For 10 years, nobody told me that my “low data train times service” #trntxt wasn’t even returning compressed responses. I have now added `gzip on;` to the server config. Now you can enjoy even smaller responses on https://trntxt.uk

Holy shit, Carole Cadwalladr’s TED appearance is incredible. *Unbelievably* brave to stand up in person in front of the people enabling tyranny, call it out directly, and call THEM out by name. “You are not gods. You are men; and you are careless.” Phenomenal. https://youtu.be/TZOoT8AbkNE

Perhaps surprisingly, Aberdeen has been confirmed as the destination by HM Coastguard. Solong is headed there "for safe berthing". Feels like a bloody long way to go, given the number of alternatives. https://hmcoastguard.uk/news/updates-vessels-incident-coast-east-yorkshire

As for other news you might not have caught, the vessels involved were evacuated almost immediately by a mixture of pilot vessels and windfarm support vessels - essentially the first things that could get on scene. The RNLI rightly get a lot of kudos, but seafarers of all backgrounds will kick...
