This is clever - a dynamo battery which works on London's locked & docked publics bikes.

(Yes, yes, obviously the *real* solution to homelessness is structural. But I think this is a nifty way to look askew at urban infrastructure.)

"If we tax the rich they will just leave."
So?
Let them leave.
Pretty much anywhere they go they'll need to pay taxes.
They can't take the land, houses, resources, or infrastructure they're hoarding.
They're not doing us a favour, Trickle down is a lie.
If they're only staying as long as they can avoid contributing their fair share, why would we want them here anyway?
Either they contribute to the society that benefits them or they leave and free up their stash.
Bye bye. We can do better.
@blacklight engineering, developing are not the same as coding, and they hitup coders?

Repeat.
Someone making public social media posts is not creating a permission for the state to record and profile them for political opinions.
Also: if they (the government) can they will try it on.

Britain’s barmy surveillance state expands all the time. Now it’s Department for Education caught spying and keeping records on educational experts. The purpose, to control and cancel those whose views don’t align. https://www.theguardian.com/education/2023/sep/30/it-felt-like-a-dictatorship-uk-teaching-experts-hit-out-at-government-bid-to-cancel-them #surveillance #education #bigbrother

Today in UK politics: a man who travels by helicopter tells people who can't afford bus fares that he will save them from being able to walk to the shops.
Entirely serious country.

@Edent @darkling there's a bunch of editors for #OpenStreetMap, depending on your device preferences: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Editors
I enjoy #StreetComplete for gamification and #EveryDoor for quick, no-nonsense edits.

I've got no clue who actually started doing that in my household, but using old toilet paper rolls to prevent cables from entangling inside the storage boxes is actually a brilliant idea! 💡#organisation #storage #cables #recycling
@neil it depends.
Read soon? Tab
Read later? Email to self, plus addressing it so filters to a 'read me' IMAP folder. Also applies to books to buy.

Thunderbirds Are Go!
Filmed in VIDECOLOR and SUPERMARIONATION.
Gerry & Sylvia Anderson's Thunderbirds started 58 years ago today on ITV.
@freemo is this the new "will it blend"?
@neil Sun 7 USB. Extra keys super handy.

@mobiuscog a few years is at least one Moore's Law increase if you got a hardware refresh, might be better now. I can remember VMWare thrashing my spinning rust to death, but SSD (etc) mitigated that, for instance. Docker seems to be CPU limited unless it's building.
@mobiuscog IDK what you are running, oc, but certainly I'm not sure I'd notice the few percent overhead...
Always fun to hear from a bank how to cheat at something...
Even for personal accounts, consider multi account - never use root account directly, and never issue API keys from it. Just use for budget.
Service control policy - just block the ec2 instance types XXL...
Budget alerts
@mobiuscog run VM full screen at login. Done.
Language helps future you understand, as well as team
Boxes on a diagram never the issue. It's the lines.
Serverless is simpler application code, but more integration
Reusable patterns explain your intent.
One level up from normal flow diagram - generic terms like aggregate, change data capture rather than specific technology like SQS
Help choose between competing AWS products eg Eventbridge vs SQS vs SNS
Then use same high level terms in code
Everyone loves Lego ...
Change is constant. Compose events to make a service.
Need diverse engineering skills, as things like observability and queue dynamics as important business logic
Serverless first is not serverless-must - end to end cost efficient and effective enough at that cost
See your vendor lockin as instead a partnership with them providing training etc
Every stack should have a dashboard, for trends, not just alerts for now
Leapp looks fab way to solve the mess of managing multiple AWS credential profiles
Or managing port forwards from local through bastion to RDS or EC2 (with help from System Manager)
Plugs into LocalStack so can have a profile that runs code fully locally. That seems non-free tho
No VPN required, and free as well...
