Attending a Protest For quick reference, we've created a handy guide designed to be printed, folded, and carried in your pocket (PDF download). Now, more than ever, citizens must be able to hold those in power accountable and inspire others through the act of protest. Protecting your electronic devices and digital assets before, during,...

Labour should be banned from Pride until such time that they have undone this vile policy and kicked Wes Streeting into the sun.

He bee CoPilot-ing for Typescript and Scala the past few months. So far it’s been… ok I guess?
Struggling to get it to fit the style and patterns of our codebase. Still think smaller, local models sound like a better fit.
