@nationalrailenq Hi my full journey is Tottenham Hale to Kings Lynn (with my bike) with Great Northern. I think my ticket is London terminals but not 100% sure.

@nationalrailenq I think my ticket is London Terminals but I bought using Tottenham Hale as the station.

@ALBACapMgmt This is the best tariff meme I’ve seen so far. Brilliant.

@paulg @Noahpinion I’ve always believed the first one 🤯

@AlanLevinovitz I live in Europe and have type one diabetes. When I travel to the US, the food is objectively worse. Even at Trader Joe’s I can’t eat the bread. Sugar and ultra processed ingredients are higher in similar US foods than they are in Europe.

@Hertz - loving our Opel Astra from Geneva. We can access the electric plug via the flap but the flap for access to the fuel cap doesn’t work. It should be a very simple push to gain access. Swiss customer service number isn’t being answered. Please help!

@IliaBouchouev Great discussion on carry!

[Alex @castletoncollin]

@jamesdoble Haha - well tell it to wish clients Happy Christmas for a start! Also are you trolling your clients? Obviously they should all have been selling bonds in 2022.

Until Peter makes an open source one I’ll pay. It’s too good to miss when the paywall goes up.

[Peter Wang 🦋 @pwang]

@chrisalbon We’ll make an open source one

I don't know who needs to hear this, but #ChatGPT is the most incredible tool I can remember experiencing. Feels like a pivotal moment in history. Well done @OpenAI. After a few days use I can barely imagine life without it.

@feelthebyrn1 Add yoghurt and fermented foods like kimchi (see eg @timspector’s work on gut health). Controversial on twitter but cut meat out or to minimum (eg @davidasinclair’s work on longevity and health span).

@kittysquiddy hmm this is tricky - I've locked my account (I think) but most won't be able to read replies. And there is a cost to many for going private. Agree with another user that discord would be better.

@HughFW @rivercottage We get a local organic veg bag. Contents are as local as possible and suppliers pairs a fair wage. We pick up from a collection point and veg is in recycled bags. I’m convinced it’s sustainable but that said this was the next tweet in my feed after yours: https://t.co/5A6zT6RjyR

[Max Roser @MaxCRoser]

If you want to reduce your carbon footprint, focus on what you eat, not whether your food is local.

The chart shows why: transport tends to account for only a small share of greenhouse gas emissions — the differences between different food choices are much larger.

[Alex @castletoncollin]

@kittysquiddy to retain exposure. Some wouldn’t have been able to meet these calls and would have been forcibly delevered only have to been re-levered at lower rates for a very large opportunity loss.

[Alex @castletoncollin]

@kittysquiddy I’m sure that’s true in aggregate. If smaller funds were doing LDI via pooled vehicles they may have taken big losses after the mini budget. There were/are products similar to inverse ETFs which target leverage (eg 3x) and these were asking clients for large margin calls in order

@Rainmaker1973 On a similar theme - this machine that makes music out of marbles is also incredible! https://t.co/da9DcMYsTo @wintergatan

@dwrowland Thanks - will listen to this. I’ve now started nasal breathing for all my easy training and can sustain a little above aerobic threshold. Amongst the claimed benefits is higher tolerance to CO2 in the blood and less need to breath - saving energy on breathing.
