That helps! Iโ€™ve become a Strava addict. Gradually mapping all possible routes around my workplace!

Iโ€™ve managed to go from no exercise every day to a minimum of 30 minutes by introducing a lunchtime walk (come rain or shine). Once you make a habit itโ€™s hard to break. Iโ€™ve been stacking 15 minutes rowing machine on top of that (mornings or evenings) and I feel so much better for it. :)

Well done! Thatโ€™s great.

Iโ€™m creating products again! After more than 5 years without writing a line of code, Iโ€™m building through tools like ChatGPT and Replit. I would love to connect and re-connect with others who have lost their design and development skills through role changes and are also rediscovering their passion.

Thanks for the feedback. We are looking at options to improve โ€œrefresherโ€ training so itโ€™s good to know weโ€™re aligned here.

If youโ€™re willing to pop me an email, would love to hear how you feel we could improve our disability awareness course. Really matters to us that we get these things right.

Incredibly biasedโ€ฆ but if youโ€™re after workplace training, weโ€™ve got a beautifully crafted library of video courses. ;)

Hi Katrina, we have some really excellent courses covering these topics. Your training manager probably just needs to open them up to you. :)

Hi Jason. Which courses are you finding frustrating? Let me know and Iโ€™ll feed back to the team.

If it means the key points stuck, then I guess weโ€™re doing a good job right? ;)

Rejoice! Carmakers Are Embracing Physical Buttons Again Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or highโ€”no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to itsโ€ฆ

Physical buttons are finally coming back to cars. ๐ŸคŒ

Itโ€™s not just an aesthetic choice, thoughโ€”itโ€™s a safety-conscious one. Research shows that reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high.

If this is true, it would open up the console to a whole bunch of new game types. Can someone please convince Atari to release Transport Tycoon on the Switch2!

Apple Intelligence falsely claims Luke Littler won darts final An AI-generated notification says the teen has won the tournament before the final is even played.

โ€œA BBC spokesperson said: โ€˜It is essential that Apple fixes this problem urgentlyโ€™โ€

Thing is, Apple canโ€™t. No company can โ€˜fixโ€™ errors going out in AI summaries, because theyโ€™re fancy autocomplete. AI doesnโ€™t understand information and context.

25 years on, the engineer behind the first Mac OSX dock tells all.

What a story!

Thank you for sharing it, @jamesthomson.bsky.social. (And thanks for Dragthing. I think of it often!)

Fantastic. Love this kind of software history. Fell down a rabbit hole there learning all about Copland etc.

BBC complains to Apple over misleading shooting headline Apple's new artificial intelligence features falsely made it seem the BBC reported Luigi Mangione had shot himself.

As I said -- only a matter of time before news orgs lashed out at Apple's lackluster (and evidently dangerously wrong) AI summaries of their work. This is shambolic and the BBC has every right to be furious about it.
