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

More interesting than the first thing my mind always jumps to which is Lexical-Functional Grammar

beyond thrilled to be speaking at The 11ty International Symposium on Making Websites Real Good tomorrow on the IndieWeb and how to take your posting back from third-party services using POSSE and open standards :)

(this is my first talk at a real conference, I'm shaking like a leaf bro)

@henry so excited to see this!

@henry my biggest tips for public speaking: everyone in the audience (digital or otherwise) is rooting for you, and if you make a mistake nobody will know what you meant to do in the first place so just style it out

sigh I have an American client who is having trouble, they say, being able to convert to £ (their end) for paying me. I have business bank account for my LTD that only accepts £ or €, apparently.

Anyone know of a way around this? A service either they or I could use? I would really prefer not to change bank accounts. Wish I'd know Starling was this limited at the outset.

@jessie @tef working on a project that used this I had to look up nearly everything to figure out how to do things that I’d be able to just write quickly in CSS.

First we've got @sophie talking about something we know all too well at the BBC: technical migrations.

As we all know, migrations are a complicated business.
