Having said that it’s been very rewarding!My ‘children’ are all parents themselves now. If you think it’s wearing now, you ain’t seen nothing yet!My boy is a bit over 2 and a half and while it’s fun it’s incredibly wearing right now…Is the polling for boy or girl? 😅Thanks TSECongratulations to you and your wife on your truly joyous news.@PpollingNumbersGiven Vance is VP he will be favourite for the GOP nomination but will need Musk's money too, ideologically Musk is now closer to Vance than Trump.
Elon Musk is reportedly considering supporting JD Vance for a potential 2028 presidential run.
Problem for Vance is while he is more intelligent than Trump he is less charismatic
Congratulations. It is great fun being a parent, even if a bit wearing at times.

I was five feet ten at the age of 12. Spent school holidays at talent spotted basketball camps.
I'm still five ten. Always been an awkward sod.

Summer is nearly at its end, the days are cooling, and the Mail and Telegraph have yet to trigger the riot they’ve been urging since the sun came out in May. Tick tock, boys, tick tock. No one likes pushing flaming wheelie bins in the Autumn rains .

There's a rural one too. Post war agriculture policy: pay farmers to pull up hedges, destroy woodland and poison the fields for about 60 years; then pay them to put it all back to normal again.Surely just a Keynesian make work scheme - dog a hole and fill it in. Smuggle people on, fly them out, etcBritain First's "March for Remigration" led by a convicted people smugglerInteresting change of direction in terms of career.

It Took Many Years And Billions Of Dollars, But Microsoft Finally Invented A Calculator That Is Wrong SometimesGiven the number of people I've watched botch copy/pasting a column or row from one Excel sheet to another - I'm not sure it's an overall negative. Even if it does it wrong - doing it wrong quicker than the human who did it wrong is still a win.
It's not AI winter just yet, though there is a distinct chill in the air. Meta is shaking up and downsizing its artificial intelligence division. A new report out of MIT finds that 95 percent of companies' generative AI programs have failed to earn any profit whatsoever. Tech stocks tanked Tuesday, regarding broader fears that this bubble may have swelled about as large as it can go. Surely, there will be no wider repercussions for normal people if and when Nvidia, currently propping up the market like a load-bearing matchstick, finally runs out of fake companies to sell chips to. But getting in under the wire, before we're all bartering gas in the desert and people who can read become the priestly caste, is Microsoft, with the single most "Who asked for this?" application of AI I've seen yet: They're jamming it into Excel.

Excel is generally a hot mess roll-of-the-dice as it is. I say bring on our non-deterministic clippy overlord. If we're lucky, it will show people how bad Excel is and not to trust it with anything of value.

I've decided Alien Earth is really good.I really liked the first episode. The second I felt was a long 'shaky torches and jump scares'. So I'm waiting to watch ep.3 to see how it fares.
They've essentially recreated the entire aesthetic from the original movie, but with a big budget and 21stC sensibilities.
It shouldn't work - objectively it's not very convincing as sci-fi - but it's as creepy as the original, and it does.
