Holy shit double glazing is such a game changer. In my old house I probably would've run the heat pump on-and-off from April, and pretty consistently from May through Aug. So far in my double-glazed new house I haven't turned the heat pump on once this year.

This is why rental WOFs are good policy. Having a better insulated house has probably saved me hundreds already in just a few months. Landlords with cold rentals are actively making you poorer than you need to be.

I came across a a Sci Fi serial somebody started 6 years ago about an emergent meta-consciousness generated by two people's brains accidentally being linked through brain interface chips. They abandoned it after 3 instalments but I'm obsessed with the concept. Does anyone have similar media recs?

I would love to read/watch anything that more fully explores a similar territory. I'm specifically interested in the idea of two human brains connecting, and the two individuals suddenly become discrete 'limbs' of a new emergent consciousness.

I just got an email from Xero's CEO with the subject line: 'A Personal Apology' . I opened it fully expecting a mea culpa about how Rod Drury was allowed to victimise female employees but instead it was some dross about a platform issue I hadn't even noticed. Talk about tone deaf!

Thanks Sukhinder. Now how about a public apology from Xero for its complicity at the board and exec level in covering up Rod Drury's predatory behaviour?
