Nice crystal ball you have there. There's a lot of resistance to this because people can see this is the big pill they want you to swallow. Then smaller ones can follow. You might need digital ID recorded to buy a house. Then a car. Th

You are correct. The Identity Cards Act of 2006 was brought in by Blair’s Labour Government under the guise of preventing terrorism, the hot topic at the time. It was repealed by the incoming Tory/Liberal coalition under the Identity

If you have no use for the features, then the MacOS terminal will do fine. https://iterm2.com/features.html If you spend a significant time in the terminal, those are very nice.

Amazing terminal, it has served me so well over the years. I wouldn’t consider anything else. If you lean in to the advanced features, there’s nothing to touch it. Can’t believe it’s free, but I am very grateful for the fact. Thanks, Geor

I can add to this. About a month ago, a friend had abdominal pains but was reluctant to go to A&E (Emergency Room). I had my suspicions, but checked them with ChatGPT. The LLM said it was highly likely to be appendicitis, and that he sh

Sounds about right. I was a massive Spotify fan when I signed up in 2008, but that has cooled significantly as time has gone on. It’s a textbook Feature Factory [1]. I don’t think anybody asked for all the features they have crammed in, ri

If you use paid S3 as the storage layer, then you want to control size. With the self hosted official registry, the stop-GC-restart process is a PITA.

Sounds great… I’m a hobbyist audio engineer so can’t resist tinkering. My mic input goes to Rogue Amoeba’s Audio Hijack which allows a chain of VST plugins to be used. I use a gentle noise gate, followed by Supertone Clear. This is excelle

I use Zoom rather than Teams, but have no problems playing background music with Spotify. Just have to make sure that “share computer audio” is not enabled when sharing your screen. Also, when I was using the mic of my bluetooth headphones,

I’m feeling benefits from just doing 10K steps a day. And that involves putting in earbuds, listening to podcasts or an audiobook, and just wandering around the house. I try to walk after my meals to help digestion. It’s no burden if you’re

I’m reaching the same conclusion… I have been subscribing to LLMs for a couple of years, and trying to find the right balance and workflow that gets the best out of human and machine. I now think TDD can play a big part. I don’t have much o

So the UK (pop 69M) has had net migration figures of 760K, 860K, and 430K over the last three years. UK finances have wafer-thin fiscal headroom. A significant chunk of monthly borrowing is spent on interest payments. There is no surplus fo

It sounds to me like the lack of timing variation and note dynamics make it sound robotic. Added to this, I think the faster you go, the more it sounds like MIDI anyway. Here’s a human demonstrating that : https://youtube.com&#x2

The scenario I was responding to is where developers are no longer employed because the managers interface directly with AI. It sounds like your company still has developers around. If your company removes all developers and lets the manage

Voting British is genuinely awful. This is another draconian powergrab designed by a Tory government and supported by a Labour government. The Uniparty is real. The control freak technocrats are cut from the same cloth.

How, exactly? If a production showstopper needs to be worked on immediately. If the development is between non-technical management and some AI tool they have been using, how do they insulate themselves from being accountable to their super
