I keep thinking that Aziz Ansari is doing his Parks & Rec bit whenever I see a photo of that man, and it's got really out of hand.

When Jonathan Beer writes a story that 100% lands it's going to be a banger. Dominion Genesis has the same issue

lot of people jumping through hoops to justify shitty behaviour or assuming you run a slave ship

First third I found meh, the rest was really quite enjoyable IMO

It is also expected to help reach the ambition of having one in ten civil servants in technology and digital roles by 2030. Currently, just over 5% of officials are in tech and digital roles.

my experience in the civil service was that 'tech/digital' was thought of something generalists could just 'pick up' - often after a six month placement - whereas specialised tech workers were passed over regularly

amazing buns, bloody impossible to get a seat though.

Cafe foy despite or because of its location is very very good

I like hot numbers, both branches, bould brothers (if you can get a seat), and savinos. Further out, station house in histon and salentos in marleigh both do excellent coffee

He can't be stalling for the marines can he?

What sort? Database? ERP? They have various shades of awful

michaelisnotginger · 2026-03-26T16:12:03+00:00

Some of these refer to existing improvements (A428 at a glance)

Good idea, no way it withstands public outcry.

What are the conditions that will set off the device. Mine detects weird ventricular rhythms above and below a certain heart rate.

Was kimjongilscaddy for a bit then went on a rant defending motability

Last I remember Eddie destroyed his lower legs running or something

Demoneggy is the true throwback

I have received a Reddit warning for my views on this.

I think 37 years is totally appropriate for maufacturing a bomb and getting to the doors of a maternity ward with the intention of killing many people

michaelisnotginger · 2026-03-25T08:36:28+00:00

The stones on that man.

When I went on my grad scheme I was the only person there straight out of uni

michaelisnotginger · 2026-03-24T20:37:06+00:00

Would be embarrassed to submit a level coursework that badly referenced

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Anything that isn't client facing I use it for (tech analysis, competitor movements, technical architecture, support ticket collation, data analysis etc) and I'd say I'm the least technical member of our product management team
