@VodafoneUK my Vodafone broadband has been down since 3pm today.

@MalcolmBrabant Done 👍🏼

Got to give it to the GitHub team.

While most "AI developer tools" are aiming for a workflow that takes a spec and (much later) generates code (with no developer input): GitHub created a developer-driven, AI-assisted, workflow.

The developer is in control, the full cycle:

@peeches1976 @parcelforce The same happened to me

[Kai Hilton-Jones @kai_hj]

@parcelforce Second day in a row that my parcel was out for delivery but then “returned to depot” after 6pm. Someone was in both days. This is getting tiresome. DPD delivered a couple of other parcels on time, as always.

@VodafoneUK I spoke to one of your advisors and the issue is with CityFibre. It is apparently affecting many of your customers. Your advisor has reported this to CityFibre.

[Kai Hilton-Jones @kai_hj]

@VodafoneUK Are there any broadband issues in Reading UK this morning? I’m seeing large latencies and only 66 kbps speeds on Fibre

[Kai Hilton-Jones @kai_hj]

Appears to be an issue with @CityFibre

This is awesome and super generous in terms of entitlements. Congrats to the fine folks inside of @github who are making this happen!

@railair Hi Tamsin. Terminal 5 to Reading. Thanks

[Kai Hilton-Jones @kai_hj]

@railair When is the next one please?

[Kai Hilton-Jones @kai_hj]

The last few times I have booked a taxi via @FreeNow_UK, drivers have cancelled on me last minute. Not a great service. It needs to be more reliable. I’ve gone back to the old fashioned way of booking via phone.

@martinwoodward @alexellisuk Took me a while to learn to interpret the readings correctly. Definitely a bit of an art. Or maybe I’ve just been lucky! I had the cheaper Bosch first and gave up on it.

[Kai Hilton-Jones @kai_hj]

@martinwoodward @alexellisuk I have the same Bosch Pro and it hasn’t let me down yet.

@dayoneapp I’m getting this error when trying to sign into my Premium account. Any ideas?

[Kai Hendry @kaihendry]

Github issues and Jira are not alike at all. For example NO ONE reads Jira comments. It's description / top post or bust.
