Honestly, if they had half the talent of Damon Albarn they wouldn’t need the cash.

OK, it was a basic pattern recognition model, nothing nearly as sophisticated as we have now, but I think it would have performed significantly faster.

I had the idea to offload machine learning to GPUs back in the early 00’s. I was working for a company doing number plate recognition back then, so I was even in a position to act on my idea… but my boss thought I was nuts.

I’m not sure how much money I would have made, but it’s got to be better than this!

I use Tumbleweed btw.

Not to be nit-picky, but I’m pretty sure they kicked him because they thought he was antisemitic, not because he was too left wing.

• Maternal grandma died before I was born.
• Paternal grandma cooked a great roast beef and Yorkshire puddings. Incidentally, she would - and I’m sure this was deliberate - massacre Lancashire hot pot. The war of the roses raged on until the late 20th century, in her mind at least.
• Mum cooked a great schnitzel and cucumber salad with caraway seeds. The schnitzel was fried, I’ve never heard of a baked schnitzel before…
• Fiance cooks too many great things to choose just one

Or, less obvious… this one saw me through some dark times:

Fair point!

The best vegan recipes are indian. You can certainly eat well as a vegetarian in London, but most places will have an indian restaurant with a few veggie choices.

I dunno, having the same music taste seems like a good starting point at least.

Simple: I fucking hate driving. I hate the smell, I hate the noise, and I hate the stress. Thr environmental impact isnt exactly a plus point either. You could say that I’m lucky to live in a place with good public transport, but I actively sought out a place with public transport because I didn’t want to rely on a car.

Final nail on the coffin: I developed Menieres disease, so I am prone to intense vertigo attacks at short notice - I couldn’t get a license even if I wanted one.

Amateur! Ints should be called i, j or k.

Nethack. I remember playing it at university 30 years ago when it was text only. Amazingly, there is a version available for android and its fucking addictive.

Should have used Postgres…

Sure, protest all you want, but for the love of all that’s good - get out and vote at each and every opportunity, or these shit lords will just get reelected.

It doesn’t matter for shit if you protest. What matters is votes in elections.

Italy. The food but also the Italians are really hospitable.

Why would I want to use this instead of AWS Session Manager? I have a policy of no SSH enabled on any of my servers. Is this compatible with SSM connections too?

Having just implemented compliance with the new EU whistle blower regulations… this sounds illegal to me? Not sure what the judge is smoking, but this is going to be challenged in the E.U. courts at least.

I prefer the non nonsense interface of RSS Guard, but then I’m reading CVE notices, so I need it simple and organised.
