Still enjoying developer life at #TelstraPurple (12 years! this week), I've just moved to the #IoT Portfolio. Will be posting about some of the great things they are involved with, like https://airspeeder.com/
In #database delivery hell? I just finished reading Alex Yates' #DevSecOps posts on safe schema updates. https://octopus.com/blog/safe-schema-updates-1-delivery-hell
@kpeace "sucking up money" makes no sense. When the Fed creates money by printing notes or issuing bonds in return for a bank balance, and then gives that to so someone to pay for something. Then if they trade that bank balance to you in return for crypto, then money doesn't disappear, it just changes which bank account it is in.
@mhoye if you don't like local chromium features, don't turn them on (most people won't be running enterprise domain policies), or fork the open source. Also research the issue, it was fixing a small bug in a 3 year old feature.

A job position for web devloper is open on my team at the British Film Institute. Drupal 9 and NodeJS. I would love to find someone who isn't a cis white man to come and work with us! https://bfijobsandopportunities.bfi.org.uk/tlive_webrecruitment/wrd/run/ETREC107GF.open?VACANCY_ID=3708122qWO&WVID=384536015T
@kojote@mastodon.bayern we occasionally drink a little during my Strahd game (usually something red coloured).
When I was much younger at uni, we used to regularly play in the uni bar.
There are even games like Tales From The Floating Vagabond that describe themselves as a beer & pretzels game.

@anarchotaoist I presume they mean a PCR based test (which is one of the uses of PCR), and are using shorthand because they aren't medically trained to know exactly what PCR is, only that it was somehow involved.
@anarchotaoist sensational headline, because statistics can be misleading.
If 100% of people were vaccinated, then 100% of "those dying" would be vaccinated.
You need to look at the conditional probabilities (or relative rates).

If you're on a big instance with lots of members, you might want to consider moving to a smaller instance.
Smaller instances can give members personal attention, as the admin has more time to deal with messages and feedback. They also tend to have more interesting local timelines if you pick an instance that matches a favourite topic.
Using smaller instances also protects the Fediverse from nasty people or companies, because a spread-out Fediverse is much harder to hack or buy.
