📣We've undergone a rebrand! 📆
Our new Swiss-inspired visual identity is now live! Our Co-Founder and CEO, Adam Bird, shares the company's branding journey and what we learnt along the way in our latest blog post.

D&D Honour Among Theives is excellent - a proper fun fantasy adventure like I've not seen made in years!
D&D is present but not in an overdone, constantly winking at the audience way.
Had way more fun than I expected to, well worth a watch!
Engineers hate being wrong, but it can actually be a pretty useful tool for maintaining team harmony: adam.whittingham.dev/posts/b…
Reddit is down, so I've just finished learning 3 languages, discovering a new species of owl, and writing a book to rival Lord of the Rings.
.@marksandspencer bought @thread, an excellent way of buying clothes, and closed it... yet don't seem to have absorbed anything that made Thread so good.
The M&S site regularly fails to even function as a shop when using Firefox.
I know you can't just merge sites, but seriously.

As we wind down for the year, checking some stats from @cronofy
2,500+ merged PRs, 1,800+ production deploys 😎
Onwards and upwards in 2023! 📈🚀🌕
ALT Graphic with the text: 2,500 merged PRs and 1,800 deploys.
Today's trick or treat: Seeing an album on Spotify that I thought of as pretty new, only to see it's under the "Turning 10" category 👴
I just upgraded nokogiri on spotty train WiFi and it was painless. How far we've come! Thank you to all the maintainers who put work into open source projects like this ♥️
This reboot of "The Thick of it" is really brilliant - insane but just believable enough that you could imagine it could happen if such madcap characters really existed.

7 days since our US data center's OAuth authorization URL was flagged by @MicrosoftEdge SmartScreen for phishing.
No response at all to our dispute, no route for escalation.
Does anyone have a contact at @MSEdgeDev?
If anyone needs me in the next 3 hours, I’ll be composing and deleting angry tweets about the UK government.
Tried to drown my players in D&D:
Their carriage leaves the road; a moment of weightlessness; a crash as ice cold water starts to fill the cab.
Turn 1: Ranger casts water beathing on everyone.
Puzzle over, take your time breaking out, you've got an hour; make a sandwich.

Commit signing is great. But signing with GPG was a pain to set up.
Git added support for SSH signing a while back, a few weeks ago @github added support too: github.blog/changelog/2022-0…
That means you can script the setup! github.com/gshutler/dotfiles…

On a boat sailing up the Thames and watching flags lower to half mast as the news spreads. The end of an era.
