Tactical voting only "works" if there's an actual difference in the political parties. If enough MPs (or policies) switch to the winning team just before the whistle blows then there is ***no material difference***.

Oh thanks for that predicted comment @github.com Copilot 😂 I get enough doubt about my coding abilities internally without having the averaged-jumble of humanity's programming skills judging my crimes.

Messing around with the supercomputer/HPC config this week to get NVIDIA's P2P working with some GPU nodes. - HPC coincidentally goes down. Was it me? Surely not. - Admin fixes it. - It breaks again 3 hours later 🤦 Yep! It was me! 😅 Whoops!

Turns out that if you are a nerd that lives your life with too much tech in it, your time disappears into debugging each device in turn as it breaks. My @msigaming.bsky.social X670E board just died :'(

Watching Farage get angry about private banks being able to arbitrarily choose their customers in a free market is hilarious. Thought he wanted less regulation and a smaller state? This is the result! #bbcnewsnight

It's clear the UK Labour Party slogan should be "Winning at any cost". Under Kier's leadership, they've abandoned holding any principles at all, except for any they think will be popular. #spineless

Riding on my one popular skeet. I should just quit now 😅

Robots.txt needs an update for the 2020s. Instead of just saying what content can be indexed, it should also grant rights. Like crawl my site only to provide search results not train your LLM.

Hi What's Science feed! 👋 🧪

Funny thing is, Musk would have angered less people if he'd just said that the rate limiting was a temporary thing while he "negotiates a new cloud provider deal", instead of pretending it was some grand plan to stop web scraping.

Hi @danirabaiotti.bsky.social 👋, I'd love to be added to the What's Science feed if possible. I'm a Research Software Engineer working in an Astrophysics Department at a UK University. I also research and post about Cyber Security, AI, and ethics in Data Science.

I'm finding it beautifully ironic that I found an invite code for this site on Twitter.
