@Edent Are there ways to speak to your MPs face-to-face, that don't involve the internet, email or the usage of technology? Teach me, and I will go forth :)

Make code contribution

Employer immediately throws it into AI and returns generated code back to me and commits to repo​.

I tell them why the code is bad.

They throw my criticism into the AI.

It returns code that is still bad.

I am just driving the LLM by proxy at this point. I think my boss just figured out a way to make LLM usage even more wasteful than it already was. What an innovation.

Is it rude to ask your employer to stop showing you their AI generated code?

"Your chosen software must be HMRC-approved or you could face serious fines and penalties."

What the actual fsck? This has to be a lie.

@neil > From April 2026, sole traders and landlords with an income over £50,000 will need to comply with MTD for Income Tax by using compatible software to report their income and expenses quarterly

Do you have any idea what the "compatible software" is?

@neil I found the meme

@neil will you be going too https://bytenight.brussels?

@neil I seem to remember a post you made about needing to submit to American law when signing up for a bank account in the UK, do you happen to know where that post is? I can't find it!

@neil what do you think the least offensive route for someone who doesn't want to download an android app to verify their status as a PSC for companies house is? Is it best to use the ACSP solutions provided by your accountant, or is there a route via the post office that makes sense?
