Just wondering if Deaf people will be able to charge GP surgeries £10 when interpreters aren’t booked, and every time we get called, or sent a letter asking us to call, or when we walk to a surgery to book an appointment because the only other way is to call?

We've been puzzling while we weren't cruising this weekend. We didn't get on that well with several of the puzzles, but pleased to make it to the end!
A very long, frequently painful, weekend of puzzling for Team @RebellionAfloat, but we finally managed to finish @enigamepuzzle in 40th place, with a whole 19 minutes left before the closing stream!

[unfolding a sheet of paper and looking into your eyes] In these wedding vows, the key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.

Rather than let people's unconscious biases harm the people around you, you can "get in front of the bus" and introduce people with their seniority in their title ("Lara, a senior engineer at..") or by their accomplishments ("Olu, maintainer of that popular UI lib..")

I don't know who else needs to know this, but an INT variable has limits.. Type int, which uses 32 bits giving it a range of -2147483648 to +2147483647, inclusive.. Today's date string ["YYMMDDHHMM"] is 2201010001, which is larger than that. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Good news: We’ve flattened the curve. Bad news: It’s against the y-axis.

Many people don't know that A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens is actually based on the film The Muppets Christmas Carol staring Michael Caine and Kermit the Frog.

it is completely wild to me how many people on here are making 100% confident statements about what is made possible by web3, a thing that does not seem to actually exist and right at the same time as facebook releases an AMV about "the metaverse" and pretends it's a product

Sing like no one is listening. Dance like nobody’s watching, and code like there’s multiple instances of your application running simultaneously.
