I'm happy to announce that I'm going to be performing my talk "Falling down holes for beginners - Getting started in open source" at @DDDEastAnglia on the 21st September. I look forward to seeing everyone there and trying to convince people that anyone can do open source!

Huge leak from an insider @Wizards
It's what we feared: the higher ups despise us, the D&D community, and see us only as an "obstacle to their money".
Subs on D&D Beyond are all WotC care about, so I've cancelled mine. Let your voice be heard #opendnd #StopTheSub

Hmmm. I just had a bizarre experience, involving a global news organisation and a trillion dollar corporation. (I got caught in the middle, so... owch.)
It’s not the sort of experience the people involved usually talk about in public… so I think I’ll talk about it in public.

👑 The King has rejected the idea of a cut-price coronation.
The event will be a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle of “glorious” pomp and pageantry after Buckingham Palace telegraph.co.uk/royal-family…

I just checked with the other hip social media platform, called the European Union, and looks like their TOS override Twitter's TOS. 😈

I guess they were banned for revealing the location of where all the Twitter users are going.

government drops billions on subsidies for its mates in the oil and gas industry, same to all their little mates for sketchy PPE deals etc. if it wanted to, it could pay public sector staff a fair wage. never forget that.

Rishi Sunak is the UK’s richest prime minister (he sits on twice as much wealth as the fucking king…)
and he is telling working people they should be satisfied with their low & unfair pay

Did you know? You can just put a "Do #AdventOfCode" ticket right into your sprint! If anyone asks who approved it, tell them it was me. ❤️
If that doesn't work, just rename it to something like "leverage enrichment synergies for improved engineering efficiency" or something. 📈

I can remember "no where are you REALLY from" being the butt of jokes as an obviously racist thing to say back in the 80s.
So I'm not sure "oh that poor old dear, she's only had half her life to come to terms with modern racial etiquette" quite cuts it tbh.
