@LinkedInHelp Apparently I can't, well not without creating new accounts and forking over ever more data to X/Twitter or whatever crazy chat system they now use. Please reach out to me using my registered Linked-in contact address, my user name is the same as this account. Same Avatar.

@shawty_ds I’m glad to hear the issue has been resolved. If you experience any further difficulties with your LinkedIn account, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re always here to assist you. – VJ

it seems barmy having to use one social network to get help on another... but @LinkedInHelp how on earth do I get to talk to someone to regain access to my LI account, trying to access help asks me to login, trying to verify myself says I need to login

@LinkedInHelp I have some information to pass to you, which I tried to pass via the normal "website contact" methods , but was replied to with silly replies that actually proved the person reading the emails was not reading them properly. I will contact you via a DM however if I am able to.

@IKnowSoftware @AdamRackis Start a Podcast will, you know I'll be there ;-) - PS: your input is needed in the LiDNUG moderators group on face book :-)

@AdamRackis TypeScript trippin' with Rackis would be a nice podcast title

I decided to try ayahuasca and do the most unhinged TypeScript thing I could think of This blog post is the result Link below 👇

@LinkedInHelp Thanks for the reply... I don't know what happened, but I vented on Facebook linked in also, and now 30 minutes later it's all working again and fixed. Thank you.

@shawty_ds We are sorry for the trouble with your account, and are here to help. DM us your email address and full name. Thanks! - PK twitter.com/messages/compo…

@a_box_of_frogs @Wisdom_HQ what kind of truck :-)

@Wisdom_HQ Buy a truck

@eevblog @cqcqcqdx 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@cqcqcqdx It's clearly pregnant.

hmm?

@peteohanlon @Aaronontheweb 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Aaronontheweb Yes. If by mac and Linux, you mean you've given your Windows devices names and called on Mac, and one Linux.

"Oh Visual Studio, there's a new one coming out? Does it run on Mac and Linux now?"

hey.. Hi @Iancook17179 nice to see you following me... been a very long time since our paths have crossed :-)

@eevblog Free version of Sketchup.

What is the easiest free CAD program that allows me to import a photo, calibrate it and measure stuff? And don't say Open SCAD.

Erm NO @HP just because I have one of your printers attached to my PC, it does not mean you can just run any software you feel like, when you feel like.... IT'S MY PC... NOT YOURS!

@pete_codes @hackaday Have you seen the NEO6502 yet? It's a 6502 CPU Powered by an rPi Pico. Pico does all the video, I/O, etc etc and even pretends it's the 64k of useable memory space that the 6502 CPU expects. Some remarkable stuff being made with these things.

@NathanGloyn You could always come to "Tech Connect" in September Nathan ;-) weareconnectevents.com/speakers

@bart_read @davepl1968 The Genie has left the bottle....

@JerryKarlin That would be about right 😂😂😂😂

@shawty_ds Solidarity between Microsoft apps! 😄😂🤣🙀

Can someone PLEASE explain to me, why in 2024 when MS-Teams crashes it takes the ENTIRE PC & OS Down with it, but any other software just disappears from memory and unloads!! #pileofrubbish

@peteohanlon @DevLeaderCa I need, then testing it routinely to make sure it stays working.

@peteohanlon @DevLeaderCa Like @peteohanlon if it's a tool for my own use, or a proof of concept or similar then no I won't write tests or prescribe to any kind of TDD driven behaviour. I've always found it weird to write a test that tells me how to write the code I need instead of writing the code

Programmers, do you have situations where you choose not to write tests? This is in contrast to "not being able to".
