I've seen a lot of people asking "why does everyone think Twitter is doomed?" As an SRE and sysadmin with 10+ years of industry experience, I wanted to write up a few scenarios that are real threats to the integrity of the bird site over the coming weeks.

Everyone on social media should know about the Illusory Truth Effect If you see something repeated enough times, it seems more true. Multiple studies show that it works on 85% of people. Worse, it still happens even if the information isn't plausible & even if you know better.

Everyone scoffs at PHP the language, but their documentation kicks everyone's ass because it's loaded with things that aren't obvious. Writers don't discover these things, folks doing the work do.

Apple really should put their docs on GitHub and let people augment the@. It is really tragic.

If only he’d adopted the same attitude to parties that he took towards COBRA meetings…

If you support the idea of an 'extended cut' of #TheBeatlesGetBack then please re-tweet to show @disney and #applecorps that there is demand from the fans!

Today is Holocaust Memorial Day. In 1938, Sir Nicholas Winton brought Jewish children from German-occupied Czechoslovakia to safety in the UK. Fifty years later, That’s Life reunited him with some of those children.

"These children would have been killed by the Nazis."

Tory MPs, enraged and on the verge of tears in Parliament, know Afghanistan is a world defining moment inews.co.uk/opinion/tory-mps…

Anger and shock from Tory MPs in Parliament showed how fundamentally the world is changing

The UK response to the Afghan crisis has been an object lesson in ineptitude, obfuscation and moral bankruptcy

Personally, I think we should spend £16.5 billion on the NHS and clap for the military.

Hey newspapers, don't all go with 'YOU'RE FIRED'. Plenty of other options: • P45 for P.45 • The Lying King • Unpresidented • Lord of the Lies • Donald Dumped • Down in the Trumps • Game over, combover • POTUS Out Of Our Misery • Orange Is The New Sacked

This photo, used for a national government campaign, was taken from unsplash - a free image website. No photographer, model, studio, retoucher, stylist or beautician was paid for this image. They chose this, rather than helping creatives. THAT is how little they value us.
