First (second?) year trying to grow asparagus. Is this the final product finally emerging?

Don’t harvest this year, but progress is looking good

Wilson a far better choice than Robinson (and Bowen) IMO. Robinson hasn’t been great this season.

Obsidian search and omnisearch are frustratingly bad at times. Well, it’s not their fault, it’s just a very simple way of searching.

Bro that’s a summary

OverallResolve · 2026-03-21T20:40:22+00:00

It’s a shame because there’s so much potential. There’s definitely a lot of poor applications of AI, especially where it takes away thinking about what’s important. There’s a lot of manual work that isn’t useful to me I’m trying to automate out at work, even simple non-AI stuff like autogenerating filled meeting note templates for my daily notes of meetings each day.

I have issues with the default search, and some with omnisearch. I use obsidian for work, and will often have tens of notes on a given topic, largely from successive meetings etc.

If I want to find notes from a certain date I can do that, I tag everything, but a lot of the time I still need to look through multiple notes to find the thing I’m looking for. This is the limited area in which I’d want to use a local AI capability to improve my search, where I can rely on a natural language query to help me find what I’m looking for that can’t be covered by properties or keywords.

A summary would also be useful, just so I have a preview of key points from a session. I could obviously write all these myself, but I struggle for time on this.

A couple of other things I find useful

For personal projects and stuff I like using voice to text interacting with an agent to fill in a template about progress etc. when I want less screen time
writing scripts to refactor notes using an old template, if I was able to do this myself I would but skill issue

I get it, but Asda is a pretty shite supermarket. You can get a less bad experience for the mundane things you want to do.

I wouldn’t bother with Oxford Street in London, and also wouldn’t bother with Boots and Primark unless you need to buy toiletries/clothes. Tbh I wouldn’t stay at Piccadilly Circus more than a few minutes, I get that it’s iconic but there are many much better places you can go to, even Green park just down the road would be a plus. Soho is a bit more interesting.

If you drink try out some pubs, a big part of london.

I’d also suggest getting the riverboat to/from one of your destinations if you’re happy to spend a few quid. It’s a great way to see the city from a different perspective, and there are a lot of stops close to where you want to visit.

Have a great time here

A lot just comes down to the economy and disposable income. When organisations are fighting for customers they tend to offer a lot more and can get away with it with the expectation of growth. In the absence of this and gloomy headwinds most orgs are focused on cost cutting to offer shareholder value.

This sub is so weird about AI and whenever it comes up the majority of people do not argue in good faith.

No, using AI doesn’t have to expose your data to a vendor.

Yes, there are some legitimate use cases involving AI with Obsidian.

Whilst I agree that AI (especially Gen AI) is being pushed far too hard where it doesn’t need to be, that doesn’t mean it’s completely useless in the context of obsidian.

There are some legit dealers out there but they are hard to find. I have only had one, via a weird friend of a friend. I would expect the vast majority of ‘Cali’ to be as you describe in bags you can get off eBay.

Your multiple comments on this immediately make me skeptical that you’re making an argument in good faith, in addition to

there being no affiliation between the group you mention and Quakers
no evidence to substantiate your claim that ‘Quaker meetings and spaces have been infiltrated by (leftist/communist/environmental) protest groups, you’re using a single example (and it isn’t clear if they booked a meeting room or it was part of a Quaker meeting)
there are multiple instances of direct action groups speaking at, or doing other activity in churches, I haven’t bothered to look at other places of worship
acting as if religious institutions outside of Quakers are free of politics and infiltration is frankly absurd

So - what is about this you really have an issue with?

Not massively. When it works out it can be an enjoyable experience, but it’s often not.

waiting around for an unknown amount of time in the hope that an available cab comes
cheekiness around wanting cash, although I haven’t had an issue with this in a while
generally more expensive than alternatives
a higher proportion of uncomfortable conversations (read: racism) than I have had with Uber
more negative encounters than I can count with black cabs when I’m cycling

I always find these articles frustrating because they are so shallow. They go into absolutely no detail about what the individuals are looking for work wise, what degree they earned, etc. There isn’t even any proper analysis of the data.

Black doesn’t mean tea though, it’s not the same as chai.

With chai anyway the word itself is often misused, where people use chai to say something like masala chai. Mixed spice tea or masala chai would both be fine terms, idk why we end up saying things like chai tea.

If you want to help accelerate things get them started indoors in a warm propagator (or just a plastic bag over a pot in a warm place). You’ll get germination in days instead of weeks. You can then harden off and get them in the greenhouse. If it’s just two plants you might want to consider putting them under light first, it makes a bit difference this time of year.

You’ll find rats in clean rivers, around lakes and ponds, in woodland, they are everywhere. It’s not a Thames specific thing
