Please support the Ada Lovelace Day report into workplace gender equity! A donation would be fab, but a share is just as important! Thank you!
Ada Lovelace Day is coming up again on 13 Oct and, as you know, these days it is almost entirely unfunded. I've been invited to speak at or attend a few events, all of which I've said yes to because the mission won't further itself.
I'm also still writing my report...

A second train derailment in 24 hours. It seems, not confirmed yet, that the exceptional heat is causing instability in the substrate under the rails. Will they have to shutdown the whole network, pending inspection of all track?

Stately, plump Buck Mulligan came from the stairhead, bearing a bowl of lather on which a mirror and a razor lay crossed. A yellow dressinggown, ungirdled, was sustained gently behind him by the mild morning air. He held the bowl aloft and intoned:
—Introibo ad altare Dei.

Last year, we launched Civilization VII with a vision to push the boundaries of the franchise, and to offer a fresh perspective for our players.
We’re excited to build the future of #Civ7 together. Today, we’re sharing where it’s going next.

Unconfirmed so far, so we don't know the specifics, but we must reiterate; 'observing' is not only not illegal, it's protected by the US constitution, and it's an essential part of transparency and accountability.
Initial report is that two observers got into a shoving match with eight agents, one observer was wrestled to the ground, and then an ICE agent pulled out a sidearm and shot the man on the ground five times.
