@mrgrigoras44 @Runitup858 Hi. I'm trying to track down someone with your name in Australia. I had a package delivered to my home today with this name.

@TomisCrowley In Ballarat, I've only seen and heard people applauding the decision. Ballarat was never going to be prepared in time. I doubt that the motivation is financial; regional Victoria was never going to be prepared to run the Games in time, especially in Ballarat.

Did the Vic gov underestimate the reaction to the Comm Games thing? Seems to me they thought nobody would really care, but it’s everywhere and much angrier than the airport rail delay. Then again maybe they cop a small L and everyone forgets, esp with World Cup about to start.

Over the last few months, I’ve been working on a little project with the ABC here in Australia to help people visualise their exposure in data breaches. This has just gone live today and I reckon they’ve done an amazing job, check it out: abc.net.au/news/2023-05-1…

@kentcdodds People seem to change their database abstraction layers more than they change their databases.

@AndrewYNg My toilet was making a hissing noise and leaking. It told me to go to the hardware store and buy a particular part. The toilet is now fixed.

"How good a feature is built, is how easily it can be removed".
Learned this from @mcilvena. A golden guide for architecting a feature into an existing software product. #Coding #architecture #SoftwareDeveloper

@tyroga We should play online. I haven't played for ages. Renae and I reconnected the Switch to the TV this week to play through Super Mario 3D World again (which also has online multiplayer)

Slide decks hide can shallow thinking. Narratively structured memos are harder to write because they require better thinking. It’s worth it.
Matthew Yglesias@mattyglesias
I see a lot of organizations relying too much on slide decks relative to actual written memos for their internal communications. Presentations are great but prose has a unique value in clarifying thought and creating an unambiguous record.

@MattyWTF1 Throw away the "follow a team per episode" template. Then observe the narrative of the season and tell that story.

What would you change to make Drive to Survive better?

I love the Russian people. That is why I have to tell you the truth. Please watch and share.

@markdalgleish Hear me out...
Swift Playgrounds.
Not JavaScript/HTML/CSS, but a great way to get kids into "I can build stuff with code that I can see changing as I go." Once they've figured that out, then hit them with "you can do this and share it on the internet for anyone to use"

Does anyone have any recommendations for resources to teach younger kids (<10) JavaScript and/or HTML/CSS?
