Just in case Kevlin Henney needs any fresh Kevlins for his DDD South West talk tomorrow, here’s a few I found in the wild recently. The JavaScript error on the grocery store checkout terminal is particularly nice, as is the 6’ tall Blue Screen of Death spotted on the Elizabeth line.

Wow.

I quite enjoyed Rebel Moon part 1. I have been looking forward to part 2. I just started watching it… and the opening voiceover/recap not only made me utterly disinclined to watch the rest of Part 2, it made me realise Part 1 was probably a huge pile of bollocks after all.

It's Thursday! Join me and Mark Rendle 🇺🇦 live on YouTube at 4pm where we're talking about the Ballmer peak, tabs, Voyager 1, and sharks with laser beams attached to their heads except the sharks are robot dogs, and the laser beams are flamethrowers. Really.

Following the success of the Cybertruck, Tesla has unveiled their prototype Formula 1 car.

In this week’s video I’m talking why emoji are more complicated than you might think - from a Japanese predecessor to modern smartphones, via Unicode tricks like combining characters and zero-width joiners, to the weird world of flag emoji.

In other words, this is the second time in ten years the Conservative Party has seriously undermined our country in an attempt to cling onto the racist vote.

They need to be not just removed from power but ERADICATED from the political process

... and if you do, you'll be *perfectly* dressed for Hanno Embregts 🎤🎸 and my rockstar talk at DevoxxUK 🇬🇧 8-10 May 2024.

All the best-dressed audiences are wearing one.

Reasons to love Whitechapel station:

1. The ceiling panels on the escalator down to the Elizabeth Line are the Most Star Trek Thing Ever.

2. It’s where the Underground goes OVER the Overground.

3. If you remove the first and last letters of WHITECHAPEL you get HI TECH APE.

You know what you should do? You should order a Code with Rockstar T-shirt. Just think how AWESOME that would be.
