Yes. I have worked for several telcos - I understand how it works.
I just wish STIR/SHAKEN would be rolled out.

But, according to Ofcom's big spreadsheet - that's an unallocated block!
https://www.ofcom.org.uk/phones-telecoms-and-internet/information-for-industry/numbering/numbering-dataI really wish UK MNOs would take spam calls seriously. Although I suspect it's one of the few sources of voice revenue they get!

After a journalist wrote up an article about my comedy panel show gender splits last week, I'm now getting other journalists asking me questions.@slowe brilliant data gathering!
Fascinating to see how Just a Minute has changed over the years. -
What changes do you want to see in the #web over the next decade?@capjamesg turn it off and on again. See if that fixes things.
Less glibly. I wish that standards makers would be more user focused - both in terms of how developers can use new features and how end-users will react to them.

I've been reading a lot about alternate reality games in academic books recently, and they keep making basic mistakes.@adrianhon please can I ask you a newbie question about ARGs?
How do designers (and players) deal with FOMO?
I did look at the Disney Star Wars thing but, aside from price, I just couldn't cope with the idea that I'd play it "wrong".
I've been to a few immersive theatre things and there's always an undercurrent of "I'm not getting the optimal view of the story".
I think it is a bit similar to VR videos - if you look in the wrong direction, you miss out.Is that something designers acknowledge?

Here's a fun little security bug caused by... DARK MODE!Here's a fun little security bug caused by... DARK MODE!
When you try to verify your identity on @element it asks you whether the image you see on the web is the same as the image you see on the app.
But if you have dark mode enabled on the web, they look different.

So far I'm in a couple of WhatsApp groups, a Signal group, following the hashtag on Mastodon, and attempting to get Matrix on my phone.
What's your preferred way of chatting with your fellow campers?

I saw a prominent AI proponent asking why people always focus on the things that AI gets wrong. AI works so well, he asserted, that it was churlish and childish to focus on a few minor mistakes? Which reminds me of an experience I had a few years ago. I was in a rural pub [β¦]

Hello lovely new followers!@maarakan No. I don't work with the Twitter API any more.
Someone did take over the running of the site, but then they stopped.
I don't know why it still lists me as the maintainer.
It is all open source if you want to update it.

Building a physical tag!@JackEric strictly limited run, I'm afraid.
I hate having to deal with physical stock, postage, returns, etc.
If someone wants a big enough bulk order, I suppose I could do some more.

Looks like there isn't much schedule overlap in what I want to see.
