I used to really like doing these conditioning exercise routines at the gym. You got some dumbbells and a matt and then jumped around and did functional stuff. But now my gym has been refitted and there is basically no space for that kind of thing so I have to try and find something else to do

I keep getting adverts for 'Scribe' where you can record yourself doing something at work once, and then it builds a step by step guide. And every ad is like "use this tools and show it to your boss they'll love it and you" - which has to be the fastest possible way to get fired

A scammer calling me a "fucking liar" because I told him that I did actually make that blocked payment he made up is possibly the most interesting example of irony I've ever witnessed

I used to be the kind of guy that moved to a polyphasic sleep pattern to try and be more productive, and now I spend 3/4 hours a day playing with spoons and trying to stop book pages from being bent/ripped. Quite the whiplash

In Engish, turkeys are named after the country Turkiye. In Turkiye, they're called "Hindi" named after India. In Hindi, they're sometimes called "Peru" named after...Peru. In Peru they're called "pavo" named after peacocks. Peacocks don't have a word for turkeys.

I made my own granola today (having never liked granolas I've brought in the past) and was pretty proud of myself until I saw it was over double the price per kilo of the most expensive granola Sainsbury's sells

Been trying to find a breakfast I can take into the office and have post gym, and I'm trying to teach myself to like overnight oats. But every cereal I've ever liked had the word crunch or crisp in it so it's not going great

About six months ago I started getting a lot less sleep - technically it's a similar length of sleep but currently I'm being disturbed once every hour-ish. (Can't complain too much about that most of the time I can go back to sleep unlike my partner! That's not the point of this thread)

Also I absolutely would have watched F1 qualifying this morning, but there was zero chance they wouldn't ruin the sprint race (that aired at 3am) and I'd much rather watch racing instead of quali with these regs

In hindsight, expanding executive powers to normalize presidents unilaterally approving foreign strikes was a bad idea. But in midsight and foresight it was also a bad idea.

Turns out (says @jburnmurdoch.ft.com) it's not so much an oversupply of graduates in the UK (the same would be true of other similar countries but it's not) as an undersupply of the kind of jobs that a better-performing, more productive economy would supply.

I do like that the big bet on AI replacing the entire software industry requires everyone to take for granted that random people across every industry can imagine useful applications and then describe them in sufficient detail to make them real. I love this optimism for us

Did my first pressure Cooking experiment today with some tenderstem broccoli. Tried the famous 0-minute technique and tbh it was undercooked! Question is, next time do we cook for longer? Cook on a higher pressure? Cook less broccoli? Or vent slower? So many options, so little broccoli to experiment
