The ONS is struggling to account for prices at the checkout that are reduced by loyalty schemes such as Tesco Clubcard;
this matters because if such data had been included (as ONS has done for one month last year) Consumer Price Inflation would have been 2.8% not the reported 3.1%.
I am sceptical that the BoE really shapes its policy on the basis of headline rates of inflation, but still this overstatement may have impacted interest rate decisions!

Well, that's sort of the point, Tesco which has a major part of the supermarket sector also has a high take up of their loyalty scheme - when taken along with other supermarkets' schemes, this is not an insignificant segment of consumers, it mat account for over half of them....
So those prices are actually 'enjoyed' quite widely

I don’t really like supportive tooling for writing code. I work in vim and prefer bazel (with occasional support from a language server client for things like large scale renames).
I’m a reasonable person I swear to god. I know that’s just a preference, my coworkers who prefer IDEs or whatever are equally valid, and I try to help them where I can. If they say they can’t use generated files because they don’t autocomplete with their IDE, or if they want 4 repos instead of 1 because they can’t have multiple languages at once, I’m cool with that, really, I try to be accommodating, I try to help where I can.
that said, my coworker who writes his code with chatgpt is just not working out for me. I mean for one thing the code is just a mess: meaningless parameters passed everywhere, error checks that can never trigger because the implementations of the interfaces don’t throw the errors that are being checked.
but the main problem is that it’s not *designed* at all. every single one of these things is like Alton Brown used to say about unitaskers. this code passes the (generated) unit tests and that’s it. trying to use it for anything that it wasn’t explicitly and specifically designed and tested for is like trying to use a pork puller bear claw when what you want is a fork.
it’s not extensible, it’s not maintainable, if you want to add a parameter or tweak an implementation detail the only reasonable call is to rewrite it from scratch.
And what’s so frustrating about that is that it LOOKS fine at a glance. It even looks fine in code review, one chunk at a time!

I have said this in a while ... Jk Rowling, is trans
She has the ugliest penis i have never seen
But in all truth, she is trans, she wrote under a male name, she has had a lot of gender affirming surgery and just look at her and what she does, she lives in denial
Hugz & xXx
In her last gloating after making people's lives more miserable she is cosplaying a very stereotypically male cis man.
(Also cosplaying being smart, but let's not go there for now.)

Remember the “sleeping giant” ascribed to Admiral Yamamoto in the wake of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor? Something like: “I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant.”
