Welcome to the rest of the world. Especially the rest of the world traveling to the UK. Your own medicine tastes quite bitter, eh?

Remember everyone, the EU offered us a Europe-wide creative visa waiver during TCA negotiations, which the UK's chief negotiator Lord Frost REJECTED.

Such a good post from @NotionHQ on their Postgres migration.
* Origin of the name "shard"
* Why they chose 480 logical shards
* Migration process (double write, backfill, verify, switch)
* Migration and verification wrote by different people

After a three month hiatus, I've finally written a new blog post! It's 4000 words on... "how to solve the sudoku puzzle with programming".
Yes, really.

Unsure what you’re saying. Getting vaccinated is not the most important thing? Masks, distancing, and good ventilation don’t further drive down risk? What’s the misinformation, exactly?

Your experience as a developer doesn't matter the tiniest bit compared to the question of "can people who need help getting food access that help?"

Wanna hear something completely bananas? This is how I write my conference talks. Constantly think about them but unable to write anything down until the last minute.
And then hyperfocus kicks in and genius spills out.
I’d probably stop doing it if it didn’t work so damn well.
Oh it definitely shows up when it feels like it. Usually at the last minute, right before the deadline. And until then, I’m just waiting. Thinking about doing it without actually being able to do it.
It’s fun. Really. 🥲

Why is datatracker.ietf.org/doc/htm… not sufficient? If it isn’t, why not update that?

Da ich’s grad etliche Male korrigieren durfte: „&“ ist keine Abkürzung für das normale „und“. „&“ wird korrekt bei Firmennamen und Geschäftsbezeichnungen verwendet:
• GmbH & Co. KG ✅
• Schulze & Söhne ✅
• notfalls auf Twitter ✅
• Gesundheit & Wellness ✖️

This is very true, and funny; but also worth reading the replies which are split being Irish and German people, both going “yes, the others are weird”.

Cryptocurrency exists and thrives not just because it's an unregulated casino, but because the deep rot in our hyperfinancialized economy has alienated a generation of people who rightly seek an alternative. This is the cultural motor behind crypto and we should not ignore it.

Probably true. Still, the idea of police hand-cuffing an 8yo is utterly absurd from my (German) perspective
