I hate that I wrote “siting”.
The source is a Daily Mail writer siting a Channel 4 survey. So worth digging deeper, but on the face of it those are stark findings.
I guess the original research isn't released until a future event.
I get that polls should be treated as point-in-time data. But what a point in time. 😬

This was a delightful natter with @pbattisson.bsky.social. Not that it’s surprising, Paul is someone I always find things to discuss with.
Have a listen: I go on way too long about the early Trailhead days. I was a bit part player, but I got to witness a lot of that part of Salesforce history.

Watching this. Barely two weeks. And the hardcore right are already in the finding out stage of FAFO.
I wrote a thing about how there appear to be at least a few of the folks who helped sanewash Trump/Muskism who are recognizing "wait, shit is going bad" and I know it's easy to demonize those people, but we may need more people like them to stop this. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/04/f...

I moved away from LA when I was 18. I've not lived there for over 30 years, but it will always be home. The wild fires have decimated places that were integral to my growing up.

Naively I didn’t know this was a thing.
But I’m glad to know about it. And I reckon it’s come up because it’s being talked about due to the LA fires.
On balance it seems like one of the more fair things about the prison system in CA.

I am a former incarcerated firefighter. I served in a California fire camp from 2009 to 2012.
Misinformation is afire on the internet, so here are facts about the prison firefighter program, all in one place.

Blogged: No One Misses Knocker-Uppers
I was in a training last week. The discussion of job loss from AI was very sanitized. I think we need to be more frank than that.

I love the idea of a rebase. It makes total sense.
I get how it's supposed to work.
But I confess I have about a 10% success rate at rebasing.
The other 9 times I end up blasting away my old branch and recreating my changes after creating a fresh branch from main. #DevFail

I get obsessed by words.
"life"
I wrote "life".
What I meant was "work".
I really wish I'd written "work.
But it's a lesson, nevertheless. And a caution.
