I’ve fully leveraged the blue sky envelope and the parked that in the sidebar while we circle back to the low hanging fruit. Any builds?

- Comment on Only 25 per cent of children walk to school alone compared to 86 per cent in 1971. What went wrong? 5 days ago:
My kids both walk to school but we’re lucky enough to live 5 minutes from one school and 10 minutes from another. When they were little I used to walk them to school. And I’d see other parents dropping their kids off then running to their cars so they could get to work in time.
In 1971 my dad worked but my mum didn’t. She could take me to school when I was young without worrying about time.
I guess that’s a difference. More families have two working parents, and more adults work further away from home.

I remember living this meme many years ago, and my best friend trying to strangle me after I finally explained that I knew he was right, and had known all along. Still friends and I definitely had it coming.

I don’t have a problem with ghost kitchens. The best Indian takeaway (by far) near me doesn’t have a restaurant, they’re delivery (or collection) only. The curries are superb, and the prices are decent, presumably because they don’t have the overheads of a restaurant, waiters, bar staff, tables, chairs, linens, crockery, cutlery.
I’d rather ghost kitchens existed than find myself sitting in a real restaurant, waiting for my food, while a constant stream of helmet-wearing moped riders come in and get priority.

I don’t know who he is, I don’t know who she is, I don’t know why his meat would be on the jumbotron.
- Comment on Wait, you mean workers *don't* love the automatic dumbass machines that constantly threaten their jobs? 2 weeks ago:
I used to work for a small digital strategy consultancy. All the senior consultants up were expert in pretty much everything digital marketing and did their own data manipulation and analysis. SEO, technical SEO, link building, paid search, paid ads, Facebork ads, Youtube ads, social listening, search research… you name it. New consultants sat with experts, learned from people who genuinely knew their shit. We were expensive compared to, eg. Accenture’s off-shore teams, but our results were far stronger, and offered genuinely actionable insights (relevant to our clients’ business strategies and goals), compared to Accenture’s off-shore teams.
Then we got bought up. Quite apart from the devastation that wreaked upon our ops staff as we were ‘integrated’ into the larger company, we were instructed to start using AI for all data analysis. For efficiency. So, our junior consultants no longer did any of their own data aggregation, cleaning, manipulation, or analysis. They didn’t understand the data. They just spewed out whatever the AI told them the data said. Which, admittedly, was quicker. But there was no insight beyond the fucking obvious.
And, one by one, all the experienced people left the company.
Including me.
What had been a company of experts became a small department of AI users who didn’t understand what they were doing, or why, or what it meant.

- Comment on go watch Twin Peaks 5 weeks ago:
Loved Twin Peaks. Watched it with a group of friends back when it was first broadcast. We’d unplug the landline so we weren’t interrupted, break out the coffee and cherry pie, and everyone would shut up and just watch the show. Then we’d try and figure out wtf was going on, sometimes rewatching almost the entire episode and dissecting it. I miss that experience: no other show has come close.
Shame it got cancelled and the last few episodes of season two tried to wrap up something that needed at least one more full season.
- Comment on Fogey-assed old dude says 5 weeks ago:
Punk got into its stride, goth came along, the new romantics, the new wave of British heavy metal broke into the mainstream, thrash came into being, rap arose (possibly as a counterpoint to the declining disco) and gangsta rap was born, we had the golden age of hip-hop… comforting might not be the right word.
