Reminder that we have a feed of all the human verified accounts on Bluesky.

Thank you for checking it out! All feedback appreciated πŸ™‚

Just reposted the feed so it’s easier to find:

Yep. It does. There is a labeller, a feed and it also creates verification records for each verified human.

See @onlyhumanhub.com for links to those.

In case you missed it, I wrote up a piece on how we can get rid of bots in our social media.

a graph of year-on-year change in US tech employment

a graph of year-on-year change in US tech employment

Brutal numbers for US tech sector jobs released todayβ€”overall, employment decreased by 12k last month and is down 57k over the last year

That's now nearly as bad as the worst of the 2024 tech-cession, and significantly worse than either the 2008 or 2020 recessions

Let’s have a referendum I guess.

Using the word β€œclanker” unironically feels deeply cringe to me.

Causeway one.network One platform to plan, monitor, communicate and analyse traffic disruptions.

This is pretty cool btw one.network

But it doesn't seem to list all the closures ☹️

GenAI output discussing how to detect road closures due to football matches

GenAI output discussing how to detect road closures due to football matches

Pretty annoyed by the state of this.

It's 2026 and there is no API to get the road closures in the UK. The next best thing seems to be to look up the events for each stadium/venue/etc and deduce that roads will be closed nearby? sigh

Not yet, but I am thinking about it. Hence the question to see if others thought about similar things.

01.03.2026 22:03 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

This is true. I wonder if it would be worth exploring even stricter compiled languages for this and where the limit is.

Out of the ones I’ve used, Haskell has definitely been the most β€œcompiles? then it works” for me. I’m sure there are even more strict languages out there though.

01.03.2026 20:45 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

I’m thinking that all the language features to fight against verbosity are out the window now.

So I guess begin/end is back?
