The muskmobil is away (Sorting minor parking damaged oops), so sharing the wifes car.It's quite jarring going back.- The car needed to be defrosted by hand- Smelly exhaust- For some reason, it hadn't charged overnight, so we needed to go to a petrol station thingy- There was a queue for the petrol station and pumps were broken- Petrol smells bad- They charged me £60 for enough of this petrol stuff to go 300 miles, I pay 6 quid for that normally.- Clutches? Why?- Gears? Why?

For those interested, the national grid ESO will be doing another DFS "test" event today. This one is unusual, there is no guaranteed acceptance price and a requirement for only a 200MW, about half a typical session and a little over 1/3rd of peak DFS "capacity". I suspect not all suppliers will get their bid accepted, and prices will be relatively low for those who do.

A very small ~160MW procured at an average of £1.89/kWh to the supplier (Octopus take 25%).Seems octopus have got a slightly better than average offer, they're offering £1.75 to the consumer.So, TLDR. Savings Session 5-6pm today, payout is better than a poke in the eye, but certainly not enough to sit in the dark for!

Turns out the didn't get a better rate, instead they decided to pass on 100% to the consumers. Which is rather nice of themAs predicted, a number of suppliers sitting this one out, including axel/givback

Octopus octoplus results are in. £7.12 for max battery export for the hour.My automations mostly worked, just a few oversights. Reasonably confident that the next session will be set and forget. (obviously any household power savings also get rewarded still)

@neil one thing to ponder, they seem to think an individual IP address can be blocked by a provider, but the minimum advertisable address is a /24 or /48.

@bortzmeyer @neil or router ACL, or any other number of options. But there legislation doesn't seem to target transit providers, only 'IP address providers'. Presumably RIPE might be in scope, but they only deal with blocks, not individual IPs. Alternatively hosting providers, but they'd likely find it a lot easier just to terminate the users service, if they are minded to do anything.

@nixCraft one of our teams track interview candidates via an excel sheet, their answers go in the column. Copilot offered to autocomplete... Thanks copilot, it would save a lot of work but I don't think this is the best way to pick the best employees...

@BrodieOnLinux OK, so the book isn't complete and sections are missing, but I've read through the preview and I'm not as mad as I thought I might beThere is definitely a bias that LLMs will have to be adopted by developers, and it's just a question of how. With citations from those selling LLM solutions about how effective it is, of course (Github say it'll make you 55% more efficent, just send us $39 a month please!) 1/4
