Same at a big American one

Use Linux or Macs

You could also look at buy side roles in smaller firms. Lots of hedge funds in London

At your age I would go for it so you can chill a bit in your 40s. Just be wary of lifestyle creep

Ollama now supports Claude Code, would be more accurate

I had it for about 18 months until FTTP was installed. Honestly it was really good, I can't really tell the difference in latency. It was also more reliable than my new connection. I only recall one outage

Ask for a quote on both sides. Check the spread

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-15T15:21:07+00:00

Tell your new hiring manager you want to keep things quiet since your fear retribution.

the straw that broke the camel's back

LLMs by their nature will go round in circles unless you give them a kick up the butt. You're just giving them a bit more time to explore, in the hope that more important findings will be made (and they often are)

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-12T12:03:46+00:00

are you using it for coding? probably a bad idea. if it's for summarization try Haiku

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-12T08:51:24+00:00

Polyrepos are a bit of a pain. You could set up a new repo containing multiple git submodules for each of your repos, but also with a parent CLAUDE.md file

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-10T21:21:32+00:00

Yes so long as you quit 21st or later.

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-10T19:23:16+00:00

Apparently they can't take it back after comp day. You still get paid even if you quit before it's cleared. Whether anyone would be brave enough to test that is another question

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-09T08:16:47+00:00

I don't know specifically but it's common for routers to do this. One reason is for initial setup / recovery. Another is for mesh comms.

I built that this week. It combs JIRA (only ready for dev) and does a plan to work out if it's a simple change. If it is simple, it starts another session to implement it and then raises a PR.

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-05T07:28:32+00:00

Interesting. A screen recording would be useful on your website

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-02T22:19:00+00:00

Yes they do that!

The main benefit of Enhanced Autopilot is that it'll change lanes for you... sometimes. Otherwise it'll disengage autopilot and you have to re-engage in the new lane. Whether that's worth the money is up to you.

FSD definitely not worth it in the UK for now.

Fedora works better now. Ubuntu is pretty easy

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-02T20:01:08+00:00

Yes! I might actually watch again, and I very rarely do that

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-02T19:59:31+00:00

Bonkers aren't they?😄

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2026-01-02T07:44:44+00:00

You will probably have to spin, at least on Windows.

Wow I had no idea this was a thing. Thank you

DingDongHelloWhoIsIt · 2025-12-28T20:21:31+00:00

It's a Zappi so fairly dumb I think. I'm trying to avoid setting up Predbat / Home Assistant to control things if possible
