Off peak train tickets
if I buy an off peak train ticket and miss the train due to a flight delay, can I take a different off peak train on the same day?

Karen Hao on small AI in the Guardian
Karen Hao has been covering OpenAI since well before almost anyone had heard of them. Her book, Empire of AI is excellent. And, as Ed has pointed out, she covered nearly everything Farrow covered years ago (I like Farrow, but wish he'd credit her more).
One of the most interesting points in her book, and in this article, is that scaling is not necessarily the be-all, end-all of AI. This resonates with me as a librarian. I see people over and over trying to use AI when another, less resource intensive tool would be more suitable to the task - more reliable, faster, etc.
This is a solid op ed if you haven't read Hao's book, or if you enjoyed it. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/commentisfree/2026/may/14/elon-musk-sam-altman-ai-feud

Via the FT:
"Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella put the change down to the growing use of AI agents, most notably for coding. Microsoft itself has struggled to show its huge base of white-collar workers is ready for AI. It revealed earlier this year that only about 3 per cent of paying customers for its productivity tools had also chosen to pay for its Copilot AI service. This quarter, however, it said the number of Copilot users had risen a third. According to Nadella, agent-like capabilities are making the service more useful."
One of the commenters pointed out the "risen a third" means going from 3 to 4%. Am I missing something?

Hello,
I like to take my children outside and then sometimes buy a family lunch after.
What are the best parks/playgrounds around town (20 minutes max from the city center) with a great lunch/brunch spot nearby? And please name the lunch spot.
There are lots of lists of great parks, but I don't know of any that include lunch recos for after 😉
