<p>Hello 2024, it's Tech: Off-topic here! Mike (<a href="https://twitter.com/ukmadlz" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://twitter.com/ukmadlz</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/@ukmadlz">https://mastodon.social/@ukmadlz</a>) has brought in Ollie Read (<a href="https://twitter.com/ollieread" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://twitter.com/ollieread</a> <a href="https://phpc.social/@ollieread" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://phpc.social/@ollieread</a>) to talk tech and what's happened recently. However, that barely happens and the tangents are strong. We end up talking about:</p> <ul> <li>Multitenancy in software (you can ask Ollie about that all you want)</li> <li>RGB & Camera stuff (thanks to tech difficulties)</li> <li>Gundam, Warhammer, and hobbyist "plastic crack"</li> <li>Corporations and patent fights https://news.sky.com/story/apple-watch-to-lose-feature-after-us-court-reinstates-sales-ban-over-patent-dispute-13050692</li> <li>Super rich (plenty of tech money) spending lots of money to build a city... <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/jan/17/tech-billionaire-new-city-plan-california-forever-san-francisco">https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/jan/17/tech-billionaire-new-city-plan-california-forever-san-francisco</a></li> <li>Pothole robots https://news.sky.com/story/hertfordshire-worlds-first-pothole-preventing-robot-to-hit-roads-in-test-rollout-13045036</li> </ul> <p>This episode has plenty of side quest adventures so enjoy the chaos </p> --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tech-off-topic/message

<p>Mike (<a href="https://twitter.com/ukmadlz">https://twitter.com/ukmadlz</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/@ukmadlz" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://mastodon.social/@ukmadlz</a>) and co-host Jim (<a href="https://twitter.com/secondej" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://twitter.com/secondej</a> <a href="https://phpc.social/@SecondeJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://phpc.social/@SecondeJ</a>) gather for the first time in a while and are joined by Stuart Langridge (<a href="https://twitter.com/sil" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://twitter.com/sil</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/@sil" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://mastodon.social/@sil</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuart_Langridge" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuart_Langridge</a>). The usual variety of social tech chat goes truly off the rails to the point where it's more teachable moments than tech discussion. But some of what we cover is:</p> <ul> <li>Elon is against Chat GPT 4+ <a href="https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/pause-ai-development-open-letter-warning/">https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/pause-ai-development-open-letter-warning/</a></li> <li>Don't deploy on Friday horseshit is BACK <a href="https://twitter.com/allenholub/status/1637111242610610182?t=EBkSZzQ6-zVpZ0I5lC4s4g&s=19">https://twitter.com/allenholub/status/1637111242610610182?t=EBkSZzQ6-zVpZ0I5lC4s4g&s=19</a></li> <li>Dilbert</li> <li>Twitter outage two weeks ago was because they fired everyone with access to mint certs <a href="https://izzodlaw.com/@IzzoD/110001516908481048" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://izzodlaw.com/@IzzoD/110001516908481048</a></li> <li>You can't avoid politics in tech sometimes <a href="https://twitter.com/AlyssaM_InfoSec/status/1637383087020548096?t=_HTKn9xpNxWod2xC9eOH5g&s=19">https://twitter.com/AlyssaM_InfoSec/status/1637383087020548096</a></li> </ul> <p>The topics list was a lot longer, and this is all we got to. I think we hit a new level of off-topic with this episode, so enjoy.</p> --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tech-off-topic/message
