If you want a #SchoolStreet, if you want to phase out #WoodBurning, if you campaign for more #Cycling & fewer cars - drop it all now & focus on this consultation. If these targets are not strengthened, there will be no progress on anything else. bit.ly/m4lenvactwebinar
I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to get @gitlab and @EnclaveNetworks working on @digitalocean when writing this. Anyone know if you can auto-add a firewall to all new droplets? They're wide open by default. Better to open ports than close them. Any ideas @olearycrew?
Do you self-host @gitlab, and want to get secure remote access to it?
One of our contributors writes about using Enclave to get secure connectivity to GitLab without having to put it on the public Internet.

In the @OctopusEnergy Winter Workout we managed to use 20% less gas over the last few months. This not only saved us over Β£40 but avoided almost 200kg of COβ emissions. In total, over 20,000 tonnes of COβ emissions were saved.
How did you do?

The terrible situation in Ukraine is on all of our minds. In addition to providing aid and support, and imposing tougher sanctions, we need to rapidly accelerate our energy transition away from oil and gas.

My latest project involves running #Python not only in the cloud (with #Django and #PostgreSQL) but also on remote edge devices (@Raspberry_Pi). Here is a little bit of code to retrieve the Python version, platform, hardware model and OS version. #Twosday

Can anybody think of a more pointless and wasteful invention than the leaf blower? Particularly in this windy weather.
