Snapped a belt. Waddling like a penguin.

Had a couple of panicked messages from people trying to get into their phones today.
The OFCOM statement at the end of this is laughable.
YOU’VE LOCKED VULNERABLE PEOPLE OUT OF ACCESSING AND PAYING FOR THINGS!

Spent the afternoon screaming into the void.
Do not reply emails.
Phone call centres where voice recognition doesn’t work.
Online forms that don’t have image uploads when photographic proof is wanted.
Having a mega stress attack.

Still cross at this post from yesterday. It’s wrong in so many ways.
In this analogy “Vibe Coding” is turning up on stage, pressing play on the demo button, then telling everyone you’re the composer.
It’s demeaning to both musicians and engineers. #AI https://mastodon.social/@ChrisPirillo/116128453898832849

Watching #IREvITA with baby niece. She’s shoving banana down her face and loves it when the ref shows up.

@botvolution @patterfloof @Binder Went back to the same place on a job about 15 years ago. Gok Wan was filming in the same place. The network setup there was a bit dodgy.
He’s a grumpy git when he cant use instagram in a valley.
