First real activation shortly after Tom Scott covered it...?
On Saturday 24th October, our MIST System was activated for its first real incident in the Southbound tunnel, in response to a vehicle fire. The Fixed Fire Suppression System was the first of its kind to be installed in a British tunnel, and it is a critical part of our tunnels safety. Activated via our SCADA monitoring system, the system can target three fire zones, including the affected zone plus one zone either side, to fully contain the fire until emergency services respond. While we hope it's rarely needed, Saturday's incident demonstrated exactly why this investment in safety and regular maintenance is so important. We are pleased to share that the incident was safely resolved within an hour, with no reported injuries, and attendance from the North East Ambulance Service was not required. A big thank you to our Operational Delivery team, as well as emergency services who responded quickly and professionally. #TyneTunnels #NorthEast

I’m just going to say it: The number of engineers not using AI coding is approaching zero. We are not talking about it because the public has all the nuance of a witch trial, but I assure you it’s true.

It's just occurred to me we might start seeing "claude UI" seeping into our every day apps & websites. Wonder whether UI & UX design will assimilate into some common style over the next 5/10 years...

Hearing multiple reports of drinks being spiked at the RDC RIA party leading to at least one dev being hospitalized. If you believe you may have witnessed this disgusting behavior occur I encourage you to report what you saw to DevRel so they might track down those responsible.

As a fan of Amy Pond, Indiana Jones, and Walter’s older brother from the muppets, this is a good day.

🚨RED HOT SCOOP ALERT🚨 Roblox is coming for creators’ brand integration dollars. Starting in 2027, the platform will charge creators a fee to publish experiences containing sponsor logos or brand activations β€”Β and GamesBeat has all the details. READ: gamesbeat.com/roblox-moves-t…

Incredibly damaging to the creator community. Equivalent to YouTube taking a cut of an in-video sponsor. Complete overreach.
From 2027 Roblox is going to be taking a cut from all brand integrations inside games. Currently a brand can work directly with developers, meaning developers take the full fee, from 2027 Roblox will be charging developers for having brands inside their games.

I'm sure this will mean studios have to delay hirings, or god forbid, conduct layoffs.

It was our annual Roblox Christmas Dinner, so a bunch of us met in Covent Garden for drinks and dinner! 🍻 ​It was great to be IRL with the dev community and I'm excited for our 1st formal @DevConnectUK mixer in Feb! Join discord.gg/f2Nv4HnZK for info.
