Everybody talks about Github CoPilot. Fewer sing the praises of Github FlightAttendant, who just served me a delicious cup of coffee!

Microsoft researchers have documented what they call a “triple peak” phenomenon in which workers’ keyboard activity spikes in the morning and afternoon, then a third time around 10 p.m. The tech giant predicts this pattern is here to stay.

@thisismyglasgow As a random American, I've always wondered why it's Glasgow and not Glazgow.

In a hockey game, if you just stand still in the middle, probably eventually the puck will arrive.

@mimsical @WSJ I like to contrast this week's column with this earlier (in WSJ) opinion: https://www.wsj.com/articles/elon-musk-not-killing-twitter-ad-revenue-cut-staff-profit-censorship-hate-speech-social-media-37a50e54 (or, on twitter, this methodological claim https://twitter.com/mattschnuck/status/1590732559029194752)

@freemo So, so witty.

I never understood self-expression by gifs.

@guan Google news returns different results for Bulgari vs Bvlgari, though substantially the same underlying news. Appears there is a quiet style/spelling/usage conflict.

@guan I am still mourning the passing of the Edison.

@mimsical In a speech he gave in 1984, Ronald Reagan told the story of a young man named Thomas Edison who, after failing at his first 1,000 attempts to invent a light bulb, said, "I have not failed. I've just found 1,000 ways that won't work." Reagan used this story to illustrate the American spirit of innovation and perseverance. He said that America is a country where anyone can achieve their dreams, no matter how many times they fail along the way.

Mike Lindell just needs to fail 999 more times.

@asymco Very very rarely do I disagree with Horace. Today is that exception. (No ill will intended; disagreement about musical choice is highly personal.)

@AP Which came first, the lab or the chicken?
