Actually, its only a Portillo Moment if it comes from the Portilleux region in France otherwise its just sparkling seat loss
Having Kwarteng and Dorries on the C4 panel is like having a true crime podcast presented by the actual fucking murderers

"It will included Muslim candidates from Western Sydney, it will be a disaster". As a Muslim who grew up in Western Sydney I find this comment from someone who is running for PM an absolute disgrace. Bigotry at its finest. Fueling Islamophobia from the very top.
Peter Dutton predicts that if the government is returned it will be in minority and "will include the Greens, it'll include green teals, it'll include Muslim candidates from western Sydney, it will be a disaster." #auspol

Grr. It's SOAP all over again. I sort of get the rationale, but this basically kills a lot of default cache controls.

When setting gRPC error codes, do the equivalent status codes get set in the HTTP headers? I know there is a conceptual mapping between the two (e.g. chromium.googlesource.com/ex…), but not sure if that means a gRPC server will actually set those codes in HTTP itself

I don't know why anybody finds this surprising or remarkable. My local doughnut café doesn't do metal fabrication and other light engineering works either.
Oil & gas producers account for only 1% of total clean energy investment globally (& >60% of this from just four companies). For the moment the oil & gas industry as a whole is a marginal force in the world’s transition to a clean energy system. iea.org/reports/the-oil-and-…

Based on the revelations this week, this is not an event I want to be associated with.

I will not be speaking at DevTernity on 7th of December as previously planned. Unfortunately it turns out aspects of the conference were misrepresented to me.

It’s India vs Australia in the World Cup, and yet there are loads of empty seats. What gives? I sort of get it for the games when India isn’t playing (although I think that’s not great), but I assumed the stadium would be rammed… #INDvAUS
