@bcantrill @oxidecomputer Do you have any plans to open source your rfd platform?

An essential part of @oxidecomputer's culture is how we approach partners and vendors. We have made public RFD 68, which explains our view of partnership in terms of shared values: rfd.shared.oxide.computer/rfd/0068

@developerjack Can you get out strace or Wireshark to investigate on the system/network level?

I often hear the following: "no fault post-mortems are good", "lead by example" and "boss must resign". It seems to me that only two can be true - even if they stuffed up (do they design security personally?), a precedent of resignation seems an awful way to have good culture?

I find it surprising that, in my brief search, there are no government guidelines on best practices for events for under-18s, or on how to manage duty of care. Have I just missed something, or are we just hoping for the best?

@insoudev @olafurw Yeah! My docs are definitely a work in progress, and I think one big challenge with Nom is the lack of good starter material. There are some good resources in the replies I'll have to add in!

@olafurw ooh! @tfpk_ is currently working on writing some better beginner documentation for Nom, in the form of a guide! Check out out: github.com/tfpk/nom/tree/…

Me: "I think I'm an ok programmer." [looks at the tutorials for parser combinators] Me: "Yeah I'm one of them real dumb idiots aren't I?"

@SpanishPear Seeing this tweet reminded me that was possible, which led to this at about 11pm last night.

#pyconlineau @tfpk_ Ten Tips For Teaching Technical Topics youtu.be/F_Brvb9RDT4

This is so brilliant, thank you @hogesonline !!!

@thewrongjames @SpanishPear I think the issue is realistically that in many respects, Uni is trying to take the place of Vocational Education. CS1 and SEng courses would make more sense at a TAFE/ apprenticeship style education. They don't need academics teaching them like proofs/AI research do.

@SpanishPear Would the situation perhaps be improved if research institutions were completely separate from tertiary education institutions, or would either or both sides then loose something important?

A PhD ≠ training in teaching. For advanced courses the tradeoffs might be different, but for CS1/2, having a PhD seems uncorrelated with a good course.

@hogesonline youtu.be/5c0BvOlR5gs is one of my favourite talks on this topic, and I think the opening insight is really good -- there are a bunch of questions we don't ask when we start thinking about teaching coding. I don't think this article answers any of the right ones.

@insoudev @jashankj @SpanishPear And it's not even open source, which would allow us to fix the broken mess.

@jashankj wow... thanks vscode cc. @SpanishPear @tfpk_

So I'm about to go digging into the resource gluttony of VS @Code's remote development extension.

.@groklearning (now @grokacademy) paid me less than my male peers and lied about it. This happens to women, especially in tech, all. the. time. We fix it by talking about it. Please share. shelley.medium.com/grok-learning-…

@__xurtis > Collective punishment for individual acts ... and, in general, any form of torture or cruelty, are forbidden. (Article 87, 3rd Geneva Convention). Not that I'm saying it applies here, just seems a little inadvisable to break it.

@jashankj I'm unclear what the issue is here?

$partner has suggested we get an ice cream scoop, but, to my mind, that just means we'd have to get *more* ice cream to justify it...

@jashankj I would love to see your "How To Shitpost" presentation, with LaTeX slides and practical workshop after...

oh goodie, I got suggested for a corp social media training course ... guess I've got to ease up on the shitposting for a while.

@ACM_Ethics @TheOfficialACM Is there a reason why ethics.acm.org links to an "Inbox Mailer" form?

@adambspencer Isle, aisle, I'll, eye'll (granted that last one is a reach)

Girlfriend noted last night, while doing a cryptic crossword together (that’s how we roll) “pause, paws, pores and pours” are all homophones. Are there any other sets of 4 homophones?

@jashankj You could use YouTube's new system of dividing up videos into smaller chunks, and then have info in the description about dependencies, etc?

being able to deliver and view the sequence in a contiguous block would be key, but then being able to delimit it neatly ... I wonder what that could look like.

thought: deliver a lecture as a contiguous-but-delimited sequence of small (~10-15 minute) segments, which students can then pick up in sequence (and possibly with clearer dependencies) asynchronously

If this isn't the most 2020 screenshot I've taken, I don't know what is.
