I mean I have in the past suggested that to go with Albo's Joy Division t-shirt we should get a "Too Drunk To Fuck" one for Barnaby.

North Bay Python 2026 Schedule, talks and talk submissions for North Bay Python 2026

So unless anything untoward happens I'll be on a stage in a barn in Petaluma in late April talking about errors and why they're like that.

Looking forward to @northbaypython.org!

We ditched native apps and switched to Electron because it was quicker to get a result and we didn't give a shit about the externalised costs.

This is a post about LLMs.

The voice actor in this online training course is giving incredibly @michaelhobbes.bsky.social vibes, but I don't think I've ever heard Michael discuss FIPS-140 compliance.

I love that the Anthropic CEO is taking a brave stand on the point that he's fine with ruining the livelihoods of countless workers, making the rest far more precarious, and trashing the planet but that using his stuff to kill people is TOO FAR.

And I do understand that it would be a challenge to find a bear so close to a major urban centre like San Francisco.
