I had a really bad experience with Pulumi in February/March that probably cost me around 4 weeks of lost dev time, possibly more. Context: Not a DevOps guy, created a serverless site using Typescript, created the infrastructure for it

DownDog is one of the best apps I've ever come across, and definitely the best stretching app I've encountered having tried many yoga apps on the App Store plus Pliability and GoWod https://www.downdogapp.com

The ironic thing about this is that it reminds me of how the podcast used to be a few years before Spotify, before it got bogged down in politics and Joe asked more interesting questions and it was just generally funner. I just listened to

I think this price might be part Apple tax. I just went on the browser and it's £11.99 but it's £15.99 through the iOS Youtube App so it's actually better value than IE if bought online.

Video game and movie illustrators are completely fucked which is sad. Very interested to see how this plays out in the comic/graphic novel space. I could theoretically see the big hitters getting behind human artists for the marketing

Imagine you yourself no longer meet these standards. What happens if you’re in a car crash and you’re seriously injured for years and lose your socioeconomic status and your chiselled abs? Do you think your husband should leave you because

Hard disagree with this. The majority don’t care about twitter, the only people who absolutely adore it are journalists and techies which is why it was such a big deal in the news and on forums and everyone in the real world just went about

Fairly high profile people like Neil Gaiman created mastodon accounts so I think there definitely was the potential for something else to take over if that something else was user friendly enough. Mastodon was never going to be it but there

They really needed this to exist about 6 months ago or whenever it was that Musk bought Twitter. There was a mass exodus then to Mastodon, and if they’d have brought this out then I reckon they would have done a good job of immediately deth

Is it though? The people I’ve met in construction across all spans of life are generally friendlier, healthier and happier than those working the desk jobs and earning more money.

I’ve got a Garmin 7x. Sometimes I think about switching to something like this as I’m going through an unhealthy phase and not utilising the smart watch capability very much. However, I can’t give up the torch. I cannot believe how handy it

I watched a video on how they made the mandalorian today and Hollywood is basically moving away from green screens towards gigantic curved lcd screens which have scenes created in a 3d games engine. It produces more natural lighting results

Yeah this is one of the things the UK actually gets right. If you end up overpaying for the year it ends up getting sent back to you automatically as a cheque or bank transfer about 6 months after the end of the tax year. Some people aren’t

It kind of makes sense for Italy and possibly France to ban it in terms of the culture of those countries which have always stuck two fingers up at what everyone else is doing in favour of their own approach to life. I’m quite surprised Ire

I went and checked out Vox Machine because of your comments and absolutely loved it, binged it all in about 3 days and now I'm watching the Critical Role Vox Machina campaign from the beginning on YouTube. Thanks!

I’ve also heard this and agree it’s highly likely. I think I heard it via an interview with Julia Louis-Dreyfus who comes from a billionaire family so probably a credible source.

Calling bullshit on this. Musk reckons it’s Putin and I’ve read that some people think it’s possibly one of the Saudis but at the end of the day these billionaires have got that many assets hidden all over the place no one has any true idea
