The right time to learn about how your backups work is not when you need to do a restore. That tends to be when you find out how your backups don’t work the way you expect them to.

My take on GitHub Copilot announcing a new pricing model is that AI is being treated as a utility, where pricing is based on usage / consumption.

Listened to a podcast episode covering the history of computing. Was impressed with the fluent flow of knowledge from the guest, until I heard something that I knew wasn’t correct. Mosaic had images before Netscape even existed. Someone on the Internet was wrong…

IPv6 support was recently announced for DynamoDB. Wonder if it was just a coincidence that DNS relating to DynamoDB had an issue around the same time.

Now Blogger is suggesting auto-generation of key words for Google. It would be more useful if mobile redirection didn’t prevent Google from even indexing my content. #Blogger #Google

Blogger redirects mobile clients even when a responsive design layout is in place, that trips up Google’s “Mobile first” indexing.

Odd that Google cannot index content on Blogger, as it redirects for mobile clients. Suggests a lack of alignment across products, that could presumably lead to them end of life ing Blogger, since content on the platform gets less traffic and is not reachable from Google search.

Seems like virtual threads are the gateway drug to companies adopting non-LTS versions of Java in production.

Scintillating, bizarre, inspiring. Catchphrases from 30 odd years ago.

Nice day out at Kaka Point.

@InboundFrog Ouchie.

$15 for a pint of beer...

The joys of dependency upgrades - switching between, “Why doesn’t this work any more” and “How did this ever work?”

@davefarley77 It depends…

How do you make a developer angry in just 2 WORDS? 👇

@starbuxman Mainly the podcast.

Fuzzy ducklings.

@InboundFrog I like comedy.

@Sounie Something you're not telling people?

Parenting Hell podcast season 7 episode 15 is the best so far.

@InboundFrog Must’ve encountered the new logo sign at a bad time - stunned easily, the Norwegian blue.

@Sounie No, no. It's just stunned.

Is Twitter now an ex parrot? Was it the Norwegian blue all along?
