@DP7478 @BuildsWeAre It was, for a long time. I did events in there every now and then. It really is a shame the way it's been left to rot

I fear Birmingham might be the last city on earth to adopt this, but @LizClement this may interest you? nation.cymru/news/cardiff-s… It's certainly something I'd love to see
@dieworkwear You can't just let me read stuff like that whilst I'm at work!
@Bubblejet @anon_opin Apart from the good people of Birmingham:Mom their accent. Gotten can get to fuck though
@jordanbhx Definitely worth making the trek to the Wulfrun every now and then. And JDs back in the day
@ChShersh @noah_vandal I'm not sure dev's even qualify as mid if they can't do sql tbh, at least if they want to do anything vaguely database related
@ChShersh Speaking as one who wasted half of yesterday chasing down a bug caused by my usage of sqlalchemy, that I simply wouldn't have had had I stuck to vanilla SQL, I'm well with you on ORMs. I swear I spend as long fighting them as I save, though EF is nicer when I'm in .Net land
@anon_opin being half the reason I bother checking here these daysAnnoyingly there's just one or two people who have yet to migrate to bluer skies.@jordanbhx and @thomasforth are most of the reason for my checking back in here periodically
@StuartHumphryes I sort of feel like @dieworkwear with his interest in Military uniforms for fashion would find this really interesting. I certainly do and I'm not really "into" either military history or fashion
@jordanbhx I really like clean kilo Bournville, get there most weeks
@theAliceRoberts You might be interested to know we actually have a rail research group at Birmingham, dedicated to answering that sort of question @bcrre. Fortunately for me my work is very much applied rather than that sort of high level policy question
@dieworkwear Are city boys gay in America? I the UK it implies working in the city of London, in finance and being outrageously wealthy. Does imply a suit though. Probably a blue one
@jordanbhx A few traffic light and junction enforcement cameras could genuinely be revenue earners for the council
@fesshole Fig Jam and Comté is absolutely a thing
@jordanbhx @alexfenlon @RichParkerLab I've often thought that Harborne, despite being remarkably posh, has very poor public transport. Sending the tram down the Harborne walkway (formerly a rail line) would massively improve options for getting to the centre, which are otherwise bike (how I did it), or sit in traffic
@Onebiskuit @_ryanruby_ As a native of Birmingham, my attempt at an Alabama accent will horrify you.
@40PercentGerman I once worked an event with pizza hut (I think) in the UK and they did similar. It felt enmourously cringe and I was glad to be seperated from them by a flight stairs and door they didn't have access to (I was doing tech, predictably)
@WoodinRivers Blue sky is starting to take off
@dieworkwear Great thread. If I may contribute a useless fact, the UKs current prime minister, Keir Starmer was named after Keir Hardie by his very political parents
