I think this is pretty solid advice for people who want to get an app to market fast and cost effectively.

As I hear Johnson justify his rule-breaking by claiming he was working really hard, I can't help thinking of all the NHS staff who worked all hours, in difficult and dangerous conditions and didn't break the rules he made.

Can't help but think that if Google or Apple really cared about what the app stores claim they protect consumers from, then they'd provide insurance to consumers to cover consumer's losses from bad apps. It seems they don't, they claim all these level of protection, and discriminate on certain types of apps, yet don't back there actual message.

A rather dangerous failure mode. It came apart when I unplugged it. I didn't notice anything wrong until I went to pack it away.

@alex that is the worst failure mode I've ever seen for a UK plug. I probably passes regulations but probably should not.

I wish more people understood that "I want the computer to generate a natural language text that sounds like a plausible answer to a question about x" and "I want the computer to answer a question about x" are two very different problems.
