🚨 Any #AdventOfCode friends at GitHub? AoC users are getting '429 Too Many Requests' in response to the github.com/login/oauth/... request step of the OAuth flow. Last time this happened, I think someone at GitHub tweaked a rate limit in my OAuth app.

Have to admire the guts, the sheer chutzpah, of the teacher that decided to get my kid’s reception class to sing a song that repeats the phrase “funky camel” like 20 times.
If even one of them makes a mistake it’ll be like an avalanche of “fuck camel” as it spreads.

Me: “Because it’s just a sign that represents a golf course without actually being one.”

Really hard to articulate how worrying trends in UK pol are.
The worst part is this is just the prelude - desperate grasping from established parties to seize some stake in what comes next.

you can currently claim at least partial child benefits if you're earning up to 80k so that would be, in theory.......basically all parents on ILR and settled status? wtaf
Here Lam explicitly sets out her proposal - which is official Conservative Party policy - to deport long-standing legal permanent residents who have *ever* claimed any benefit, including the state pension or child benefit (even if the child is British), or who earn less than £39K.

If you see a Lime (or other hire) bike parked somewhere “bad” then it’s okay to use the basket as a bin. If enough people did that they might actually solve the “lol that’s an externality” problem.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?
