@annabellisimo Fair... Yep nothing funny in there. Definitely not a Bruno / Eminem type scenario

@amfastic He just posted an apology somewhere, it was very not funny and seemed to have no point so I think def not staged.

My hot take is that awards ceremonies are basically celebrity roasts now and anyone sitting in the super elite front row tables should expect a mildly offensive joke at their expense. Also why is everyone calling it a slap, it was fully a punch.

@annabellisimo Probably I'm the millionth person to ask the same question. If not then I agree - seems like a bad precedent for people to go punching each other over a roast like that

@annabellisimo it wasn't staged? It looked like a stage punch to me. youtube.com/watch?v=XCXO0d…

@nigelmcnie I'm not sure what it's for but it looks like it resulted from a patent submitted by a Dr E. Brown, in ... 1886? Great Scott!

@_dianaxavier This game looks so fun. I never got round to trying your funny game recommendations, I might start here. Hope you're good

@nigelmcnie been there with floating point errors and I feel you. Floating poos, more like

@aotearoa_ben thanks Ben, kind offer. I'm waiting a couple of hours to check how close it is to the power line ... if safe then I have a reciprocating saw which might be enough - otherwise I'll let you know, thanks

@nz_walker According to *checks internet*, 442 is a good number. Now I know that this thing exists I think I definitely need one too. kane.co.uk/knowledge-cent…

@nz_walker you usually don't need jquery either nowadays ... and if so, then you could maybe claim that you're more hip than the React hipsters github.com/nefe/You-Dont-…

@SiouxsieW @Giapo @gnat Hi S. Do you have any insight about how soon the vaccine might be approved for younger kids? I've read that that "A clinical trial is ongoing in younger age groups" but I haven't seen timelines

Cabinet will re-evaluate Auckland's lockdown status on Monday. What are we thinking will happen?

@nigelmcnie yeah all good, the timing is really fortunate for me. I had a long-awaited shoulder operation 2 weeks ago. Phew, lucky, and gladly hibernating

@nigelmcnie Nice. Yeah you'll be sweet, sorry for the unsolicited suggestion, but good to know you're good (I already know you're a very calm and capable dude). All the best for the new baby ❤️

@nigelmcnie aww man. So rough. My sis had this last year in London, it's such a challenging journey on a mental health level. Take care, I hope you have good emotional support network (both family/friends wise & maybe worthwhile seeking professional support, IMHO). Hugs

@rarchbarch I'm getting Brave New World style teddybear-caste vibes from this. Eechawawa

Ewoks imply the existence of A, B, C, and Dwoks

@Psykar are these the lyrics for Hey Jude?

Well that's new

@gnat 9 is amazing. DOS used / for options at a time when there couldn't be any collision problems (between /? options and /file paths), because MS-DOS wasn't originally designed to work with directories. Just a floppy disk with a pile of files and no directories. Great find

9. At one point, DOS let you use / instead of \ in file paths and there was a secret setting to turn commandline options from /a to -a. 🤯web.archive.org/web/2010061203… 10. Hypothetical situations don't predict actual responses. (hint: we aren't utilitarians) sci-hub.se/10.1177/095679…

A thread of interesting things I found on the net lately. 1. Douglas Adams's Hyperland documentary, from when people needed linking explained to them. Features: the inventor of the animated icon. archive.org/details/Dougla…

@maelvls Thanks for coming @maelvls , it was a fun time. Thanks also to you, @MaxGrabenhorst , @nancychennz , @Psykar , @pzurek , @lucilletachet , hammerhead etc for joining and for looking so pretty in this pic

Getting up early to attend the lovely Aukland Go meet-up ☀️ Thank you @amfastic for hosting the event!!

@rarchbarch This is next level. Straight past 'probably', all the way past 'yeah nah', all the way to 'naaah'

@amfastic Same! My go-to tweet in these situations:

@MaxGrabenhorst @golang @go_akl for you there is always a ticket left :max-wink:. It would be really nice to see you

@amfastic @golang @go_akl I would only be able to attend the first 45 minutes due to a conflicting appointment. But gonna grab a seat if there are tickets left a day or so before 🤘
