This should be the top comment!!!

It is so incredibly bad that for years I have assumed it must be me or my specific laptop. And then the years go by I just accept it.

Anytime Apple is mentioned "comically bad search" should be mentioned. It is the association I have in my mind.


I'm doing a house price guessing game for the UK:

https://housepriceguess.com/

It's just a fun game but can be useful for people wanting to get a better sense of what the real estate market is like at the moment.

I should really have added a bunch more games by now but I've been sidetrack. Mentioning it here has already given me a bit of motivation to do that now.

Any feedback will be much appreciated.


Why is this getting downvoted. Is it because of a general anti-cloudflare sentiment?

Can you just use the 2 without a phone?

Yes, if you get cellular on the watch.

For some values of "use". You cannot do without an iPhone (with a recent enough version of iOS): https://support.apple.com/en-us/109015

This is the most exciting direction for LLMs for me. I am already dreaming of the day when you boot to an LLM that proceeds to implement an OS on the fly. Wow - just the thought has me salivating.


Has anyone tried CodeBuddy? Is it worth trying out?


"marked using a pencil"

Why would you not want to mark paper ballots with pens / ink which will be harder to change?


I've attended a few UK vote counts. Pencil is also used - but you can bring your own pen if you'd like.

I think it's mainly to prevent smudges as the paper is folded to be put into the ballot box. Pencils are also more reliable than pens, and have a longer shelf life between votes, I'd imagine?

At the polling stations & counts I've been to and overseen there is pretty much zero opportunity (or interest) in changing people's votes on the papers. I'd imagine this is the same in most first-world countries. In fact, once I spotted and got corrected a paper missed for a candidate opposing the candidate I was a counting agent for.


I jumped on the hype and paid $8 for a link on outbid.lol

Was I stupid? Probably...

But at this stage I am experimenting with reddit ads which charge more than $1 for a click so if I get more than 8 clicks I won't be doing too badly.

It's hard to know the value of such small ad spends but everyone has to start somewhere.

Advice from anyone who has figured out an amazing advertising solution will be much appreciated.

There is a chap in London who does some great work with researching and spreading awareness of air pollution:

He also runs this repo:

Would love a similar post breaking down the rightmove (UK equivalent of zillow) tax. Fortunately there is currently a court case against them that might help. I am also starting a #RightmoveHygiene campaign to encourage people to spend less time on there.
