Just watched Codex set £100 on fire by doing Implement safeguard → reviewer finds another callback boundary → add prerequisite → test/review prerequisite → discover another prerequisite. For idk 5hrs. AGI is not here, y’all. It never would have escaped that loop.

a largely undocumented aspect of building your own apps that integrate with your calendar is that testing them involves a constant fear of being late for plausible sounding meetings as it runs automated tests

I used to be fairly fluent in education twitter (UK) when I worked in the sector and used to see some wild arguments on main but I’ve seen some of that stuff pop up on LinkedIn and it’s deep sigh time

Making the London marathon a two day event is an exceptionally dumb idea and I’m stunned it’s got this far

This is Amy Madigan and Ed Harris refusing to applaud Elia Kazan's honorary Oscar in 1999. During the Blacklist Era, Kazan named names. Good on Amy and Ed.

Industry is hands down the best thing the BBC have had a hand in. And a top five HBO show. It’s that good. The best writing, best direction, best casting, best editing, best music supervision. God.

Would love love love to see some product people at Netflix explain the process for integrating podcasts into the UI. Or UX people. I’ve been watching videos of people going through it and … ???

Really really hate the exchange of “comment here for [x]” on LinkedIn it’s so ick. Now my strategy is to actively return to the post and delete my comment which feels extreme but also helps [me]

I am really, really annoyed by Netflix buying WBD. I truly hope WBD destroys them from the inside like every company that has bought WB suffers through.
