A winter bitch, but summer's in my blood. Dataflex programmer; weltschmerz collector. Hayek and Hobbes. 390 in dog years.
This insane Nike Halloween ad was entirely made with AI. I can honestly say that I was not expecting the twist ☠️ (from Chris Capel on YT)
Honestly, politicians should just be banned from also being landlords. Every second councillor or MP seems to have a rental property, and I'm not sure it should be allowed.
Worth noting that only 63 (15%) of Labour MPs bothered to vote against Reform's bill for leaving the EHCR. If LibDems hadn't shown up, this would have gone through.

                                            US housing affordability has never been worse: The US home price-to-income ratio is now up to a record 4.4x. This means the average single-family home now costs over 4 TIMES what the median household earns. This has even surpassed the 2006 Housing Bubble peak of 4.1x. The…

I'm currently working on an interface into a NZ Government API, and believe it or not, they currently charge NZD 20 an API call for the privilege. You heard that right. NZD 20 *per* API call.
My grand theory of life is to just hammer the shit out of quadrant 4
 
                                            Interesting.
UK electricity levies are spread over a declining demand base. Grid costs and generation subsidies are rising, and are currently being apportioned over an increasingly thin amount of demand. This increases their cost per unit of energy. The chart below shows the Eligible Demand…
 
                                                                            Agree with most of what Peston says. However, I would have hoped that opposition MPs and journalists would have the nous to show that even MPs can't get the beaurocracy right, and this is a sign that the system is broken and antagonistic towards small business. Regulatory Capture…
Kemi Badenoch’s call for Starmer to sack Reeves, for failing to register her family home when she rented it on moving to Downing Street, lowers the bar quite significantly for sackable offences by ministers. I am not certain all her shadow cabinet colleagues will thank her.…
Thrilled to announce we’re reimagining the Twitter bio stack from the ground up, leveraging LLM-native identity primitives to enable hypercontextual personal branding at scale. It’s not just a bio. It’s a dynamic self-sovereign narrative layer for the attention economy
OK. Finally got everything off of AWS, and onto Azure. No more outages for me!

                                            They're redoing my road. Weirdly they're starting with ground cover.
 
                                            Much action on the phones today as the Aunties have finally figured out how old Noreen is.
On the FFMpeg drama, I'm of the strong opinion that people shouldn't do opensource work that nobody asked for and then expect people to congratulate them. Do it for the love of coding, because you're being paid, or because you have a need that's not covered elsewhere. @DHH is…
Streamer drama is basically Less Than Zero for an AI generation.
I would love to see this one play out. Can you imagine the chaos.
Zack Polanski on renationalising water companies, "Shareholders can't say stock not worth anything then expect payment to renationalise"
Idiocy from @TheTimes. Of all the items in an office that save money, having decent chairs with good lumbar support is likely to save you thousands in the long run. My own office chair cost nearly £600 on its own, and I consider it absolute value for money.
