The point is people don’t want more foreigners here. That this might be netted off by pensioners moving to Spain is irrelevant to them.

Proposal: Gov offers to attach a 0% perpetual mortgage to high value properties. The proceeds of which are donated to HMRC, but the principal may be used to offset the property value for tax purposes.
Any takers, Mumsnet??

First version of chat GPT was such a gift for learning by doing for code. It was good but it always made mistakes. You feed in its latest draft, run, feed back the error...100 repetitions later and you've accidentally learned something.
Now is like walking round France using google translate.

My personal concern, as a quant trader (not a programmer) turned algo trader, is that it's almost too good. Becoming easy to get lazy & not rigorously test if it has actually implemented what I want, before applying to my live account.

Also am I wrong in thinking they massively pumped up usage for the same plan? Only quibble with Anthropic before was you had to pay up for it.

Opus 4.5 is the biggest step up for coding I think since the very early days of AI.
I only use chat GPT for general queries now simply because it’s faster.

Even less alarmingly it’s allowing yourself to dabble at a variety of the bad stuff, but never overindulge on one of them,

Injecting a marinade is largely a waste of time. Most of the flavours can’t permeate across the meat. Most likely you just make it more salty.
