Oscar @osc.sh · 24/01/2025Average email from HR: “Ok we’re transitioning to Salarya, but payroll is still in Bullfrog—Catch up with your training on Qualulu then send me a knob on Chapati once you’re done. Do NOT upload your melon without YAMMER! approval” 2273
Oscar @osc.sh · 21/01/2025I think the whole “Elon Nazi salute” thing boils down to an Occam’s razor situation. What is more likely? You think he’s ACTUALLY a Nazi and wilfully did a nazi salute or he’s just a bit autistic and over-excited and mis-communicated a “throwing heart out” motion? 680
Oscar @osc.sh · 21/01/2025Been getting more into mini quad FPV flying recently. Here’s a little rip around from yesterday—with a crash 040
Oscar @osc.sh · 17/01/2025The fact that Americans spell “cancelled” “canceled” still gets to me ngl 5110
Oscar @osc.sh · 16/01/2025Our key fob for the shared garage stopped working and I didn’t have a button-cell battery but I did have a lipo cell and a charging circuit… it’s at least USB-C rechargeable now! 090
Oscar @osc.sh · 15/01/2025Been enjoying IIFE (Immediately Invoked Function Expressions) a lot recently. I feel like they nicely separate pools of logic relating to specific things (parsing, transforming, slicing) and reduces the need for variable reassignment 290
Oscar @osc.sh · 14/01/2025Throwback to about a year ago doing weather station maintenance on the Antarctic plateau. It’s a very strange place because it’s totally flat and there are basically no land features for hundreds of miles. Kinda reminded me of the infinite white room from The Matrix. 2311
Oscar @osc.sh · 12/01/2025wtf is figma doing now. I want to copy TEXT from a TEXT BOX Jesus CHRIST man 6122
Oscar @osc.sh · 31/12/2024I swear the Shopify API team are on a mission to keep us devs in employment — they've been very trigger-happy with these depreciations recently 050
Oscar @osc.sh · 30/12/2024Over the past week, I have been testing this Radxa Zero 3W single board computer and it’s been great fun 2130
Oscar @osc.sh · 18/12/2024I’m usually pretty nonchalant about the incredible technology I rely on every day, but when I get a phone call in a cosy café—from an Iridium phone deep in the field on the Antarctic plateau—it always stops me in my tracks. This is so bloody cool 0272
Oscar @osc.sh · 04/12/2024How do you ask someone very politely for the 3rd+ time to approve a pull request ? 8110
Oscar @osc.sh · 01/12/2024Don’t want to brag but I’ve just had a message from Elon Musk on Bluesky 2380
Oscar @osc.sh · 30/11/2024When you ask the UK-based developer if their new feature works in different timezones 0191
Oscar @osc.sh · 29/11/2024One curse of being a GMT+0 developer is that it is not easy to see errors relating to local time zone offsets 2402
Oscar @osc.sh · 29/11/2024I’ve decided that one thing I really want to improve on in 2025 is my storytelling ability. There’s a real skill to forming a memory into words and having that play out vividly in the listener’s head in a captivating way. 4130
Oscar @osc.sh · 28/11/2024The best thing about React Native is getting everything working well on IOS and then Android just decides to shit its self with some out-the-blue java.lang.ui.bollocks exception 190
Oscar @osc.sh · 28/11/2024Open-sourcing my advanced AI text-detection algorithm if anyone is interested 2354
Oscar @osc.sh · 27/11/2024I bet the owners of the calendar shop bluesky.com are getting a ridiculous amount of traffic and they have no idea why 192
Oscar @osc.sh · 25/11/2024The best thing about Bluesky being fully OSS is that I can outright steal the wonderful things from @danabra.mov and @samuel.bsky.team's posts to make our Hertility app better 060
Oscar @osc.sh · 21/11/2024I’m following too many clever ML people on here now. Barely have any idea what anyone is on about 070
