In what jurisdiction are you and they domiciled?

Do you mean fired or let go / made redundant?

This is a very good way of putting it.

Another well written article from Neil about some terribly written legislation.

His personal blog is also pretty good - https://neilzone.co.uk/

Facing Worlds was absolutely peak.

Reminds me of https://cdr.icu/

We've all done it. I'm curious though, I wonder what would be the best way to prevent a user from doing this.

I'm not saying it's wrong but people are reacting to this as if the Times university guide is some objective truth.

Regarding the potential lowering of standards for widening participation purposes, this doesn't change the fact that the entry standards for Oxford and Cambridge are still higher than LSE and St. Andrews.

100% agree on this. It was terrible pre-pandemic and as much as people complain about Zoom / Teams etc Webex continues to be atrocious.

There are plenty of people who are aware of the "trade-off" of using their products but are still happy to do so. Just because they've come to a different conclusion to you doesn't mean they are in some way "wrong" to do that.

This is where you ask ChatGPT to describe the Studio Ghibli art style and then use that to create a prompt. It's an annoying extra step but it can get good results.

Safari purely because of the integration with Apple Passwords / Mail / iMessage

Some very cynical comments on this thread. Maybe, just maybe the older hardware isn't really capable of running these features properly and it's not some evil conspiracy to "force" users into upgrading?

Quite a bit of good advice here but I'd strongly recommended a "no screens in your bedroom" rule and make sure you have a good book to read.

What does agilend do?

Locally run LLMs, specifically being able to run them on your Phone.

I think they answer your question in the PSU section “Raspberry Pi 5 consumes significantly less power, and runs significantly cooler, than Raspberry Pi 4 when running an identical workload.”

Reddit's ask isn't unreasonable in principal however the inflated API pricing and the short lead-time are just ridiculous.

I'm sure part of that is the pound tanking against the dollar!

If anyone is interested in getting started with DE shaving, there is a really good wiki on /r/wicked_edge with a beginners kit guide https://www.reddit.com/r/wicked_edge/wiki/de_kit

I use https://kill-the-newsletter.com/ to get an RSS feed :-)

Great list, I think that in particular sleep schedule is so important. Really helps with making good choices regarding diet and exercise as well.

I'm a big fan of Enpass [1]. It's user friendly enough for the not so technical members of my family to use it and importantly (for me) sync is achieved via encrypted files stored on Google Drive (other services such as Dropbox are also supported).

I can think of a few occasions where they have reported on some less than truthful statements from government ministers without adding any commentary. This has certainly led to allegations of bias but do you have some examples of where their news output is “flat-out propaganda”?

That sounds interesting. Is it going to be about the psychology behind why people play those games? Is there a way for people to stay up to date with progress on the book / when it might be released?

There is another active thread on the same topic - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29703564

If people are looking to find more niche subreddits related to their other interests I've found this page https://anvaka.github.io/sayit/ to be quite useful.

I thought this might have been an article on turning nuclear waste into glass (vitrification). Might be of interest to some people especially given current questions/challenges regarding reclassifying nuclear as "renewable":

I think this is a great idea. A few thoughts on the site:

1. Initially I was entering the hashtags with the # included e.g "#formula1" and I couldn't understand why it wasn't working. Perhaps you could just automatically remove/ignore the # symbol if someone types it in?

2. It would be great if you could provide links to some pre-canned searches for recent events. For example: a recent F1 race (f1calendar.com) , football game (https://footballcal.com/) or popular TV show.

2.a) Related to the above it would be great to be able to link directly to a particular hashtag & time period e.g https://www.hashtagreplay.com/?t=1627822800&h=f1

3. Would you be able to add the ability to "pause" or "rewind" a hashtag? Sometimes I'll be watching a show (normally live sport) and the TV feed or stream will be on a slight delay. I'd love to be able to pause the twitter feed so that I can get the two in sync.

4. Perhaps a "premium" feature could be the ability to replay tweets from a twitter list/collection. For example, replay the tweets from Formula 1 journalists during a race.

“A modest amount of sleep loss (restricting the time allowed for sleep to 4 hours for one night) reduced natural killer (NK) cell activity to an average of 72%, compared with NK cell activity in participants who had a full night's sleep” [1]

In other words even one night of sleep deprivation significantly impairs your immune system. See also, “Sleep is your superpower” https://ed.ted.com/lessons/BVciktYZ
