The @LeTour is the only major sporting event I follow every year. I’ve seen it live. I’ve watched it every year on @itvcycling for about 18 years. It’s part of my summer. To lose it to an exclusivity deal is disgusting. How does this grow the sport? theguardian.com/sport/2024/o…

He that shall live this day, and see old age, Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours, And say, “Tomorrow is St Crispian:” Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars, And say, “These wounds I had on Crispin’s day.” #PlaymobilInfestation #HenryV #OTD

Am I the only one who is polite when talking to AI? My logic is I’m hoping they will remember me when they take over so will spare my life…

I don't get how the people that brought you @reactjs also manage to build the ad manager for facebook and instagram and yet setting up ads (which is Facebooks business model) is so utterly broken and disjointed. How are they making money still?

So far four Brits have won Nobel Prizes this year but only one - Hassabis - is still in the UK. Something to think about when we talk about being a knowledge ‘superpower’…

Really enjoying coding for fun again. It’s Saturday morning and I’ve been up since 7:30am coding away on an idea for a tool for @Shopify theme devs that might help someone “just because” I fancied it. Thank you @cursor_ai for helping me fall back in love with hobby coding

I used to do this stuff for @umbraco many years ago and I miss the joy and dopamine hit of doing things for the fun but life and toolsets can get on the way. But no more! Pete is Happy.
