To all of the parents who have babies/toddlers and are getting woken up in the middle of the night: There will be a day, perhaps when they're 11/12, when you'll walk into the kitchen after a long workday and find that they've baked something (without burning the house down). Hang in there.

Everybody has a box of cables (according to @mjwhansen.com) Today it saved the day. Lost internet this morning, and walked in to see the router looking decisively unwell. Quick internet search says bad power supply. Go to the box o’ cables and fetch a matching power supply. The internet is back!

It happened -- crossed 5,000 copies! 🎉 Still kind of in shock and haven't really processed it That means the sale is over. But...Amazon takes a few hours to update prices, so if you want to grab it for $£€ 5 / $£€ 10, do that now 👀

update: only 2 copies from 5,000!

Ben is such a good follow for smart, reasoned, often challenging takes on AI. In a world of AI hype, he’s the opposite
