That is actually true! I fear for the exponential growth of traffic cones In Edinburgh. I hope they stay safe 😬

Dan Conn @danconn.dev · 29/09/2026
No. Sunday was the first day. Which was zero. As there were no traffic cones on it on Sunday. So Monday and Tuesday had to be 1 - this is utterly ridiculous!!! Not like the days of the week theory 😂

Can’t be the Fibonacci Sequence it has to repeat 1 - must be days of the week 😂

Alas I have been slain. By chilli jam. Just as we entered London. Must be a no go zone.

On Monday, one traffic cone. On Tuesday, two traffic cones. Based on the dataset we can extrapolate that Edinburgh must signify the days of the week by adding traffic cones to the Duke of Wellington statue. That or we should probably ensure we have enough data to form the right conclusions.

Yup, which hopefully I was clear to caveat above. No point in raising alarms, but it’s pretty interesting from a “realm of possibilities” perspective 🙂

Very interesting! Now let’s be sensible about this, there have been no incidents with this. But it’s interesting enough to consider self-replicating worm-like prompt injections. Fusing old threats with new. Nice! alignment.openai.com/misalignment...

Awww thanks! I’m going by train! I’ve been a couple of times but I’ve never arrived so late so not sure what might still be open!

Got out of bed, had breakfast and now on my way to Edinburgh! Should get there around 10:30pm and will probably be starving! Anyone know of any good food places open?

Thanks! I’m more a Lewis fan than any team fan but i respect most teams! I used to work at a Mercedes dealership garage when Lewis raced for McLaren and we used to get a bonus whenever he won (same when he moved to Mercedes) but even before that I’ve always had a soft spot for McLaren❤️

Absolutely. I personally never got Pokémon. My younger siblings got well into it but I always thought it was a massive scam with televised propaganda. Obviously nothing like Pogs.

Pokémon card scalpers are modern day dodgy schoolyard drug dealers that used to lace speed with rat poison and weed with oregano.

Ten things more trustworthy than Nigel F*cking Farage
With Reform's popularity at the polls taking a dive, I thought I'd share my thoughts on Nigel Farage. They aren't particularly kind thoughts.

Morning! Honestly didn’t realise how much giving blood yesterday would drain me! Other than eat, watch F1 and F1 Academy I slept through all yesterday. Gonna rest more today. An interesting thing is that a nurse said that you burn 600 calories when you give blood. One to remember next time.
