@tomwhoscontrary Oh yes – @ianrohdebell and I have stories about this. Specifically about date parsing code that mysteriously failed in August and September, and on the 8th and 9th of any month 🤦‍♂️

@gsuite @mbrix FWIW the actual calendar integration is working fine (I can ask "what's on my calendar today?" ‒ it's just setting reminders via Assistant that has broken.

[Stephen Lewis @stegro]

@gsuite @mbrix I've been on the beta for a while, and this has also stopped working for me. The email I got about enrolment is from a 'noreply' address ‒ do you have any ideas about how to get in touch with the Calendar Beta team?

[Stephen Lewis @stegro]

@googlenesthelp All sorted now - thanks for your help!

[Stephen Lewis @stegro]

@googlenesthelp @brooasaurus Same here too - Farsight weather has always worked fine, but yesterday it started showing "Can't get the weather at the moment".

[Stephen Lewis @stegro]

@thameswater Yep - the graph looks right, but when I show in a table it comes out like that. Thanks for looking into it 👍

[Stephen Lewis @stegro]

@thameswater this doesn't look quite right – it would probably be improved if the readings were sorted by date (with no consumption shown next to the oldest reading) 😂

This is hilarious

@jgrahamc Vengeful consistency in action.

@tomscott Humans are weird. I had a similar thing when someone fell between tube train and platform: I banged on the driver's door rather than using the (incredibly obvious) emergency alarm.

@dan_abramov @tony_breu for medical things that are always interesting, and sometimes accessible even to someone like me with a completely non-medical background.

@RealPeterLewis *Former* DExEU sec, surely?
