Has anyone else noticed a huge uptick in bots liking ancient tweets of theirs? This platform is dying, I think I'm out

@mattpocockuk Deno already does this!

I wish npm packages could request permissions from developers, like your apps ask to use your location data. "suspicious-package is requesting access to the file system, but 'allow-fs' is not enabled in your package.json"

@AnhPhuNguyen1 @CaineArdayfio Important and slightly scary work. Thanks for sharing! I would bet that nation-state security services have been doing this for at least 5-10 years... I guess we're sleepwalking into that cyberpunk dystopia now 🕶️

Are we ready for a world where our data is exposed at a glance? @CaineArdayfio and I offer an answer to protect yourself here: tinyurl.com/meet-ixray

@RoryStewartUK Thanks for your patient explanation Rory!

In response to the angry replies below here are some more thoughts: The fact that I am questioning the risks of this war does not make me an appeaser. Arguing for peace does not make me an apologist for Hezbollah or the Iranian regime. ( I have spent longer in Iran and seen more directly what makes the Iranian regime horrifying than my critics below…) When I said that the Israeli attacks in Iran and Lebanon will make Iran feel forced to respond + lead to escalation this was a statement of fact not an endorsement of Iran. • Both sides feel that they are not escalating - they are simply “responding” - it is only the other side who is escalating. But that is how escalation always works. • The situation is particularly dangerous because the previous shadow war has been ended. Neither Israel nor Iran is now well-placed to predict the reactions of their opponents in the new situation. If you are interested in engaging with the argument rather than banging a particular twitter drum please try listening to the full discussion on the podcast…

@elonmusk Hmm, is someone forgetting his supreme court nominees knocking down Roe v Wade? Can't overstate how huge a step back that was...

As this video describes, Trump supports women’s rights far more than Kamala!

Sunak's Tory farewell speech: "We reduced absolute poverty. We reduced child poverty. We reduced pensioner poverty". Children in poverty in 2010: 3.6m Children in poverty in 2024: 4.3m Pensioners in poverty in 2010: 1.6m Pensioners in poverty in 2024: 2.1m A liar til the end.

Robert Jenrick gets a £75,000 donation from a fitness company who have ZERO employees He repeatedly refuses to talk about who & why His only response is ‘but Labour Tories couldn’t change a loo roll let alone #ToryCorruption Same old - same old #bbclaurak

@rekdt 🙈

If you think the CUPS issue is bad, you should hear about when there used to be a limit of 1 CUP for every 2 girls Google "2 Girls 1 Cup" for more information

@endingwithali Madness

Current job’s network is BLOCKING SSH TO GITHUB at the office????

@Liv_Boeree Clearly this man has not yet stared down both barrels of a toddler's sneeze / germ warfare assault after first week at nursery. He'll find out the hard way... 😅

Any boss with a modicum of common sense would see the obvious economic benefit of infectiously sick employees staying the fuck home

@CohhCarnage 😢

He's gone, guys. Booker is gone.

Half way to TwitchCon and Laina messages me that Booker (8 year old puppers) is pale, not standing up, cold and may need to get rushed to ER. While she is solo parenting my 3 kids. And people wonder why I don't travel often UGGGGGGGG.

@MarinaPurkiss I think Trump just wants us to all talk about his soundbites no matter how ridiculous they get.

OMG

@Sim_Mix @danishacarterr @Sim_Mix those things are just improving your body and taking you further into yourself... It's better for everyone psychologically when men can ditch the shame and actually open up about their feelings

@danishacarterr Talking to a therapist is how girls do it, we are not the same. what works for men is to improve ourselves in real ways, men dont need safe spaces, we want compettitive spaces to test our selves, gyms , mma, etc or activities that build skills, hobbies etc

if men’s mental health mattered (to men) they’d be creating safe spaces for themselves and each other, pursuing therapy, and creating community. instead, they perpetuate the very behaviors systems that have handicapped them in the first place, refuse to support or create community amongst each other, severely damage the women in their lives who try to care for them, and attack women online for not doing the work for them in replies to tweets like the one below lol.

@BrianRoemmele What's the context here?

Over the next 8 years this will be seen a lot. You get to see it now.

@ShoaibMKhan Wow, just wow. Guessing he'll be that one troll in the room everyone wishes would go away?

MP who objected to a ban on upskirting, objected to the pardoning of WWII hero Alan Turing and opposed ending female genital mutilation has been put forward by the Tories to join the Modernisation Select Committee. theguardian.com/politics/artic…

@labourlewis Climate and Nature Bill seems like the most vital one to me

Hey, bonus - I've got Parliamentary time to put down a Private Members Bill of my choosing. Have an idea for what it should be? Then Quote Tweet it to me....

Oh, we made Elon mad lol.

@mattpocockuk I like finding my bugs before they hit production, crazy I know 🤷

There's an anti-TypeScript post floating around with lots of the typical criticisms: - "Makes devs too slow" - "Only good for MASSIVE projects" - "Too much boilerplate" Let's bring a bit of positivity. What do you like about TS?

@JolyonRubs Finally, a chancellor who's also a human being! 🙌

Oh look a person that LIKES MUSIC AND DANCING???!! How very dare she?!!!!

@techspence Have we ever tried restoring this?

Scare a sysadmin in six words or less I’ll go first… Did you take a backup first?
