I am almost certainly eligible for PIP (see the wheelchair in my header pic, amongst other disabilities). But I have never applied for it, even when I have been very poor, because I am terrified of being subjected to this level of surveillance. I preferred to eat cornflakes and keep the heating off.
The guy's literally got one leg, but that's apparently one too many for the DWP to consider him disabled www.mirror.co.uk/money/dwp-fi...

Work is now offering AI training that talks about how to use AI responsibly and ethically.
That is not a thing.
This is not possible.
That is not what that word means.
Coming next: probably my autism diagnosis idk

Pointed out by my friend @carloshasanax.bsky.social . There's something weird and unsettling about a fairly homogeneous culture spread out across Europe that then collapses into an orgy of genocide.

Sooo anyone else got an internet outage in West Yorkshire, which their provider blames on OpenReach? We haven't found anyone else so far and not a single status page mentions a thing, but Zen Internet's help line (before it closed) blamed an OpenReach fuck-up. Also said that it'd be fixed in 30 min.

The last adult came off the production line in 1980, it was decided that was what was best for the economy.
you're not an adult when you're 18.
you're not an adult when you're 21.
you're not an adult in your thirties, even.
nobody has ever been an adult.

Octopus have supplied us with an "upgraded" home smart meter.
It has no display, needs plugging in, and you need to use their app. It requires location sharing.
It can only connect to 2.4 GHz networks and requires your phone to be connected to the same.
Upgrade for whom, exactly?

Omg yes.
QA came to me today saying "your code isn't doing the thing."
He was testing on an employee flagged as a director. I had double checked yesterday, in writing, in a chat with him and the PO, that it shouldn't apply to directors.
This took a call and a screen share. Fml

Employers are always handwringing about autism accommodations in the workplace and I gotta tell you: ear defenders and quiet workstations are the least of your problems. What autistic people really need is *whispers* for other people to do their actual jobs.

The BBC needs someone experienced enough to run a huge media org, and willing to take a job with no security. They need to know the BBC well enough to do the job, but not be an “insider”. They need to somehow be acceptable to a Lab government but also right-wing papers.
