You say that like it’s an infinitely scalable proposition? It really isn’t.

I always assumed this is triggered by Bluetooth connection to the car?

I tried Hevy based on hacker news recommendations - but I feel like I want more of a steer on what activities I should be doing. Hevy just seems to give me the same set over and ov…

The exact same NS10s!

I once worked with a guy mixing TV programmes and live DVDs; I knew he’d been a studio engineer at one point in his career. We were re-arranging our studios one day and as I picked…

Bit puzzled by some of the station data. This train: https://www.map.signalbox.io/?train=202607066710114&location... is a train from Cambridge to Kings Cross - and in the side pane…

Quite. Or differences in the box-model, appending weird symbols to CSS to target specific browsers, adding zoom:1, praying you didn’t have to support IE6….

Last line of the trailer “That was terrible”… yup.

Have you also come across this? ‘Flavor network and the principles of food pairing’ https://arxiv.org/pdf/1111.6074

I'd argue this is only true for B2C

It’s a relatively new GOV.UK requirement - this year IIRC.

Those 5k times are insane - to run a 13:42 5k at 35k in is just mind-blowing….

That email felt like the most weasel way of trying to sneak it past users - "data contribution", obfuscation, and the fact that they're not even making the opt out switch available…

Gah - you’re right - but given that I don’t use personal copilot - but I do manage an organisation that gives copilot to some of our developers AND I was sent an email this evening…

Yes - not impressed at all that this is opt-in default for business users. We have a policy in place with clients that code we write for them won’t be used in AI training - so expe…

I’ve done a bunch of testing over the years including a similar test of ‘can people hear mp3 compression’ as well as comparison of mp3 variable bit rate qualities. In practice, on …

Love this! One piece of UI feedback - on mobile particularly I often found it very difficult to access the departure timetable once I'd arrived at a station. I walked to Bercy Sein…

One of the best constraints of the TV show is the limited budget (along with the lack of mobile phone). It's frequently the case that teams panic spend in order stay ahead, but are…

I like that idea in concept - I’ve often felt similarly about budgeting apps. Many of them feel targeted either at low income / high debt people (who need strict control to manage …

This has just had a major update to include other renewables (eg hydro, solar) as well as non-renewable energy sources (gas). It’s also added grid boundaries and cabling recently -…
