Time for my first beer of the year (at least as far as I can remember) - A Northern Star - A chocolate, caramel, biscuit porter by Northern Monk. Tasty!

I take it that serialising to data structure constructors wasn't possible due to privacy etc?

I am 100% on board with the idea of the 'gay bus' which has plenty of room to keep people safe.

Advantages of adding pronouns to bio: β€’ free β€’ easy β€’ normalises this for trans/nb people β€’ takes away a common attack line β€’ pisses off the kind of person who shrieks the word β€˜PENIS’ at random strangers twelve times a day Disadvantages of adding pronouns to bio: β€’ none

Could you put some horizontal links in every now and again to support things, and then knife them out afterwards? (I'm assuming you don't have a printer which has a separate support-material feeder)

When talking about our agendas for the day, I told my 5yo I was a little nervous about a meeting I have today. He said, β€œMama, I am nervous all the time. I know what to do.” So friends, here is all the advice he could fit into the drive to school:

That's gotta have contravened some usage policy rules though right? I hope they don't get slapped by Twitter for this. Frankly Twitter ought to be trawling github and gitlab from time to time and revoking any tokens they find.

If you ain't testing your code, I feel bad for you son. I got 99 problems, and tests found each one.

My "solver" starts with 'aster' but it has the advantage of a computer's speed with word elimination :D
Replying to @McJty
It's worth having a second "start" word using the other vowels and so on. octal+siren covers a lot of the common english letters, and 4/5 vowels.

Oh dear. I start with octal and then siren -- what do you start with?
