FFConf remains one of my all time favourite conferences and was a wonderful experience as a speaker. They treat their speakers very well 💖 You should definitely apply.

Apparently I’ve been hanging on to these computer part boxes since 2016 “just in case”

Uncharacterically, wrote a blog post about something technical because I just spent the weekend fighting with jest and I don't want anyone else to have to do that https://localghost.dev/blog/different-ways-to-mock-third-party-integrations-in-jest/

@robb why don’t you like the phrase “yak shaving”?

We're hiring at Monzo! We've just opened a role for a senior web engineer for our Financial Crime team.

edit: to be clear that is preventing financial crime not perpetrating

I'm so tired of seeing "LFG" everywhere that I have now decided it stands for "lookin' fresh, girlies" and that makes me feel better about it

Every time I post something here that gets boosted a fair bit and the replies start coming in, I lean more towards only posting on my own website where nobody’s allowed to reply

I was going to do JS naked day but I realised my dropdown menu doesn't work without JS! I am the problem 😱

Captchas are getting really difficult and I’ve actually started failing them sometimes?? “Select the pictures of items that can be cut with a knife and scissors” and then pictures of things I can’t even make out because they’re clearly AI generated garbage

Mastodon has a far higher proportion of reply guys than Twitter ever did

My friend used an AI song generator to generate a comedy country song about crabs, which was very entertaining, but the fact that this software exists makes me deeply sad because people have truly devalued the arts far beyond anything I could ever have imagined. In the same way as they are with images, people are going to use garbage AI generated music instead of paying actual musicians

I find it endlessly frustrating that Apple's Family Sharing enforces payment from one card, regardless of whether or not you're an "adult" in the plan. All of my purchases go through my husband's card (on our joint account, at least) but it means if I need to verify the payment details on a new device, I have to wait for him to be there to do it
