Seriously. Writing code is a team sport. Look up stuff others have figured out before you. Ask others for their thoughts. Learn from others. Laugh with others about your mistakes (I promise that they have made them too). Avoid people who act like they know everything, they don't.

Looks like @theavclub's RSS feed has been broken for a few weeks so I guess I won't be seeing any news from them any more.

I guess I'm done here, see y'all around.

Looks like @pimoroni accidentally shipped me the wifi version of their Pico 2 based LED strip driver, which is neat because I had wanted wifi and hadn't realised the one I ordered didn't have it. I was surprised when I saw the new product announcement for the thing I already had

Today I learned what happens when you accidentally short the 240V AC mains by using the wrong connections with your multimeter. I'm probably lucky it was just a couple of blown fuses and a partially melted meter probe

but they were, all of them, deceived, for a second head of the department of government efficiency was made

The fact that Musk has no idea he's being given a fake busywork job makes me wonder how much management experience he actually has.

This will be like those team projects at school where one of the team will be all talk but actually do nothing leaving the other left to do all the work.

He was the worst President in history. And when he got voted out, he tried to stage a coup. Then he stole national secrets and sold the ones he didn't store in the bathroom. He was convicted of fraud, found liable of sexual assault and convicted of 34 felonies. He is half a

Fuck off do we

I see @fasthosts are pulling the scummy tactic of making it impossible to cancel renewal on your VPS without a phonecall where they offer you a discount to stay. Thank you for telling me how little you value my time and how much you've been overcharging me for the last year.

Submitted my ballot for the US election using the deeply ridiculous and insecure system that Oregon uses for overseas voters.

I have been laughing at this entirely too long...

And after getting me into work late the bus home has been cancelled at least four times in a row. I should have left already but the next running bus is in an hour, no idea whether that will get cancelled too.

Never ceases to amaze me how bad @arrivamidlandsE drivers are at stopping at bus stops. You would think that that's their one job but no, now I guess I'll just be late for work

Not even two years old and the battery in my @KeychronMK K8 Pro is already dead. Disappointing.

Did you have a terrific birding trip to Iceland in May, but then lose your SD card with your 3,700 bird photos in Norfolk? I have it!
