I must assume that the announced consultation is being displayed down in the Whitehall cellars in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.”
Because I can't find it. The link in the Guardian article just loops back to itself and a DDG search doesn't find it either.
However presumably the government has send a link to all the relevant car industry lobby groups.

Question: Is matching fixed regexes with Back-references in P?
There is a persistent meme out there that matching regular expressions with back-references is NP-Hard. There is a post about this and the claim is repeated by Russ Cox so this is now part of recei…

I'm seeing an odd rendering (?) glitch on mastodon at the moment - *sometimes* when I mouse over someones @example link the text in that toot 'jumps' slightly and then goes back just for a few frames; I'm not sure if it's mastodon version, firefox, or the phase of the moon.

Lego City Undercover: The Chase Begins: (story) completed!
That was pretty short, really - though the fact I get to spend much more time on handheld games always makes them feel shorter. I've finished the story now, which ends with a good link to the Wii U game and Chase being sent abroad. I was concerned that this would mean that I couldn't continue to search the city, but straight after the credits I was back in Lego City.

The way ListenBrainz just died on me, when I wanted to share the MusicBrainz link of the song - hopefully the servers will be back up, soon.

FR, Apple voice dictation, are you drugs? Like how did you even get this out of “little two-pack”‽
I refuse to believe my pronunciation of “two pack” sounds like “Tupac”. Is it 2Pac related?
Otoh Siri consistently writes “Wyld” instead of “wild” so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

❝Criminalizing dissent isn’t a sideshow. It’s central to the plan. They want to stop you from taking to the streets in massive numbers if and when they take illegal actions to keep the Republican Party in power. They are using these bogus indictments to lay the foundation for the solution that Vice President JD Vance proposed for Minneapolis back in January — to invoke the Insurrection Act and send in tanks.❞

The secret cause of the industrial revolution
In 1688, England swept away the encrusted vetocracy that had held back economic growth for centuries. Could we do the same today?

Tech ain't that deep - and that's a problem | deadSimpleTech
With that in mind, it became fairly clear to me that the tech industry these days has a depth problem: as much as tech is becoming quite a bit more complex, it's also becoming shallower. Learning new things in tech these days, as often as not, simply doesn't give me the same feeling of satisfaction or achievement as learning or writing C back in the first years of my career did. Being effective in tech these days feels as though it's less about understanding than it is about memorising a big li…

The computer at the bottom of a canal
Somewhere at the bottom of the Forth and Clyde Canal, buried in the silt, there is a box of custom silicon that was right about almost everything. Back in 1988 a Scottish hi-fi company shipped a processor that checked the type and bounds of every memory access in hardware, garbage-collected its own heap in silicon, […]
