@hikeabruzzo unless things have changed recently, England doesn’t have a right to roam, only rights of way (and there have been attempts to curtail that), whereas Scotland does. Sweden certainly did when I was there. @NickEast_IndieWriter @outdoor @nature@fedigroups.social @photography@fedigroups.social @photography@lemmy.world @Nature@lemmy.world @hiking@lemmy.world @hiking@fedigroups.social

@mhoye@cosocial.ca Tony Hoare called this “the sword of Damocles method of ensuring programme correctness” and cited an example of a team of programmers who had to calculate strengths of the chains used to slow a ship during a (sideways) launch. The team knew that they would be in a stand on the other side of the river, so would drown if the ship went in too fast.

@Gaolaitch@cupoftea.social pissing?

@Gaolaitch@cupoftea.social I had the idea that pleasant might mean amusing. Not sure that the OED would support that, though.

@jim_easterbrook@mstdn.social Any idea what he was describing?

@turi@social.vivaldi.net where did you sell it?

@turi@social.vivaldi.net Thanks. No, I’m just looking for ideas of what to do with mine. So you just advertised it on ebay and someone bought it?
