of other people. #OpenSource #GitHub #OSS

I do wish I could tell recruiters that I’ll never apply to a company that reports record profits and also lays people off. Like why are we wasting each others time talking about corporate mottos and exciting projects? Your leadership treats people like disposable cups. That’s all I need to know. #tech #layoffs

All these tech billionaires are like a version of the movie Big, in which a pre-adolescent boy wakes up in the body of an aging Howard Hughes. Or Colonel Kurtz. Or a sardine. #JackDorsey

Tomorrow is my first ever #IndieWebCamp.... I'm so excited and a bit ashamed that it took me so long 🫣

I've never been more sympathetic to a fictional antagonist than in Avengers 2 when Ultron experienced the internet for like 5 seconds and then decided that humanity should be destroyed
