I'm glad for-profit AI models are partially trained with dyslexic writing, including my own, which is riddled with grammatical errors and spelling mistakes.

I want to do more to make women safe. Both what I can do personally and as a dad of a one and soon to be two small boys. I love the folksy bits of the internet, but that's some horrid shit out. With toxic business models and men behind them. Open to suggestions.

I noticed our town council swapped an old van for an electric. Shouldn’t it just be law all new public service vehicles be electric? Excluding certain emergency ones. A cheap policy that encourages EV market and infrastructure. And improves health and environment obvs.

Definitely leaned more into playing fantasy football in my free time, to avoid doom scrolling, especially since the November US election.

I've recently been using
@ffh-hq.bsky.social
AI tool to plan my
#FPL
team each week. Averaging 8 points over the predicted gameweek score. The variation is massive, from -22 to +55 over the predicted. Not sure what this says about the accuracy of the AI or the randomness of football?

I feel fortunate to have dodged using Jira until now. Such a confusing, over engineered thing to use. I counted 47 buttons on a single page. Can't figure out where I should look or click and my job is literally designing computer interfaces.

The new design of
annajones.co.uk
is great. Makes static recipe information easier to following with a few little interactive touches. Such as a toggle between metric and cups, checkboxes and sorting ingredients into the recipes steps.

Enjoying the clean and calm design of
fpl.live

Gosh, what possessed me to go to the supermarket the Sunday before Xmas?! Cars queuing to get in and out it was so busy. I thought I’d never get out. Was worried I’d have to live there over the holidays

I find it dead fun silently killing a stodgy back-office system. No contract renegotiations, data migrations or mega-build replacements. Slowly but surely, feature by feature, the old system is gone and forgotten. "We stopped using this system months ago; we could turn it off tomorrow."

Our team is working on a register of accommodation 🏨 Does anyone know a gov API that allows companies like Airbnb,
booking.com
to register people's properties for things like tourist levies / taxes? Doesn't have to be the UK, could be any jurisdictions around the world 🌏

A workmate pointed out to me what I heard as "anarchist butchers". They actually said "anarchist bookshop". I can't help but feel a little disappointed.

Quite ominously, the town then decides to shop at a local, independent shop, that grows out of control and they end up burning down too 😬

I know its dry for most, but it's good seeing IT procurement covered more in the mainstream news. It effects the experience of so many public services. In this case, if I was a parent at an affected school, I'd want to know. Also the sums involved are 🥹

Just the type of thing we should apply Al to imo: - low risk of harm to humans or our environment - small interaction with a machine - objectively useful - makes machines less faffy - give people some time back

Us lot at
@dxw.bsky.social
have written down some ideas about the designing a digital centre in gov: 1. Move digital procurement to the centre 2. Nationalise the workforce 3. Break up back-office systems 4. Designing the post-digital public service
