Are my eyes going funny or is the kerning in this heading on GitHub a little more extreme than usual?
A screenshot showing: 09 - Explore service definitions In this exercise we'll begin to understand what the service layer is and what it's for, by extending the rudimentary definition we already have in there. The heading is in bolder and larger font with quite a lot of space in between each character

I remember when I had to write my thesis* for the final year of my Classics degree at uni, I had to write 10,000 words, which seemed a mountain's worth. How insignificant that feels today.

I do like a good "whodunnit" wridgeu.com/blog/type-of... thanks @wridgeu.bsky.social
the type of the database table and work area (or internal table) are not unicode convertible
troubleshooting EWM sandbox dumps caused by Unicode syntax errors in /SCWM/HU_SELECT. How incorrect .APPEND structure placement breaks type compatibility.

I'm building on the exercise content for my hands-on workshop at #UKISUGConnect, and I'm fusing an indelible link between this work and @caughtinjoy.bsky.social 's superb Mercury album which is on repeat while I've been working on it. Recommended 🎶 music.youtube.com/watch?v=7GKx...

Wow, what happened to Replit? I just wanted to write a simple Python script, so went to Replit, but there's now so much AI "help" getting in the way, I eventually gave up, having been unable to get started.

Did you know we have more than 5000 miles of waterways in the UK? That's the same as coast to coast of the USA and back again. And it deserves protecting. #iwa #inlandwaterways #ukcanals #navigatetherisk #5000miles #wedigcanals
