if the discussions and calls I've been having lately are any indication, we're about to see significant renewed focus on developer communities. reality is setting in and companies are realizing AI is not a miracle; it's a tool, and tools are only valuable if and when people use them to build things

Travelling by train the other day and a woman on the platform at Highbury & Islington bowed reverentially to me. Nonplussed but wishing to be polite, I bowed reverentially back.
Reader, she was attempting to check the partially obscured arrivals board behind me.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Tarriffs are penne wise, pound foolish
The U.S. is threatening to hit Italian pasta with a punitive antidumping tariff — and one company said it would have to double its pasta prices to keep up.
Tariffs on pasta from Italy could soon soar to more than 100%
A routine Commerce Department probe into alleged “dumping” resulted in crushing 100% tariffs on Italian pasta that leave exporters shouting “Basta!”

If Labour wants an easy win, all it has to do is enforce a ban on sitting MPs having more than two jobs or hosting TV shows.
The measure would be universally popular, Farage would resign his seat immediately (he’s only in politics for the money) and Reform would promptly implode.
