Yeah, I never even considered using C# for anything on ATProto. I just jumped in immediately and learned both ATProto and Rust at the same time!

That must be annoying, but on the plus side, you will look much younger than your peers when you're in middle age!

AWS down again? Perhaps now would be a good time to consider more stable alternatives? I have been moving a lot of my stuff over to European providers and I've never been happier with that decision than I am now! @scaleway.com 🇪🇺

I’d never realised there was an acoustic version of Take On Me until I heard it in The Last of Us Season 2 — and wow, that scene was beautiful.

Afterward, I found a-ha’s original acoustic performance and was blown away

Here’s my take on it

Just discovered this duo, Year of the Lion, featuring Stewart Brock from another of my favourite bands, Prides.

And I'm absolutely obsessed with this song 😍

I cannot fathom how anyone would advise hobbling a tried and tested industry, that is responsible for countless jobs, in support of another that is yet to show any material productivity.

The creative industry is huge and is one of main the drivers of economic growth

Ah yes, naive Nick Clegg, the man who couldn't see the Tories' stitch-up right in front of his face...

Yeah, he should totally be trusted to provide useful and well developed insights on a whole range of subjects.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

There always seems to be a group of Gen Z'ers in this Pret for lunch; and they always bring their mate, who clearly went to public school and thus cannot regulate the volume of his voice

Rarrh Rarrh Rarrh!

Yeah, it reminds me of the time I got chatting to a cab driver in LA, he remarked on how good the food is in London, then went on to mention Nandos as the best example 😳

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...
