Explaining how trade-offs need to be made, and how things are prioritised is nuanced thinking, and requires someone to articulate some overarching guiding principles, but that would also be incredibly wonderful to see and hear.

Give people housing that’s affordable and fit to live in, decent healthcare, a sense of fairness in how people are taxed, and a chance to feel the world isn’t falling apart in the worst ways, and who knows what will happen.

You know, I’d be happier if @teamlabouruk.bsky.social made policy as if they wanted to improve society and keep Labour voters rather than pandering to authoritarian-leaning people who’ll never vote for them.

I am pretty firmly convinced that for making changes in a codebase using AI, TDD is the way forwards. You write the test, which adds a sliver of functionality, then get the LLM to make the code work. Then tell it to refactor the bits that look ugly, or do it yourself by hand.

I see that we’ve got bored of “this is terrible” and decided to up the ante to “this is even more terrible” in some kind of bizarre sadomasochistic fashion.

Is this Ai generated or some kind of fucking nightmare?

The absence of trans people from the British media is part of the problem. I'd like to offer mentoring to trans people trying to get into journalism, free of charge. Most of my experience is obviously in political commentary, but I might be passably useful in news and other areas.

I see we’ve decided to climb aboard our own little bathysphere of doom to plumb new depths of “this is terrible”

I see we’re attempting to plumb new depths of terrible.

I’d love to, but I’m not sure that’s the best platform for holding a livestream given who owns the platform and their relationship to the US presidency.

Show some decency, and please pick somewhere else for this sort of thing.

Well, to almost no one’s surprise, this continues to be awful.

Well, this is all continuing to be terrible.

“TL;DR” is short for “Too Long; Didn’t Read”.

People occasionally add a TL;DR section to particularly long documents, much as we used to use summaries before people forgot about adding them :)

We’re going to need some more ways of expressing schadenfreude than “FAFO” and the “leopard eating face party” thing because they’re going to be used a heck of a lot over the next few years.

Folks, please put the TL;DR section at the start of the thing I’m not going to read because it’s too long.

Well, this has all started terribly.

They weren’t far wrong :) It was a ludicrous way to solve the problem, but the only way I could think of that addressed all the other issues with browser automation.

Someone asked me where the video for the original #WebDriver talk was. They're now unlisted by YouTube (booo!) but for posterity they can found here:

Ah! The difference between “inline link” and “links all gathered at the bottom of the doc” is mind bending. Never get it right.

Nope. But it’s quite nice.

They’ll only find out if you blow them away with karaoke….

A todo list. Sometimes I even use it.
