A really sad story of poor abuse management in the FreeBSD community. Open source needs to do better. http://blog.randi.io/2015/12/31/the-developer-formerly-known-as-freebsdgirl/
@lillylyle Some kind of ear / gland infection. Not life threatening but definitely painful :( Hope all is well with you!
@mrclay_org Nothing Matters When We're Dancing, from 69 Love Songs.
If I'd been in a coma for the last few years that would actually explain a great deal.
Walk-in clinic is playing some kind of terrible blandwave country cover of one of my favorite Magnetic Fields songs. Am I in a coma?
2015 has been a rollercoaster. Best wishes to all my friends near and far for a happy, successful, peaceful 2016 - and lots of fun tonight.
Trying out my health insurance for the first time. Wish me luck! #imisstheNHS
Seeing lots of beautiful photos from last night's candlelit procession in Edinburgh, and tonight's Hogmanay. Feeling a bit homesick.
@kid_OYO I certainly couldn't use a mobile device to do my job. But most people can get by with a tablet at least.
@kid_OYO Stories, photos, videos, films, personal reflection, etc etc. At the same time: broadband is mostly used for Netflix.
@kid_OYO Not sure I agree. Lots of creation happening on mobile.
I just ordered some beautiful signed @scrappapertiger prints to decorate my apartment. https://www.etsy.com/shop/scrappapertiger
@jgmac1106 Right. Giving the student control - particularly over privacy - alleviates FERPA issues. Make it their choice.
@AmyStephen What comes through in anti-immigration arguments is fear. "Culture fit" is highly subjective. I want to debate on data.
@AmyStephen I don't know what that means. Is the culture of California compatible with the culture of Nebraska?
@BenedictEvans Plastic containers of water shipped from Fiji, perhaps, which is a pretty low bar. Better than the tap? Probably not.
@AmyStephen @Foresting5 An interesting question for sure; luckily, there's data. Not destructive. http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2015/07/us-cities-immigrants-economy/398987/
@AmyStephen Ensuring rule of law is vital. Ensuring equality is vital. Some Muslims do commit crimes. So do many white Christians.
@AmyStephen And, ultimately: I don't want to live in a country governed by a regressive conservative monoculture. Proud to support change.
@AmyStephen Immigration is vital for innovation. Silicon Valley couldn't exist without it. Widening the gene pool of ideas is always good.
@AmyStephen "To rub the right's nose in it" would be a terrible reason, but he has no actual proof, and it would be a counterproductive move
@AmyStephen Interesting read. Plugging labor gaps was important; multiculturalism is something I would expect Labour to support (as do I).
@AmyStephen *Motivation* behind immigration? What's the source here?
Great climate change suggestion from my cousin Jonathan Neale. Perhaps we can use the hashtag #canwetalk? https://globalclimatejobs.wordpress.com/2015/12/30/floods-instant-tiny-climate-action/
