@icedquinn @strypey nice to hear it explained like that.
We find a need for a traditional voting system to fit within existing group practices.

Edzell Castle, near Edzell in Angus. The castle you see today was built from the early 1500s to replace a nearby motte built in about 1100. The remarkable walled garden was designed to provide a delightful retreat from the castle. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/edzell/edzellcastle/index.html

@Crell @laravista On the surface, maybe the other stuff sounds good, but I think it comes from some bad development experiences.
“the object-oriented approach is significantly more complex and verbose than a traditional procedural approach, resulting in more code to write and maintain. It becomes increasingly difficult to form a mental picture of all the objects and their interactions. The flow of execution is much harder to follow compared to procedural code.”
@ramsey @Crell @laravista We could disagree all we want, but that's the reality most developers face. Take on flow of execution is spot on imo.
Take a small break from the screen.

Unser selbst ernannter „Außenkanzler“ ist leider kein kosmopolitischer Mann mit Format, sondern ein provinzieller alter Grantler, der „Nähe“ mit Menschen nur über Abwertung anderer herstellen kann. So stümperhaft muss man erstmal agieren, Tage nach seinem Brasilien-Eklat.
@FediTips
Does BookWyrm allow you to enter multiple reading dates for books? Like of you read a book multiple times?
@thechrisdantes @FediTips Yes you can - the button that says 'Read', click the dropdown arrow next to it then select 'Start Reading'.
Alternatively, you can manually enter more read dates on the book page under Your Reading Activity click 'Add read dates'.
Business Insider reports that Oura is planning to expand its Oura wearable rings beyond health tracking to allow for payments, authentication, and more.
Well, Capitan Buzzkill (me) here wrote about Oura's security and privacy practices earlier this year, and found:
• Oura rings *don't* end-to-end encrypt users' health data;
• As such, Oura *can* access its users' data;
• Oura told me that the company *has* received U.S. government demands for users' data.
I've never understood the appeal of these devices - They are so expensive, yet do so little.
@alienghic Just stay warm and dry... layers, appropriate gear, etc. Looks like it will be cool but not wet. If you've got the right layers that is not a problem, I would do that. (make sure you have at least a 20 degree sleeping bag though)
@Daojoan Lovely, thanks!
@projectgus go on, drop a spanner across the bus bars

Benedict Wong as Sonoya Mizuno’s benevolent boss. Benedict Wong as Tessa Thompson’s sinister bagman. Benedict Wong and Aaron Paul as outworld drifters. Benedict Wong.
A while back I mentioned the idea of “Fedify Studio”—a web-based toolkit for #ActivityPub debugging and development. I've been quietly working on shaping that idea into something more concrete.
Nothing to announce yet, but it's looking like this might become a team effort rather than a solo project, which would be nice. We'll see how it goes.
This from Nick Heer:
"Maybe all the pain and suffering that is likely to result from the implosion of this massive sector is too obvious to mention for the MBA and finance types. I think it is worth stating, though, not least because it acknowledges other people are worth caring about at least as much as innovation and growth and all that stuff."
@Daojoan Hi I've been reading your article you're doing amazing.
ICE officers shouldn't be allowed to stick a phone in anyone's face to run face recognition without their consent. A coalition of privacy and civil rights advocates are telling DHS to end the program immediately.

The Simpsons had a surprising solution to this in their most recent episode.
Don't use your face for Face ID. Use your butt instead. The police will never guess that that's why the Face ID doesn't match.
@thomasfuchs I was guessing 65. And I was *still* too optimistic. Dang.
I had to ask my kid if it was AI.
It is pretty blurry compared to a a professional photo.
I apparently need glasses if i want to survive this AI information apocalypse.
@alienghic @georgetakei Isn't this a modified version of the original photo where they were all eating McDonalds?
@Flipboard you should add @kimzetter and @briankrebs too
the proton fail app has become just unbearably slow upon every network call since approximately last update (seems more likely to be backend though). very special boys who are too busy breaking things to move fast
