Is it just me or did #spring (when it eventually arrived) only last about two weeks before feeling like summer? Nevermind, Lanntair isn't complaining. #DogsOfMastodon #DogsOfFedi

A few more pictures of Lanntair who is turning into a fine young #dog. 10 months old already and I'm pleased to say that her training is coming along and she's a pleasure to walk. #DogsOfMastodon #DogsOfFedi
What a welcome bank holiday. A bit of a slow start with one more coffee needed to get both of us moving, then I took Lanntair for a walk to see my dad and pick up my car. Then @fierychrysanth@mastodonapp.uk and I took both dogs for a run in the woods to see the bluebells. Then pizza for tea thanks to an offer on the way home. #DogsOfMastodon
It was the first session of a new series of Lanntair's training courses today. The weather wasn't very appealing, but she was a very good girl and did really well with her field work. #DogsOfMastodon #DogsOfFedi

@pwaring@social.xk7.net @diffrentcolours@tech.lgbt see also the frequent reference to the loss of a regrettable, but relatively small area of ancient woodland. But not a mention of a similar amount of ancient woodland being earmarked to be lost to a few miles of motorway for the second Thames crossing.

@diffrentcolours@tech.lgbt @pwaring@social.xk7.net I did read what seemed a thought out argument that HS3 should go around London linking existing mainlines and the four airports around London. Linking HS1 and 2 seems an obvious win. But given the open goal of restarting international services from Ashford not being taken, I'm not holding my breath for sane rail services.

@amberfirefly@mastodon.green oof! Sympathy for a nasty injury and best wishes for a speedy recovery. I hope you manage to work what needs to be done around it without too much pain!
#ShowerThought of the day: Apart from the obvious appeal to business of doing more with fewer/cheaper staff, I suspect #AI / #VibeCoding is popular with management as it turns coding into much more of a managerial task - supervising and reviewing the process rather than doing the creation. So they¹ like it because it turns your job into a job *they* are good at.
Related, the technical people who are getting on well with such things seem to regard it as a management rather than creative process - using it for review of their code and/or giving smaller tasks as if to a junior.
¹On here, I assume any audience is mostly the coders.

@dooferlad@c.im I feel like a bad geek for just getting on with my Microsoft ergo keyboard. Naturally they don't make them any more, so I stock up whenever they come up on eBay at a reasonable price.

@pwaring@social.xk7.net There is also the obvious posibility that they are fraudulently avoiding tax.
Also I think there are still a lot of small businesses who last looked into a card machine when such things have onerous and expensive compliance requirements.
