If this intends to make it legally compulsory for every adult in Derry to carry something called a "Brit Card", then I'm willing to offer some high-paid consultancy on why this plan might be flawed.

Just catching up on Donald #Trump's UN speech.

The Ruby community has a DHH problem tekin.co.uk/2025/09/the-...

At GOV.UK we always had a joke that it should be 1 form with an input for your national insurance number and a submit button that read "Sort everything out". I suppose this is still 1 form.

A few small changes are live at www.lineup.fun namely fixing what I call "The Duran Duran Duran problem".

The view that London is for the White English is fucking insane. Londoners drink in Irish pubs, the most popular foods are Turkish + Indian, the UK's biggest music exports are Garage and Jungle. The most popular tourist hotspots include Chinatown and Brick Lane.

Been offline for a few days in Italy and come back to weirdo racists ransacking London and some big framework melter sticking his nose in.

If you need to start your week with some high BPM energy, here's my DJ set from a friend's birthday on Saturday soundcloud.com/syntax-terro...

Look what you made me do @vole.wtf

How is Rekordbox so shit and yet the industry standard in an industry with taste.

It's been a while since I had a good weird bug to talk about, but today I figured out that BST started later in 1953. Since JavaScript has no native date type, React Native gets a Date from our backend, incorrectly turning it into 11pm the day before, and rendering the wrong date.

People from Northern Ireland listening to English flag discourse

Off to Edinburgh to laugh a lot.

A nice summer morning to be awoken by our neighbour telling her son to fuck off.

- Dates with 2 different women both ended when they threw up in The Big Chill in King's Cross. - On a date with a black woman when she stroked my beard and she called me, an Irish redhead, her little leprechaun. - A 1 night stand got cut short when the girl broke her leg on the way to her's.

I did this a while back and it's fantastic! Sam's a great teacher and this it was already cheap enough, so if you've got an interest in coding and electronic music you should buy it.

This is what they want to take from us

When I'm three paragraphs into writing a game industry article for the nyt and I haven't said that video games have come a long way since pac man

Do you live in a place that was colonised and struggle with wearing the right clothes on a hot day? Or maybe you live in the coloniser? Well now www.isitshortsweathertoday.com has location search, so you can find the right Belfast, London, or Boston for you.

As I sit here eating my breakfast pizza, I feel like it's worth reminding everyone that the right way to reheat pizza is with Chef John's method www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWIJ...

I wrote a blog post about web accessibility being woke, featuring @rich-harris.dev and some prick from Hacker News. www.tommyp.org/blog/accessi...

These Neanderthals in Humans look like the Doomguy. Maybe that’s where he came from?

Accessibility is now woke.

AI coding is very useful for writing tests while I go and make a coffee.

I'm going to a rave tonight and because of the date, the theme is "American Wrong'uns". Looking forward to seeing if someone comes dressed as a school shooting.

Is 2025 and we still have people who read "Japan has (some) good laws to protect workers" as "Iwata & Nintendo protected workers". Put Iwata in the US and shit would be very different The solution is not hoping for CEOs & billionaires with a conscience, is having laws to keep those fuckers in line

Why is Microsoft buying all of these companies and then cancelling the games! Perfect Dark looked great. I was excited for Everwild, even though I didn't know what was. If you're going to buy companies, let them make cool games instead of living in constant fear of layoffs.

I was looking at some English placenames recently and thought they all sounded made up, and thought it would be fun to make a thing that makes up English place names — so that's exactly what I did. Introducing: A place in England places.projects.alextorrance.co.uk

@cardy.bsky.social I'm sure you know most of this already but I listened to this and thought you'd really enjoy it bsky.app/profile/timh...

Referring to events in Ballymena as "disturbances" is a euphemism too far. We are witnesses to a pogrom. And it behoves us to say so, loud and clear. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...

It's summer! Which means I get to hear 2 of our neighbouring families constantly shouting at each other all day.

Watched a video of an 1/2 Italian 1/2 Jewish comedian making jokes about Isreal and now I'm getting AI generated slop adverts with Starmer and Macron crying and asking if we should give Gazans any land.

The British Army using Mario Kart to advertise military recruitment to children.

watched Clueless with my daughter yesterday, and The Matrix highway music popped into my head..

I'll add to this list - not understanding the fuss over The Late Late Toy Show.

With the move back towards blogs, my Saturday morning routine has became reading my RSS feeds with a coffee. It's quite nice to feel like I'm taking in the Internet at a slower pace, instead of an onslaught of content that passes me by moments after it's published.

Season 2 of the Playdate has some real good shit in it, like Blippo TV. I love it. play.date/games/blippo/

The sun is gloriously shining on East London so I am off to check out a photography exhibition and then a child free taproom.
