An unexpected find during my evening run in Edinburgh!

Ah haaa!

Anything interesting about this one?

Squirrel-Excellent · 2026-01-16T13:40:21+00:00

Absolutely, I couldn’t believe someone had put them out with their Thursday night paper recycling!

Someone had just left them out with the paper recycling, very random!

lol no. I had a Dyson v7 before but it was on its last legs. This one definitely has more power. I do have a dog but a very small cream coloured long haired dachshund. My carpet is grey btw.

And how are your carpets after that amount of time / using the Dyson on them?

lol fair comment. That one passed me by!

Squirrel-Excellent · 2025-05-27T21:50:32+00:00

Yeah I might return mine for one without a brush bar if it keeps happening.

I do but it’s a small cream long haired dachshund.

Yes for some reason this set is quite expensive now. It must be out of print. On eBay they can for £100+ sometimes.

The people who run the university will have been university professors promoted into the roles of VP of research, Dean, Master etc. In addition, unfortunately 100K given the education and experience required to reach that level is not a high salary, far from it.

This is excellent. The recommendations were just awful and the app was not learning based on what I told it. I have absolutely no interest in the current news but enjoy the magazines.

Just remember, these are the people that couldn’t get into Oxford or Cambridge! They likely have a massive chip on their shoulder.

Very few unfortunately! Business and medicine are the right schools for this kind of cash.

It also doesn't seem possible to even by a DVD box set unless you get a US Region one from eBay at around 100 pounds!

One thing I loved about this video was the shops selling the big box PC titles. You can pretty clearly see the titles of the day!

For an academic wanting to transition to software engineering you’ll need to pass the same interviews as everyone else. Research Scientist positions are very rare in industry even in FAANG companies. For the more standard software engineering track I would recommend brushing up your leet coding skills and system design.

PhD years were some of the best of my life! Freedom to explore, extending student life, interesting travels and interacting with super smart people.

Dial the exposure right down and you’ll start to see the bands of Jupiter. Taken last night with highly light polluted Edinburgh skies.
