This is wonderful news. The UK has officially signed up to rejoin the EU’s Erasmus+ scheme from 2027
It means students, apprentices and young people will be able to study and work across Europe 👏
Orbán was never president, even in his sycophancy, Farage can’t hide his ignorance
“Wait you mean that taking control of our borders didn’t mean stopping people with brown skin coming here and it didn’t mean letting me retire to the Costa del Sol?!”
ITS HAPPENING
17% turnout before 9am is nuts. Wonder how the next 24-240 hours will pan out.
As a fellow Hungary-based OSS dev, I for one am pleased to see politics and tech mingled in a way that’s relevant to me personally!
First peek at Svelte 5 + NativeScript 🚀
Big thanks to @paolo.ricciuti.me, @svelte.dev, @syntax.fm and @mainmatter.com
Within the EU, refunds and compensation are based on *arrival* time, not departure time
Use a11y-based locators in your E2E tests.
One thing that I feel like a lot of people are missing in the CC source map fall out:
LLMs work with words. There’s no magic.
It’s all just words.
It feels like people expect something else, some secret sauce?
By not withdrawing early he seriously hampered the Democrats’ ability to put forward a different candidate (or decide to throw the full war machinery behind Kamala). So yeah, he didn’t run, but that doesn’t mean he didn’t have an influence at all.
no, listen, look at the cabinet, this might actually, in fact, be true
Just wanted to say I watched your talk and you rocked it! Thanks!
Wonder if Simon has ever interviewed anyone? If so, I hope for their sake they didn’t get the job.
Observation: when reading English translations of a language I speak, I prefer to read bad translations, because it’s often easier to mentally “untranslate” them.
The two hardest things about programming are cache invalidation, naming things, and off by one errors.
Yes! I ranted a bit about this in a blog post, joeinn.es/blog/why-my-...
I think the “Like” button was the beginning of the end.
Just did that same transition again. EXACTLY THE SAME. Beautiful.
Look, I get it, it must suck. He had the opportunity to drive a Mercedes for a single race before they went off the boil, and he would have won by a *lot* if it hadn’t been for mistakes which were not his, but this season is his for the taking, and because of his attitude, I’m not rooting for him 😔
It has been disappointing to watch George Russell turn from exciting young talent to whinger. Today takes the biscuit, complaining about bad luck *in that Mercedes* after a strategy call *he pushed for*.

Epic Layoffs
There was an interesting line that caught my eye in the announcement today:
> games competing for time against other increasingly-engaging forms of entertainment
Will my son and daughter just flick through TikTok instead? Depressing thought.
I’m not principled enough to become a vegan over it, but I do at least think we shouldn’t be killing animals and then throwing their meat in the bin.
Similarly I try to avoid wasting food that’s hard to grow or harvest, similar reasons.
I think there’s another aspect to food waste which is respect. For example, I’m not that concerned about wasting potatoes, because not a lot of effort goes into growing or harvesting them.
I do try really hard to avoid wasting meat because ultimately an animal’s life was spent for me to eat it.
After my son has gone to bed, I sneak back out to do some more work and listen to some music. I put one headphone on, and most of the time it works fine.\
But the two-handed tapping in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f38eSaoBPbA is... wait, this is a cover?
