UK Tax returns have gone digital, which is fine in principle. What is not fine is that pretty much only paid solutions are acceptable for submitting a return. If electronic tax returns are mandatory, the government should be providing a cost-free means […]

Calvin and Hobbes cartoonist Bill Watterson expresses a Calvin-esque sentiment in a cycling self-portrait he drew for his college yearbook Happy #BicycleBirthday, Bill! Born July 5, 1958
Cartoon illustration featuring a young man riding a road bicycle on a country road. There's a thought bubble with the text: "Ah, I can take physics tests any day."

Wow, LLMs really are inefficient aren't they? Just tried running one locally just to see if it worked. On a (far from slow) 8 core cpu, it took about 8 hours to generate a simple hello world script (using qwen2.5-coder:7b, if you're interested). Trying deepseek-coder:6.7b and it's much the same.

**New cycle lane alert klaxxon** A 50m stretch outside the houses of Parliament, which seems to have gone in quite rapidly (under a week?) Not sure why it's been installed though as it doesn't link up with any other proper infra and just connects to the old existing painted lane.

So let me get this straight.
Democrats have invented an
untraceable, undetectable
method for rigging elections,
and rather than using it to win
the presidency, they used it to
win a mayoral race in a
famously blue city in a
famously blue state that
pitted a seasoned politician
against a widely disliked
reality TV personality with no
discernible skills or redeeming
qualities. Diabolical is right.
