@fesshole isn’t it more accurate to say “he’s back working there after a period as [FOR LEGAL REASONS ONE OF THE GREAT OFFICES OF STATE HAS BEEN CENSORED FROM THIS TOOT]”

@anon_opin the opening number is a rousing Busby Berkeley-style number called “Hurrah For The Blackshirts!” although of course all the scarves, shoes, skirts and umbrellas are black. But none of the cast.

@anon_opin if Gen X’s experience is anything to go by, no they won’t.

@anon_opin that’s important, but, counterpoint, is it MORE important than the CPO getting a nice case study to bolster his LinkedIn profile? Checkmate.

@cstross @MarcAbrahams this implies that there is in theory a method to translate from wombat poos to herring farts http://news.bbc.co.uk/cbbcnews/hi/animals/newsid_3244000/3244993.stm

@cstross @baldur whenever I work with a new CS grad I make sure to mention THERAC-25. And if they have no idea what I’m talking about, I know that their real education is about to begin.

@anon_opin let’s remember that the ultimate extractor of labour value is Emily, who has sealed her workers into a company town. Let’s not misdirect our collective anger because Bagpuss is forced to act in a coordinating role as a means of survival for himself and his comrades.

@anon_opin shaking is about mixing, dilution and chilling and if you don’t know the second two bits maybe you should sit down and enjoy the professionals doing their jobs properlyEdit - also aeration if the cocktail has foam

@anon_opin nuance? An understanding of sarcasm? Not jumping instantly to the judgiest possible interpretation? An anon opin commenter cares not for these things!

If you think AI will soon be able to do my job, that’s because you don’t understand my job well enough to know the difference between good outputs and bad outputs. And if you think AI will soon be able to do YOUR job, then buddy I have tragic news for you.

@cstross it’s interesting that although the incident aircraft was Line no 26, and therefore not one of the “terrible teen” 787s that required structural reinforcement and took years to sell, Simple Flying says “However, it’s also worth noting that some 787s sold off after the terrible teens are still considered heavier than the latest Dreamliners being produced. This includes a number of 787-8s flying for Air India.” https://simpleflying.com/terrible-teens-boeing-787sl/Another undercooked Boeing?

@fesshole when I lived in Hackney I once opened the front door to go to work to find an unhoused gentleman rummaging in my recycling to find bottles to throw at another unhoused gentleman across the street. When I asked wtf he was doing, he said “nah, it’s alright mate” and kept throwing.

@fesshole nah, a lot of companies just tunnel all traffic through endpoint security like Netskope that acts like a VPN.

@anon_opin if you ever feel like your job is pointless remember there was some engineer at Audi who worked overtime to make the indicators animate
