Not sure the source, but found this on FB, and it genuinely made me guffaw. The solution to the trolley problem

Why is Brighton flipping me off?!?

Classic reinforcement of gender stereotypes from the BBC. The national team thrashes USA in the Women's Rugby World Cup, and the headline story is a male footballer daydreaming about being a wrestler. FFS 🤦

And that was that - I'm exhausted, elated, and excited for next time! Thank you to all at Umbraco who made it a really special week!

After an insanely busy week with DDD South West finishing, I thought I'd write up a quick post based on a few conversations I had during the run up and at the event itself

I would but I think I may have a been tagged!

If you get a chance to see this talk then you absolutely must! @rendle.dev giving an insight into everything we do as software developers, and all the mistakes we’ve ever made along the way!!! (go read the instructions on a packet of toothpicks)

A brilliant evening at @dotnetsouthwest.bsky.social

The very fact that @rendle.dev has no idea what they’re doing up there, still gets up there and delivers a cracking keynote just illustrates how amazing they are and what lovely ideas they have and can share!

Impostors unite!!

@davidwhitney.co.uk at @ndcconferences.com wrapping up the talks with a look at building your game engine in the browser- super interesting dive into a new topic for me

Well he looks a lot like Tuffers

@cliffordagius.bsky.social kicking off day 2 of @ndcconferences.com #NDCLondon with a look at whether an AI CoPilot could be a CoPilot

To wrap up day 1 at #NDCLondon @kevlin.bsky.social managed the dual feats of bringing a discussion around spacetime around distributed systems and not falling off the stage
January 29, 2025 at 5:54 PM
Wow, love that this was shared without a hint of irony 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️🤦

And @nickchapsas.bsky.social has some SERIOUSLY cursed C#, both brilliant but also guaranteed to wreck your codebase.

I might need to track the repo down, or try and replicate some of it 😈😂

Having a lot of fun at #NDCLondon so far - fantastic keynote by @scott.hanselman.com to a packed room.

AI is not the plumber, it’s the spanner. It’s also the parrot, just repeating what it is taught back to us. Those who learn to use the tool to its best will get the most from it
