I just activated my shiny new @monzo pretty plus card. Does the new card number get pushed to vendors, or is it replaced when they try and use the old one?

My concern here is the 'proprietary algorithm' for computing the priority score. I'm not sure I'm comfortable with security scoring methodologies being treated as secrets. Leads me to wonder if they're actually good/useful/correct.
Severity scores are not enough for effective prioritization. @snyksec's new Priority Score is a comprehensive and contextual scoring system for vulnerabilities, designed to help teams quickly assess and prioritize fixes, more on this here snyk.io/blog/snyks-developer…

This is so very much how I feel too. The programs themselves really should be simple, boring pieces of code. The interesting stuff is in how to use them or how they work with other things to produce emergent capabilities.
one extremely distinctive thing about how i personally write @rustlang is that i genuinely believe that nearly every program can be simple/boring assuming you invest enough time in thinking about it upfront

Ordered my self a new name badge. Need to make sure I’m walking the walk. My pronouns are now visible for patients and staff. Hopefully making them comfortable to use their preferred pronouns.

Hey @monzo how does the new Monzo Plus relate to the Monzo Plus I've had for over a year now? Do I get any of the new features automatically or do I have to undergo some kind of switch?

I think I shall spend part of today checking over places I can affect, making an action list
I hadn't bothered reading this until now: I was in the mindset of "doesn't hurt me, I'll support people that want the change." I was wrong. Actively support these changes. tools.ietf.org/id/draft-knod…

Is it bad that I've started fantasising about @shipbreakergame getting @EliteDangerous ships for me to cut apart? Can you two do a deal?

Rustup 1.22.0 had a minor bug which prevented environment variable defined proxies from working with our reqwest download backend (default). 1.22.1 has been released to fix that. I am sorry my @rustlang chums, and I shall put my paper bag of shame on my head now.

How about just a ban on old white guys? I'd be prepared to take one for the team.
Please retweet if you think there should be a worldwide ban on trophy hunting.
