- Obvs not an exact science, but slowing down climate change *could* cost about ⅐ of Apple’s market value. https://t.co/0GNclfEdmm
- What a superbly written article by @helenlewis. Very glad I got an Atlantic subscription, a mixture of on-topic, long read, exploratory articles without being lecturing and above all interesting. https://t.co/G1uMLMtACK

- Reminds me of Fuzzies roast dinner in a bap. Which was actually rather damn good. Seems like the same approach here, crazy or genius? Or both? https://t.co/qWWqjSLfRs
- A really great list of positive actions to take when building inclusive digital products: https://t.co/co0G4Eb014 #a11y
- Not sure how I feel about Epic Vs Apple. Sure Apple and Google certainly have a monopoly (gifted to them my Microsoft, Blackberry, Nokia). And that needs to be addressed, but direct payment from an app? Phishy. But maybe it was just to get kicked off to open the discussion/legals
- It’s kind of wild that a head of a public org has committed to not trashing the service they run. I may take this through to my day job, ‘Madam, do not worry I shall not destroy your website, no pages will be deleted, no code removed’ https://t.co/zuTz0kQiTw
- The results saga just goes to back up @IanDunt’s brilliant assessment of the government: ‘Brutal but inept’

- Having worked in book publishing a 70/30 split for the author would have been a very very good deal. I get that Apple and Google have created walled gardens but some of the trees have done very well.
- RT @Samfr: 1) I'm going to try and do a fair and balanced summary thread on what's gone on today with A-levels. It is more complicated than…
- I found the A level grading algorithm https://t.co/sKHwWypo6j
- “Analysis also shows pupils at independent schools benefited most from algorithm” Awful, awful, awful. This algorithm needs to be published and scrutinised. https://t.co/5laZFBnwxz
- Seem to be getting lots of issues that break responsive right now. Often from 3rd party embeds. Usually just apply some css to an iframe or targeted div but for some reason it wouldn’t take. And now I’ve started to see it on other sites as well.
- Trying to install a library. Python firebase type thing. 1 dependency won’t load. GitHub issues page on dependancy full of ‘it broke’ managed to ignore dependency but no idea if the library will work I get that’s how we are able to do so much, but when it breaks it breaks good
- Gavin Williamson looks as competent as he is.
- I wonder if you could just wiki up the MDN developer resources. If there are enough active editors I don’t see why it couldn’t be maintained well. Crowd source the server costs.
- I just mate lunch that involved using 3 gas rings and now I am officially struggling. 😅

- RT @donaeldunready: Bit of a kick in the face to the Dunkirk veterans there. https://t.co/9xENfaqIBp
- Let’s all take a moment to remember that Dominic Cummings didn’t get stoped by the police once for: * Legging it out of London during lockdown to drive halfway across the country * Driving for over an hour during lockdown to test his eyesight.

- Wanted to take a time-lapse of a potential new leaf unfurling, I did NOT expect it to do a little sun dance. https://t.co/Cg9JfqoJcn
- Local Facebook group arguing about road closures that filter onto CS1. As in the cycle superhighway number one. In a pandemic. In a climate emergency.
- I have a lot of love for local newspapers, I worked at one on and off for 5 years. But, damn, the websites, cookies, notification prompt, add to home-screen, megabytes of javascript. I get the need for ads, etc, but often I just have to leave before my computer overheats.
- I do worry a tiny bit about my digital footprint/trash, a Google site I created (and never used was still active from November 2009). All those little abandoned bits and bytes. https://t.co/FQgTzw8EmT
- “There is nothing but a benefit to understanding our own privileges” https://t.co/f1gVt1KLxa
- Started to use Firebase for a project, really nice simple method for storing data, all basically JSON. Ideal for small simple data schemas

- This. You could have had (and still can) local knowledge, relationships and community impact tied with national infra (testing, devops and data through https://t.co/l9JuTswteA apis). A few PWC/Serco execs would have missed a bonus but the lifes saved... https://t.co/LKfyOpCY8E

- Bought another domain, send help.
- That person from Axios pretty much schooled the entire world on how journalists should handle Autocrats. *chefs kisses fingers*. Obvs it’s probably the last time he’s allowed near Trump but hey, it was good.
- Considering all pubs, bars and restuarants were closed the fact Diageo only saw a 4% sales drop in the UK is quite amazing. Toilet roll wasn’t the only thing we stockpiled right.

- Until you abolish something called the ‘House of Lords’ where the dress code is white silk satin ribbon ties, a fur collar, and a cape - I’m guessing it might always be seen as a tad elite and entry to it not exactly ‘for the people, no matter who is running the country
- Luckily had the foresight to get a Mr. Freeze blue flavour icepop.
- All the way through the ‘entire go to work’ but ‘don’t see your family’ approach is very confusing. I get there are different goals here, i.e protect the economy and protect life’s but they appear to clash congnitvely.
- I am at an age where I now use a shoe horn. I am also at an age where I love using a shoe horn.
- Just saw a pretty sweet meteor and was like course, 2020.
- Cycling through central London yesterday afternoon/evening it struck me just how much cycling infra has been improved since lock down. I was able to cycle almost exclusively on cycle routes to my destination 12 miles away. Many of the miles were on segregated tracks. Awesome.

- As key economic indicators go, HSBC business banking having on average 1 hour wait for even the simplest of queries might be a big one that small businesses are in trouble… or they have laid off / furloughed way too many people themselves
- Adding sparklines to my Covid tracker, what’s happening.
- Updated my Covid tracker to allow browsing by last 7 days. Seems testing data takes a few days to properly get recorded so it always seems like there are very few cases. https://t.co/AiOfuaJRMw
- My yearly tweet about HSBC business accounts not allowing you to download a full tax year’s worth of statements, you know for business tax reasons.
- CS1 cycle route must be feeling seen this morning. https://t.co/IgoSSjRhfo
- Okay this is pretty awesome. Knowing that encouraging cycling is a no brainier for health and environment is one thing. But to see it maybe actually happen is another. https://t.co/ZRzyamsDkZ
- This is such an excellent point, it’s always assumed cars should have preferential treatment over our general health / alternate transportation. I do drive from time to time but try to keep it to an absolute minimum and if it takes longer to do so, fine. https://t.co/8twavubCHi
- Uploaded my Garmin ride to Strava ~manually~ like some sort of monster.

- Such beautiful writing. Doesn’t matter who you support the beautiful game is laid bare in every article by @jonathanliew https://t.co/TWPw4IMm4W
- 68 mile ride burning a hole in my Garmin. If a ride doesn’t sync with Strava was it ridden at all? 🤔
- RT @lnr_blair: Suddenly the world makes a lot more sense.
- RT @citycyclists: So @TfL has launched an Online Cycle Skills Course. Get free 24 hour access to @SantanderCycles when you've finished them…
- Has a bit of a Geiger / Matrix vibe. Which I guess makes sense for a gaming chair. https://t.co/eQ6pFuubNv
- Moral of the story this afternoon is that if your banking security device says low battery for two months, don’t leave it for two months. As you need the security device to access the system to change your security device. This is like 2FA on a new phone.
- Why does on-hold music sound like someone is holding a phone up to an old tape player speaker? Like can’t they just pipe in semi-okay bitrate?
- Wordpress multisite is such a fantastic idea. Just in practice it lacks all the things you would want from a single install. Aggregation across sites for content and media, some sort of dashboard (front end), networked search. I could go on.

- Which Cabinet member is going to do a Prescot right now #RussiaReport
- I bet if the Oxford vaccine works out the U.K. will somehow fuck up it’s 100 million doses. Like Chris Grayling accidentally takes a 90 miillion mega dose. Or we let PWC distribute it and then find out they sold it all on eBay to the US.
- Maybe it’s just me. But feels like web development is in a marginal gains sort of phase. No big bangs just getting lots of little (important) improvements, performance, a11y, dry, vanilla, serverless, headless, ssgs.

- Had to replace my iPhone XS cover so had my phone without a cover for 12 hours. Damn it’s such a lovely piece of hardware. Is it too much to ask for something that doesn’t shatter into a million pieces? What’s the point of making such a lovely item if it has to have 3mm of case.
