Are there any TLDs that weren't in the original lineup that serve any purpose other than hosting scams?

Hardcore!

Out of interest, have you ever tried feeding the pelican image back to the model and asking it to improve it?

Spectacular ad placement under Edith Pritchett's typically excellent cartoon in @theguardian.com today.

Hmm. This might have actually benefited from an AI copy-edit. Glad to hear humans will 'keep staying in the loop', whatever that means... #azure

Quickest way to reliably find business logic flaws is to change your mindset:

You're not looking for bugs, you're hunting for assumptions.

Somewhere out there, a dev assumed no one would ever do *that*. So be the first person to do it.

This sounds really interesting! Are slides or recordings available?

Spectacular #dumyat hill race tonight in #stirling. Thanks to everyone involved!

This! Is the proper way to eat porridge. The porridge should be made with just water, oats and salt.

If you're in the market for a used laptop, you could do a lot worse than a Dell Latitude 7290. 16GB RAM, 256SSD, Thunderbolt 3 for well under £200. Runs Win 11 nicely, if that's your thing.

We add all of the app registrations we care about to a security group, then we have an icinga check which uses graph API to list all secrets for each app registration in that group and warn if they are close to some expiry threshold. Old-skool but works nicely.

Once my fingers decide how they want to do something there's little point in brain arguing. Could you:

$ alias 'tailscale plan'='tailscale up'
$ alias 'terraform up'='terraform plan'

Great day of First Responder training yesterday with @nccgroupinfosec.bsky.social This should be mandatory for IT professionals. #infosec #cybersecurity

This analogy really... unzips the problem. Next let's look at the effect of regular flushing on queue length 😂

Replacement might be overkill, but these are pretty ancient walls!

50Kg radiator fell off the wall this week. Turns out it was held on with 4 of these. I don't think they even went through the plaster... #diynightmare

It's always DNS (or, the lack thereof..)!

Windows laptop with VSCode remote to an on-prem Linux box has proved remarkably effective for me. I nearly fell off my chair when I copied my ~/.ssh/ from my old WSL to a new OOTB Win 11 install, and SSH Just Worked. Still haven't installed WSL on the new machine.

I can't put my finger on it, but I'm finding the prose style of the most recent Claude Sonnet is significantly less clunky and 'AI-seeming' than other models. From Simon's examples here I'd say this includes GPT-4.5. I just find Claude's output more readable (I also prefer its pelicans :)

Upgrading a Terraform-managed MySQL Flexible Server Azure offers the option to in-place upgrade an instance of Azure Database for MySQL Flexible Server (its managed MySQL-as-a-Service offering) from major version 5 to 8. Pretty handy. My MySQL flexible...

It's nice when something that intuitively-should-work-but-probably-wont, actually does gklee.hashnode.dev/upgrading-a-...

Likewise for me for Azure. Not least because debugging weird issues exposes me to parts of the API I'd probably never have interacted with otherwise 😂

Do you have any examples of human completions of the pelican-on-a-bicycle test? I feel like Claude now does as well as I could do!

Has @cunkonlife.bsky.social tried interviewing ChatGPT?
