I’m off out on Christmas Eve to buy a pink grapefruit.

❗️Unsolicited Rant:
The Dyson Airblade dryers and their competitors’ models are quick, effective and efficient.
But the unacceptable downsides are scuzzy trickles of water, slippy puddles on the floor, stained walls and general public facility dampness.
Why is no one talking more about this?!

These annoyed me at the time because chips are fried potatoes and crisps are fried potatoes, so that cancels out. They may as well have called them fish crisps, and no one wants fish crisps. I was overthinking, but I stand by my position on this.

Perhaps bokashi becomes my next big thing? Though I do already have people shouting “how are your worms?” across the office, so maybe I’ll do a quieter launch this time round.

I’ve had it about a year and I’ve only used the “juice” so far, which I dilute and use outdoors. Not looking forward to the day I have to empty it out and extract the bottom layers, if I’m totally honest.

During Covid lockdown, if you had family round on Christmas Day the police could force their way into your home and make them return to their own homes.
Does anybody know if this service is still available and, if so, do you have to book it?

Grammarly mention made me think - drafting a piece of work, then asking “where are my arguments weak?” or “give me an alternative perspective”, is amazing.
Objective: deliver an amazing piece of work, build/develop knowledge/understanding - great!
Objective: assess knowledge/understanding, less so.

The representation of my body’s energy levels through recent days of illness is fascinating - it’s like I just shut down on Day 3 🤒

I like your modular AI model. Thinking of AI as a colleague, I should know their CV - how they trained, their skillset and expertise, where they can bring value, where they can’t. Your model extends that metaphor and describes an AI team. Though I guess some of those team members could be human too…
