The first name , last name conventions in the Asian games scorecard is very very inconsistent and irks me. Smriti Mandhana is SS Mandhana but Shafali Verma is Shafali . Wish they’d stick to a single convention

Our AC compressor fan got ripped up . Our service tech gave a $662 estimate and a replacement window of next week . Given that it’s super hot and I get heat migraines are my kryptonite and $662 is expensive , I have a new tech coming out tomorrow who thinks it’ll cost half or a third of that 662

As a gift to myself and because I need something fun in my life , I’m building myself a Winamp style music webplayer pulling seeds off YouTube , built with the skin of a Tamizh tea shop . It’s not a huge passion project or anything but I genuinely need to do something constructive to bring stress

I don’t know what Anthropic did to the Claude models , but they suck as blind research now - essentially , I have two agents set up - one to validate whether my research sources are still correct and another to validate that I have not conflated / overstated based on my inference

The best thing I’ve purchased in a long long time is this set of silicone tea bags I now use to steep my loose tea. Since becoming a loose tea person I’ve struggled with finding the right steeper but these silicone bags have helped a lot , fuss free to clean and maintain and steep

As a nearly 40 year old that’s trying to have a semi-decent relationship with parents that are considerably older < in case of my dad > and less Mature < my mum> my pet peeve is that they want an open conversation about my fucked up upbringing , but the instant I bring something up about it

In India , CD drives were expensive and therefore most school labs would allow only floppy disks getting a case of them was like a bonanza for my 14 year old self . Three years later I went to college and having a case of rewritable CDs at disposal and your own ftp address at school felt posh

Was having a conversation with @vatsan16.bsky.social @vaishs.bsky.social @isarans.bsky.social @anrdh.bsky.social about how as cricket fans we refer to some players by their first names and some others by their last. Wondering if cricket-sky also has a theory behind it 🏏

Test match in telly is the best thing on a Friday morning , esp when it’s the girls playing one . Give women more tests
