I'm looking for a small group of people to partake in an early private beta of LINQPad for macOS. If you're able to spare some time over the next week or so for testing and can provide feedback from a Mac enthusiast's perspective, please contact me. PM or linqpad.net/Feedback.aspx

I've just scheduled a couple of public classes that cover pretty much the whole gamut of contemporary software development. "Stories to Code" looks at the user's story and how to start with conversations and end up with code that satisfies user needs. "Incremental Architecture" teaches how to create an adaptable and maintainable architecture that grows incrementally as you learn. holub.com/classes

“The super-rich do not spend their money on MPs out of generosity and out of the goodness of their hearts. They want something in return. This wealth is used to buy influence in this House; to get this place to serve their interests and not the interests of our constituents.”
When I was first elected, one of the things that shocked me most was the lobbying from big business and the super-rich. From gifts, dinners, donations and – we know now – texts to the Prime Minister, they do it to get the government to work for them, not for you.

You see this, this is what happens in real life. The bots can't show up on the streets. On the right there (yeah the far right) are the 6 nazis who turned up to cause mayhem. Everyone else is there to stop them. This is England.
