@NoodlesTech @jitbit So as ever, less IT people, more in the legal team!

I've been mostly shitting on AI these days (also sick of the "built 15 apps in 15 minutes" crowd), but Claud just did something wild for me, a project that would otherwise take MONTHS.
Had it help me rip out our entire search engine (we're talking millions and millions of records) and migrate it from SQL "full-text search" to a small embedded, in-process Lucene port (Lucene is what powers Elasticsearch under the hood).
Our app has thousands of tenants with millions of tickets - the search went from 7-8 seconds down to fucking milliseconds.
The rewrite was the easy part though. The real work was all the one-off CLI tooling for index rebuilding, compaction, deduplication, gradual deploy... Literally dozens of tools. Also prep-work, tech-stack deciding, risk analysis, benchmarking, planning...
The reindexing job itself ran for 39 HOURS STRAIGHT, reporting nice progress graphs and auto-fixing errors as it went. It just finished and eberything checks out
not gonna turn into one of those AI evangelists, but claude saved me weeks of the most tedious infrastructure grind imaginable. And I've been trying to approach this project for literally YEARS.

That's an interesting and I talk to business leaders and IT functions about this. One approach is to have API gateways that can 'fail over' to different providers. E.g. Amazon Bedrock failing over to Azure for example. Still a degree of vulnerability in terms of, e.g. CloudFlare, but some mitigation strategies are available.

@NoodlesTech @jitbit Random question.
How is business continuty maintained if the AI agent is not available?
I've not really had an answer to this one yet.

@PositivFuturist What's truly galling, and I'm sure you'll have noticed this, as I did, that it gets to the point where for every £1 extra you get to take home from a pay increment, HMRC gets £1.50 exta. Bunch of thieving bastards.

A British woman has slaved as a bus driver for 20 years—just scraping by to pay her rent.
Her new neighbour arrived yesterday, speaks no English, and has been handed a three-bedroom flat completely free—courtesy of taxpayer money.
This isn't compassion. It's calculated: the left imports voters, houses them ahead of hardworking citizens, and expects their ballots in return at the next election.
Politicians dangle free homes and benefits as the price for loyalty in the ballot box. Meanwhile, Brits who followed every rule, paid taxes for decades, and built the country get pushed to the back of the queue.
How much longer can this last before the anger boils over—and the votes swing hard against the very party that engineered it?

@criticalhitsTV @leonardaisfunE The governance structure for pretty much the entire Anglosphere is entirely feminised.
English
@leonardaisfunE Yet the German far right is now a lesbian woman married to an immigrant. There is no far right in Europe at the moment. It's entirely feminised

@genuine_ersatz @leonardaisfunE Not all whites are race traitors, but all race traitors are white. GFY.

@leonardaisfunE 100% of people who started WWI are white males.
100% of people who started WWII are white males.
100% of US Presidents who owned slaves are white males.
95% of people who molested girls on Epstein's Island are white males.

@leonardaisfunE Looks like the Germans are going to throw of their 'diversity' chains before the British. You love to see it. We just need one country to kickstart the push back, then surely other countries will follow.

Success is measured by how little “diversity” you see

@PaulGoldEagle Oh yes you do.
Sorry, couldn't resist. Interesting posts on your timeline, definitely worth a follow - so I did.

📺 Every Brit should watch Kenneth Clark’s *Civilisation* to grasp just how urgent our situation is.
From the fall of Rome to the birth of modern Europe, he shows how Western civilisation rose and how easily it could be lost.
Thirteen episodes, eleven hours long, but worth every single minute.

@RanTeeThree That account is so strange, either a hack or a pure shift to monetisation.

Just a vile, hate-filled windbag inviting Iran to bomb a UK town because she hates the people that lives there. Let that sink in, she wants British people dead.

@CommodoreLad @mr_james_c Basically ... the entire economy, they're f'cking salting the Earth. C'nts.

@mr_james_c @NoodlesTech Basically... "Industry".... Asshats, the lot of them.
English
It's odd that the "Thatcher is evil because she destroyed industrial jobs in Northern England" people seem to be very very quiet about Miliband and Labour doing *exactly the same thing* to Britain's oil and gas industry, steel industry, petrochemicals industry, farming, pottery industry, hospitality industry... basically any industry that uses electricity.
