We'll need door frames covered with powerful IR emitters and ultrasound inducers so these perv-glasses will not "see" or "read" anything

Who cares? He’s a muppet and he’s not interested if there’s no money in it for him or his family.

Yes, as I told my daughter, TikTok (or any social media app for that matter) is like heroin. Better not start taking it because it’s too addictive

The first Diablo game that I will not buy :(

I've enjoyed the first 3 immensely, 4 is much less. Genre defining great games for sure!

New comment by aquir in "Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (September 2026)"

Location: Dorset, UK Remote: Yes. UK remote preferred; London hybrid 1–2 days/week is fine. Willing to relocate: No Technologies: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central / NAV, AL, C#, Azure, Azure Functions, SQL, REST/OData APIs, Git/GitHub, Azure DevOps, CI/CD, Power Platform, Docker, Python, LLMs/AI agents, MCP, Lean Résumé/CV: Available on request Email: hn@ahforgetit.com

20+ years building, fixing and modernising enterprise software, mostly around Microsoft Dynamics NAV / Business Central. I've worked across development, technical consulting, solution architecture, product and engineering leadership, including leading a ~15-person BC engineering team.

My particular niche is the ugly boundary between business systems and software architecture: deciding what should remain standard ERP behaviour, what deserves custom code, designing integration-heavy systems, untangling legacy implementations, performance work, and stopping twenty years of accumulated technical debt from being faithfully recreated in the cloud.

More recently I've been working heavily with AI-assisted engineering and exploring how LLMs, agents, formal specifications and MCP-style interfaces can change the way enterprise software is designed and maintained. I'm building projects around AI + ERP, including tooling for Business Central and a Lean-based formal model of ERP/accounting behaviour.

I'm looking for Staff/Principal/Architect-level work where deep enterprise systems knowledge is useful rather than embarrassing: Enterprise AI, applied AI for business software, ERP/platform architecture, developer tooling, or technically serious Business Central architecture.

I don't need the next job to be "a Dynamics job." In fact, the interesting problem for me is taking two decades of experience with complex, stateful, business-critical systems and applying it to what we're building next.

What a shame, I've used the Twitter/X -> RSS quite a lot to follow accounts.

Even the metalheads adored her: https://www.reddit.com/r/MetalForTheMasses/comments/1vyofwx/...

As Clarac94 said: "Her philosophy and way of being was metal af, look up her book schemes and charity work and how she stuck up for people like the gay community. She was unapologetically herself, always even when criticised or mocked. RIP Dolly!"

No vibration...what a missed opportunity! The reason that I got into smartwatches is the vibration wake-up alarm

She is one of my favourite humans. Clever, witty, funny, hot and on the top I love the (timbre of) her voice. I listen to it on the podcast that she does with Michael Steven (The Rest is Science).

Hopefully this could be the first good thing about Brexit...this might not get implemented in the UK or there will be a delay!

What's to point of all this? Everyone will use Signal or some other E2E encrypted messenger, this is just bone tossing. Useless politicans spending time on useless things.
