People love to slate Cov, but the "concrete wasteland" meme is dead wrong. If you actually look around, this city is low-key brilliant to live in.

​The Ring Road is pure golden. While people in Birmingham spend 45 minutes trying to get to their destination, you can zip into the city centre or get out to the countryside in minutes.

​Want to visit London, Manchester, Wales, or Cornwall? You're right in the middle of the country. An hour train to Euston without paying London rent prices.

​ Big regeneration is happening, the independent scene at FarGo Village is thriving, and the cov market is still elite.

​

Between the waterpark at The Wave, huge green spaces like War Memorial Park, and the multi-cultural vibe the huge student population brings, there’s always something going on.

​It’s cheap, central, practical, and getting better every year. Stop the hate—Coventry is sound.

Been chipping away at this for a while and looking back it's a lot more than I realized.

I work in IT. At this point AI handles logging into our internal systems and doing stuff on its own — no me clicking around. It's hooked into our password manager, our CRM, our RMM, antivirus, and monitoring systems, plus a handful of other tools we run day to day. All of that is just... linked in now.

I've also got a second brain set up that the AI links into, so it has context on all my work and customers going in.

What's actually changed my day-to-day: I still do some of the small stuff myself, since it burns too many tokens to spin up a whole process for a two-minute task. But I've stopped doing a lot of the big stuff. I just point it at what needs doing and let it run. My job now is mostly deciding what to hand off and checking the output.

Still feels a little surreal watching it work through things I used to do by hand every day.

Anyone else at this point? Curious what your stack looks like.
