High Court hearing today on Thames Water plan to borrow another £3bn. Already has £17bn debt, mostly to fund dividends, wants 53% price hike. Nearly a third of customer bill covers interest payments. More debt= higher bills. Let it go bankrupt. Nationalise at nominal price.

The year is 1999. You've just finished the installation and hit that .exe. You never knew it at the time, but this was destined to be, one of the greatest pc gaming experiences in your life.

Been using the Deno kernel for Jupyter the last couple of days and honestly its great. Quick way to experiment with JS based ML/AI tooling like you'd get with Python. I've got high hopes for ML in JS over this year

How ironic? BTW, where did OpenAI get its data from? Did they pay for it? Tech bros are mad because they lost imaginary trillion dollars 😂

it genuinely sucks that basically nothing on the internet works well anymore. search? barely works. social media? filled with garbage engagement-bait designed to game the algorithm. news websites? pages that refresh at random or so covered in video ads that it’s impossible to read stories

Time for my weekly checkin on Zed preview to see if they've shipped a debugger and commit GUI yet so I can use it day to day rather than VSCode.

V0.dev and bolt.new are both cool but where are the generative AI tools for opinionated battery included frameworks like Laravel or Rails? Surely given the strong patterns and opinions of those frameworks LLMs will do a great job creating and iterating code for them
