Ministry of Justice workers call researcher a 'bitch' in online conversation
  • This is possibly a mismanagement problem.
    "You must deliver this project in this timeframe, no matter what additional requests come through"

    So workers see these requests as an impediment to their progress.
    This doesn't excuse the staffers behavior, but I imagine they were under some sort of pressure.

  • Call to Action: Fediverse Media Server
  • I believe this article is asking for a centralized media server for his multiple Fediverse deployments.

    Say I post an image here on Lemmy, then jump on to Mastodon to toot it out to whatever followers I have there. So that exact same image is stored twice.

    I believe the ask is to build a system to store and deduplicate media posted across instances.

  • I enjoy the process too much
  • It's 100% just a cultural thing. It just didn't catch on.

    Just like how American households are much less likely to have an electric kettle then a UK household. This fact baffles British people.

  • I want to get into coffee, where do I start?
  • Yess, always love to see a fresh convert to the magic that is the Aeropress. Welcome to the club friend. My favourite thing to harp on about when anyone is getting into coffee. Try to buy from a local roaster, and buy a diverse range of coffee. I get so much joy from experiencing just how diverse coffee can be, and I feel a lot of people get locked into one blend from their local supermarket.

    Single origin is more expensive, but being able to taste the difference between a nutty smooth Brazilian coffee and a fruity fermenty Goji Natural Processed bean is wild.

  • Why software 'security debt' is becoming a serious problem for developers
  • Generally a regular issue is much less likely to get you hacked.
    Security issues often come with legal liability which is why a bad security department will act overly important and stomp around demanding changes be made right the fuck now.

    But I do get it, a good security team should be enabling their dev teams to solve issues in the least disruptive way possible, not just thrown them work and barking orders.

    In some places I have worked, the sec teans will find an issue and push PRs to fix them, explaining the security concern, and requesting only a review and merge.

  • May be using different kit? I use an Aeropress and follow a recipe of 11g grounds to 200ml water.

    I don't have a V60 (yet ;) ) and haven't read up about the ratios there.

    But it's likely to be different, as the Aeropress is an immersion brewer, while the V60 is a percolation brewer.

  • It takes like, 30 seconds to put my 11 gram dose through my grinder on a medium, filter coffee setting (25 clicks on the Comondante)
    I was worried when I started that it would be a massive hassle, but it's really not (in my opinion, experience is subjective :p)

    If you haven't found him already Mr James Hoffman on YouTube is an insanely knowledge and engaging resource on all things coffee.
    Lots of excellent watching there to help you start out on your coffee journey.

  • My guy, going from Zero to 100 so fast. Love to see it.

    Food for though on grinders: How much coffee are you going to be grinding at once? Do you need an electric grinder?
    The are very good manual grinders that will produce as good if not better results for half the price of the Ode.
    I own a C40 Mk4 Nitro Blade seen here And I absolutely love it. The ritual of cranking the beans through the grinder is kinda therapeutic for me.

    Regarding beans please do not stop at this one brand.
    For me, the magic of specialty coffee is just how different a cup of Guji Ethiopian coffee can taste from a Brazilian coffee.
    Find some local specialty roaster and start sampling the expansive world of coffee.

    Welcome to the club, it's great to have you.

  • New to specialty coffee, my setup so far

    Picked up an Aeropress and a Comandante C40.

    Also pictured is my very cheap kitchen scales, has been accurate enough to measure beans and water.

    I know Comandante are expensive, my justification was they are a very well regarded brand and I wanted something I could rely on as I played with different brewing techniques.

    Been having a great time, producing some lovely cups, and all cheaper per cup then the Nespresso I was drinking before
