And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury Signifying nothing.

The AI nonsense now being pushed more on here can’t tell the difference between the two Tom Hollands, trebles all round.

This is the example they chose to show, and it tells you to make a 4"x4.5" panel out of sandpaper?

Reader, it was not well answered: “The National Security and Investment (NSI) Act 2021 does not define "critical national infrastructure".” — https://t.co/PdnppCyHH9 I guess the question would be “Would the government issue a call-in notice under the NSI Act 2021?”

Yes! @NWSNHC can join my map club - another option is to use input type=image with map tiles, and some server side trigonometry, to get the latitude and longitude of a non-JS map click :)

“requires tooling to be productive and competitive” – really? Odd, as I find so much awful JS development out there due to the tooling… https://t.co/hAXivhaLm6 or https://t.co/BQrAjl4JpW And even good packages don’t realise what the tooling is doing eg

Microsoft Photos decided it couldn’t open some JPEGs synced with iCloud from mum’s account and deleted them even though they opened on her phone and then synced and they’re just gone and that’s photos of her grandchildren and why is tech so bad and they just push more crap on top

The current @pizzaexpress kids’ wordsearch is missing one of the words (we assume there’s a typo, as there’s an ENNY). My emotion is… sadness.

There’s nothing I like more than a new feature that makes the page take visibly longer to load, in order to load something that’s the same as what it has already loaded further down. You may find https://t.co/vnE5H0lzQl useful.

Saw this, saw that the official website was a list of questions ( https://t.co/UrLRDSDp5E), and knocked up this equivalent web form version :) https://t.co/3YUwDf9aHh

This reduces my DerekGuy-number to 2, as I know the person in this photo. Goes well with my Bacon number of 3 ;-)

Not only is this dreadful, taking us back years in security terms, I remain of the belief that this is unsolvable; this isn’t incremental improvement, this is just how they work. But no, they’ll just add instructions, piling bad on top of bad like the UK’s rail ticketing system.

Pretty sure this is ITC Bradley Hand, designed in 1995 by Richard Bradley.

Google Maps just off its head nowadays

“we hope you join us in moving forward into new and innovative ways for navigating web and app experiences” – no! Be old and boring! Don’t break the web! It’s a list of redirects! It’s the least you could possibly do! If I can keep 20 year old URIs still working, so can you!

Here is https://t.co/qG2HYm5fFJ – firstly with JavaScript that loaded (slippy map, we like JS!), and then when it didn’t load (as I went into a tunnel). The pan, zoom, aerial toggle, etc all still work. The map tiles are server-side image maps for reporting. It is possible :)

https://t.co/jzYYcYI5E4 now has current prices! Birmingham, for the day, same ticket flexibilities, to: • Bristol for £64.90, not £147.80: https://t.co/x2fpiEA8lz • Oxford for £36.40, not £99.40: https://t.co/82BmiMhitA • London for £83, not £188.80:

Trillion dollar company, yet this is still how they display information that clearly had the space to appear in the main window

Turns out it is quite easy to do! (ably assisted by @alexparsons)

Tony Blair Institute: “the DWP workforce could free up as much as 40 per cent of its time using AI tools” Goldman Sachs: “AI technology is exceptionally expensive, and to justify those costs, the technology must be able to solve complex problems, which it isn’t designed to do.”

I think before looking at the DWP, perhaps we should wonder whether the Tony Blair Institute could be replaced by AI tools?
