I’d ask what specific, measurable benefits this policy provides to the pupils and staff.
My kid went to a school with no uniform, just rules about dressing appropriately. Never once did I see any reason why a uniform would be needed.

I started adding star ratings to tracks in my library so I can auto populate a playlist only with songs getting 3 1/2 stars or more and download them to my phone.
The album that got the highest number of tracks on this playlist was Alligator by The National.


ASML makes the machines and they’re restricted from exporting to China. Does China have the capability to make comparable ones itself?


I’m hoping sodium ion cars become available soon. I’ll happily trade some range in ideal conditions for being more resistant to very cold temps.


Probably FIFA but I haven’t played in years.
I guess you’re lucky enough to not have a job that relies on you being available should shit hit the fan.
My Apple Watch is way better than a traditional watch. One reason I like it is because it’s not an unneccessary distraction. Before I had one I’d get pings from my phone and have to dig it out to see what the text/email/etc was, now I just glance at my watch briefly and go back to what I was doing unless it’s an important message I really need to act on straight away.


People experience music differently. If I’m going to listen to music, I have to sit there and actively listen to it. If music is playing when I’m trying to work on something, I have to turn it off, it’s too distracting.

Strange review that fixates on the price, which doesn’t seem that high to me.


Was it this slop company that recently said it wasn’t going to do any more “side quests”?


Oh, I know. My comment was more about how we tend to anthropomorphize this stuff and give these models traits they don’t possess.


It could be a moronic sysadmin, it could just as easily be a moronic exec pushing staff to implement this crap right now and damn the consequences.

I’m not attacking you but we really need to figure out how we use language to accurately describe what these programs are doing.


Deadwood is well worth a watch too.


I’m used to getting up early on the weekend to watch EPL games so the kick off times would be welcome but I’m not going to watch. I skipped the last one, it’s not a big deal to skip this one.


How do they succeed though?
I’m not seeing the market for LLMs in any meaningful roles given they are prone to saying things that aren’t true. Would you hire someone who does good work 90% of the time and for the rest, tells you the work is done, when it’s not, or worse.
David Attenborough, and I hope he’s around for as long as he wants to be.
