@HappySinger Oh we’re only three days in and it’s already falling apart like a thing that would fall apart easily in some simile or other.
Well played Ablo. https://t.co/TcxgCvMOnc
Great tongue work though. https://t.co/4QYH05NQc8
@HappySinger I know what you’re saying. But we need to work towards these things in gentle stages.
For those who remember “The Code†series 1… #thecode https://t.co/7dXesH7ZME
@HappySinger Of the Qld LNP, not of the Coalition. The parties all have separate Whips.
The pleuting has finally begun.
@ChipRolley Thanks. It was fun, and yeah I’ll admit there were a couple bits tonight where I thought, “Yeah, I fixed that bit.”
@CosmicRami Heh. And my view at the time would’ve been something like thispic.twitter.com/VIj2C8sHP4P4
@_tan_ Oh God no, don’t watch it for me. Watch it for Shelley Birse’s plot lines, the direction, acting, editing etc.
@ChipRolley Thanks, Chip, but my role was tiny. Merely helping to polish the devious ideas from Shelley Birse’s mind.
@CosmicRami Was it that? The timelines are a little confused in my head. But yeah that wine was outrageously overpriced.
@katinamichael @nottheword There is that.
@_midofo_ Enjoy.
@nottheword @katinamichael How were their attitudes to immortality?
@_midofo_ Oh, yeah, I was indeed flagging this as a SEKRIT project until there were some formal announcements.
@nottheword @katinamichael Sure, but then Kurzweil is also basically insane.
@katinamichael @DavidVaile That was fun, yes, but sadly I can’t be a#FODIDI this year. Too much happening elsewhere in my life.
@stancorrey Maybe not the ABC, but so many podcasts need their audio quality sorted out.
@CosmicRami Speling is fian.
@CosmicRami It was odd seeing it on screen tonight. My last involvement was 13 months ago, but what I saw was a world I’d been deep into.
@declanmurphy My pleasure. Though I only read the executive summary. I already knew Tiger was a disaster area.
I guess one good thing to come out of tonight is my first IMDB credit, when it gets posted, for “The Code†seriespic.twitter.com/kGom8V1eZf1eZf
@samhighley You’d help with the process of “budget repair†if you did.
@abaranov Stop that.
You may want to change “Aust National Audio Office” to “Aust National Audit Office”, but it’s still ANAO.
@declanmurphy Sorry, can you speak up?
@nottheword @katinamichael Aren’t you the happy one.
Note to self: You’re reading ANAO reports after 2200 on a Thursday night. You need a fuckin’ life, matey.
The Aust National Audio Office (ANAO) report on the Tiger helicopter isn’t happy reading. https://t.co/czH2dw6lLx https://t.co/wtxqLjtGO1

@robcorr It says a lot that I had to look up who that is.
@robcorr Interestingly enough, I just watched the @abciview extra on post-production, and the editor made that point. Well, “intelligentâ€.
@robcorr Glad you’re enjoying it.
If you just missed “The Code†series 2 episode 1, it’s just gone @abciviewciview along with some background ex#thecodehecode
@ResignInShame Oh, um yeah. “Technology Consultantâ€, I think I was credited as.
@robcorr Yeah, I remember that being a long conversation. But hey, it’s a drama not a documentary, and I was a mere underling.
@ResignInShame I think so. I mean, I’m too close to it now. But I’m certainly happy with how that went.
Looking at the tweets so far, it looks like series 2 of “The Code†is going to work. Wh#thecodecode
@voltagex I see that undacounta.com is registered to the production company, as it should be.
Well that worked. #thecode

Hurrah! Sgt Torvalds is on this operation! #thecode
Good to see that Cypedia is still operating. #thecode
@voltagex Ah no. undacounta.com
@voltagex Hmmm… That should have been caught by legal.
@voltagex Heh. It’s a subtle process. Meanwhile, I’m enjoying seeing the scripts come to life.
@voltagex Hey, I just read scripts and went to a few meetings. :) Mind you, I did suggest that defusing of the “dark web” mention.
Yeah so it kicks off in a happy mood… #thecode

@archoo The last script meeting I was at was July, with one more draft before director and cast started working on it.
@archoo I’ve just re-watched it all today, and yeah, it’s still pretty powerful after quite a few viewings.
@SallyRMelb I think you’ll do OK. Core characters pick up six months after the end of S01, but it’s a new story.
@archoo It’s a sublime choice.
RT @Jeff_Sparrow: If Dutton were any dumber he’d need to be watered once a week.
@incorrect And in an ideal scenario, all three at once.
I’m interested to see how ideas discussed more than a year ago stand up today. Many cyber things have happened.
Just 90 min until “The Code†S02 starts on @ABCTV & @abciview, and I’ve got one episode of S01 to re-watch. #thecode https://t.co/p5pid9jXo1
All that bending and reaching to get the fire started was a mistake. #ouch

@dwire I’m now thinking a one-size-fits-all is going to be tricky. Some want a simple call-to-action. Others more what-is-going-on detail.
@dwire Fair point. “Security†might be read as “This is scary†rather than “This is something you need to doâ€.
@dwire I was just indicating (poorly) a “Yep, add that to my list of bad decisions.†My (alleged) sense of humour is an acquired taste.
@dwire If you saw sarcasm in my tweet, which I now realise you may have… well no. That was just indicating a “Yep, sure.”
@dwire Ah. I’m not going to defend that strongly, as I say. The specific wording isn’t central to my point. Being more direct and honest is.
@dwire “Clickbait� The headline is my sincerely-held belief, which I then argue. There’s no bait-and-switch there whatsoever.
@PollHereford @James_Jeffrey Any recommendations?
