With immediate effect, I am not posting on Twitter and encourage you to visit my personal blog at joro.dev or find me on another Web site that, you know, functions as a Web site. ¡Adiós amigos!
I’m spending less time on twitter (a) for mental health reasons and (b) because it’s about to be made unusable to fulfil a capricious billionaire’s whims. You can find me on Mastodon at @joro@octodon.social or DM me for email etc. ✌🏻

I have a guest staying with me who works at Twitter. He’s just bought a house in London. He’s in the spare room frantically trying to call the legal team with his colleagues. Told not to go in to the office today and had access suspended. #TwitterLayoffs

So @DCMS have a live youtube stream showing where the lying-in-state queue ends

Bore da o Aberystwyth! I’m at @IOSDEVUK this week - come and say hi if you see me. (Look for a man in a disgustingly loud shirt - you won’t miss me.)
All set for the iOS event of the year. Tim Apple eat your heart out. #iOSDevUK
ALT View from out of an open narrow gauge railway carriage. We can see a platform with a depot building ahead and an engineering locomotive.
The final morning of #iOSDevUK with @acbdev discussing Swift Playgrounds for side projects. What does “finished” even mean for something you’re doing in your spare time?
ALT Anna stands in front of a screen with a colourful text headline: “what does finished even mean? Getting it to a state where you say ‘ah, nice’? TestFlight? Published on the App Store? Published on the store and adding things to it?”

A talk about Basketball and Security at @IOSDEVUK? “Both are about defence and offence”, says @mvpohhhdrey #iOSDevUK – at Aberystwyth, Wales

This is a point often forgotten: free tiers aren’t just necessary for teenagers without credit cards, they’re necessary for teams in organisations with very daunting procurement processes.

blockchain people not realizing git is already decentralized is funny but also incredibly sad and an indictment of their entire movement. they don't know anything about decentralization unless it's attached to a bitcoin fork they can try to profit off of

they should delete the entire week before & after the visit - no, this isn't snark
strava has had "privacy zones" to hide home/work locations for years; for YEARS people have shown how easy it is to determine where someone was based on the trajectory to/from sensitive locations
New: @Google says it will delete location data showing users visited an abortion clinic.

Time taken for Xcode to update to 13.4 on my work machine: 16 hours (with about 8 hours of those asleep)
Lazyweb: anyone have any idea why Xcode 13.3.1 would suddenly stop automatically highlighting Markdown files? As in, I need to pick Markdown syntax colouring from the menu because the default colouring is 'none'. Bug?
