Hey one of my suppliers has a deal on Dell U2723QE 27" monitors for just AU$675 including GST and delivery in Australia. I got one of these and it's great kit, and the supplier is awesome, based in Newtown in Sydney. Thoroughly legit. Let me know asap and I'll put you in touch.

@drspacejunk to the courtesy phone? Sarah Taber says she wants to talk to ISS about food safety plans. Maybe she’s already sorted but if not maybe randos tweeting can help. Did you ever get hold of some ISS rubbish? overcast.fm/+_NraO7bTw/06:…

Turns out there’s a term for our misguided confidence in a dashboard full of happy green lines: “surrogation”. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrogati…

again asking the media not to indulge a second of Labor's "the best form of welfare is a job" stuff
take 1 second to look at the cohort on jobseeker. the largest group is women over 50.

@K4y1s @mipsytipsy @LaunchDarkly @wiredferret Well, yeah, but y’all can’t say they didn’t warn you? I haven’t heard a feature flag pitch that didn’t call out the urgency of pruning feature flags once you’d turned them on to 100%.

@mipsytipsy @LaunchDarkly @wiredferret Just a few weeks ago, I read that people are now struggling with huge lists of feature flags that made their codebase untestable 🤔

Hey, I am hearing through the grapevine that I should have cited or credited some of the folks who did a lot of work in this area, and this is super true!!

I love this. Goes for pretty much any software-adjacent specialty discipline: security, QA, SRE, design, etc.
"You shouldn't need their approval to push a change, but holy shit you should listen to them when they weigh in."

@jennplusplus @mipsytipsy @crowfeatherdev i think a critical point for me back when i worked in QA was getting into infosec - pentesters and security researchers are pretty much specialised QA, so you shouldn't need their approval to push a change. but holy god you should listen to their concerns about your design

I'm telling you, precision-targeted ultra-high conversion Pig Butchering' scams on an absolutely massive scale. On the upside less human trafficking and enslavement of operators, but unless you get some firewalls up grandmas going to empty her bank account out.

Well Meta's 65 billion parameter language model just got leaked to the public internet, that was fast. Get ready for loads of personalized spam and phishing attempts. Open sourcing these models was a terrible idea

After this sequence of 38 photographs was taken in February of 1990, sister ship Voyager 1's camera systems were shut down forever. There were no more targets that could be usefully imaged. My cameras had already been shut down the previous October. Photo: Caltech/JPL/NASA
