The Brexit referendum was designed to halt the rise of Farage. How did that work out, Dave?

It's exhausting being on a plane piloted by demented, sociopathic 5 year olds.

Irregular reminder that I'm still looking for work of the type I'd get paid for (I can find the other type much more easily). I'm a software developer in New Zealand. There's a wide range of technology I'm happy working with but I'd probably be able to get up to speed fastest on a project using Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, React, and TypeScript.
My CV is at https://thunix.net/~jeremylist/cv.html. (pdf and odt versions available upon request)

I think part of the LLM-Hype is that we all can be managers now. Not knowing anything, not doing anything, but telling others to go and produce a result we can then happily attribute to ourselves.

You might think that Star Trek is a show about exploration, about science, about morality, about what humanity is capable of if we truly embrace the best of ourselves. That is a misconception! Star Trek is, in fact, a show about the weirdest chairs you've ever seen.

I'd forgotten that, back in 2019, I adapted the shot of 'tank man' in Tiananmen Square. It feels even more relevant now.

@anon_opin how about the estate agent has to hold it personally? it'd do away with the smug headshots currently in fashion, provide much needed employment, and the signs would be removed the minute the place was sold.

It's FRIDAY! Woo hoo!
As ever, have a good weekend if you possibly can.
The wee folk tried to learn a couple of new moves this week, but sometimes, just sometimes, I really wish I had given them knees, elbows and waists. Bendy limbs and unbendy bodies are a little restrictive 😆
@35millimetre I always used to try for ISO400 because not really a sunshine person.
(pretty much the same on digital as a default tbh).

Whoops.
This is what happens when you rely heavily on government handouts (socialism) to keep your companies afloat.

@evilstevie That would be a tattoo! (shame RedBubble doesn't do temp tattoos)
@mattround why not a T-shirt labelled

Wifeface has sent me a screenshot of a poster from Freecycle asking for an old CRT monitor and said "we could get rid of the one we have".
Firstly no, I need that one for something.
Secondly, it was me that posted that request.
