Any chance you would publish that guide and share here?

Lots of negativity here, but this is interesting to me and moves Zed towards something that is more than 'just' an IDE in a future where IDE users may be in the minority of people creating software.

It's not a fact at all, it's a lie spread by people who want to stoke anger for their own benefit.

Can we stop it with this two tier justice system nonsense?

The car in this example is electric but the problem is not confined to electric cars.

And that when the adverts refresh all the content on the page shifts and you lose track of what you have read.

The kind of field where AI builds more in a day than a team or even contract dev does.

I had the same conversation with a colleague who managed an engineering department, his answer was that he can take on new freelancers quickly and fire them just as quickly.

There are also patterns where freelancers are more desirable early on in an economic recovery, e.g. the company thinks it might be safe to start hiring again but is not feeling quite confident enough to take on full time staff (cost of firing etc.)

On the last day that tax payments were due

I’ve mixed them up too and that was the worst Mac and Cheese I ever made!

Writing a whole load of tests up front and then coding until all the tests pass is not TDD.

Spending time with kids > giving stuff to kids.

How much potential is there for the opposite effect from a chat-bot with less noble intentions? Or does the ability to cite evidence and presumably references cover that off?

This is the biggest issue for me as well. Seems that the OCR has to be triggered manually, for each page of each notebook. Which of course I don't remember to do and now there are too many.

The search doesn't appear to search across notebooks either.

The experience that I would want (expect) is that OCR happens in the background, all the time, no need to trigger and that I can then search for a word/string and find all the notes on that topic.

I've fallen back to tags and dates in filenames to have any chance of tracking down old meeting notes.

My kids liked Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls, it has loads of one page stories about famous and not so famous women from throughout history. Nicely illustrated too.

Just read this last night! as part of the 'Valuable Humans in Transit and Other Stories' collection.

Our daughter too, she’s been on a maintenance dose equivalent to two peanuts, once a week. It’s been life changing. She’s had several trips to A&E before the treatment but after a few years she was able to tolerate a dose equivalent to ten peanuts (although that still made her quite nauseous).

Wasn't the first webcam setup to show whether a coffee pot was full?

They could outsource this to someone only too grateful to keep it running for less than the cost of an internal engineer

5 LED Downlights in the kitchen, 3 in the upstairs bathroom, 2 in the downstairs bathroom all installed by an electrician 11 years ago and still going fine.

LED bayonet fitting bulbs in the regular light fittings in the rest of the house seem to only get a few years though.

Having smart plugs that are controlled by voice is satisfying. "Hey Siri, turn the Christmas tree lights on"

I really like Things 3 on Mac and iPhone for recording and managing my Todos

In a similar vein, I had a Pleo payment card at a previous job, and the speed with which it notified me on my phone when I had paid on the card, prompting me to take a picture of the receipt, always made me smile.

More often than not the notification came through before the receipt had even printed.

Perhaps not in a Lamborghini

Currently looking at Jaguar I Pace. There are quite a lot in the £20-25k range with <60k miles that would have been about £65k new.

I'd happily look at a Model Y, but out of my budget

Whether or not you think they matter, they vote, and in larger numbers than the younger electorate.

Thanks, I'll look into that

Right now, looking at buying a used EV, I am more scared that the battery or electrics fail for some reason than I am of their gradual degradation over time.

I don't know how likely that is, but it's putting me off anything other than manufacturer approved used with a solid warranty.

If you have had the misfortune to open the default homepage in MS Edge recently, it is routinely a smorgasbord of anti EV rhetoric from the likes of the Telegraph, Express and Mail.

Someone somewhere is spending a lot of money on promoting those views to the sort of people who don't change their browser or their homepage.

In Europe, Renault sold the Zoe and others on a battery lease basis, reducing the vehicle cost but with a recurring lease on the battery.

For me, as a used car buyer who wants to buy a car outright (not on finance) that rules it out. I don't want to commit to paying Renault monthly to lease a battery at a price that is more than I currently spend on petrol.

To be fair, that is not very logical on my part, it does not make financial sense for me to go electric as I do so few miles.
