Google is effectively killing off early Nest thermostats, that’s not great consumer wise, but I’ve never understood the need for them anyway. If your house is well insulated it’s cheaper and more efficient to set a temperature and let your thermostat regulate when to heat or not.

Just over a year ago my iPad Pro died. I replaced it with a new one but debated getting a new Mac instead. I wish I’d bought the Mac.

Playing with Perplexities Mac app I asked it what the weather was. It knew where I lived and gave it to me in a nice card. I asked Siri and for some reason it gave me the weather in Texas…

This MacSparky video showing the Perplexity voice assistant embarrasing Siri is quite impressive. Apple still has time on it’s side to catch up, but I have wondered why they didn’t look to buy something like Perplexity to help them catch up.

It baffles me that none of the AI products have created an app like OpenAI have for macOS. It’s the only reason I use ChatGPT over all the others. There may be better services, but ChatGPT has productised their offering better than anyone else.

“But the angel said to the women, “Don’t be afraid. I know you are looking for Yeshua, who was executed on the stake. He is not here, because he has been raised — just as he said! Come and look at the place where he lay.”

He is risen!

In my work I have to generate a lot of fake data to populate designs, most of the time these have to look like real schools with student data that’s realistic. I used to use Harry Potter characters, but I’ve started to build my own fictional school with houses and key characters. It’s quite fun.

I finished reading: Getting Things Done by David Allen 📚

Today’s coffee is the last dose of an experimental lot from Colombia. It’s co-fermented with peach and smells amazing. ☕️

I really hate Outlook. It’s such a cludgy application, nothing quite works properly and what should be easy (adding a calendar of UK holiday dates) is down right impossible to find.
