Just Stop Oil protester, 78, has jail term extended after no suitable tag found
  • It's 20 more days, and on top of the rest of the context here it is a bit egregious honestly! It does feel like she's been put through the ringer a bit unfairly; she was sentenced to 20 months in prison, then released as part of a curfew scheme, but then right around Christmas MoJ went back on that call and took her back to prison because they couldn't find a wrist tag that fitted her, and her ankle tag wouldn't fit properly because of a medical condition.

    Now, they're adding a further 20 days, which they've figured out because there were 20 days between her being made aware that she would be taken back to prison and her actually being back in prison -- despite her being ready to go, waiting to be rearrested.

    It seems like either malice or a massively clumsy MoJ bungle (which, when talking about somebody's liberty, isn't really an excuse)!

  • Starmer defends sandwiches as Badenoch says they are 'not real food' [yep, real headline]
  • We might be talking about different things, I realise -- when I said "the headline" and "the excerpt", I meant the title and excerpt of the post, which says "PM says they are a British institution" (in the excerpt), and "Starmer defends sandwiches" (in the title). Sorry, I could've been clearer on that!

  • Avoiding tunnel vision when debugging

    Hey guys! Sorry if this isn't the best place for this but I couldn't really find anywhere else.

    I've been working for 6/7 years as a web developer full-time now, and I'm still plagued by one mega frustrating habit. When I'm working on something complex on one page, and it gets completed, I'll fairly often get notified either by the client or my boss a day or two later while they're testing the whole site that there's something broken on another page.

    Almost always, it'll be down to the fix I've recently made.

    Is there a way to avoid this kind of tunnel vision? I try to keep my code localised as much as possible, avoiding interacting with global scope and, if it's really for one specific thing, tying it down to that page in particular, but short of testing the entire site every time I make any change... is there anything else I can do?

    Thanks!
