Tangentially related, have a look at Downpour, you might like it, if you like making ppt games! https://downpour.games/

Some of things it shows for Manchester are not buses (i.e. metrolink). Where does the data come from? Edit: also Flixbus or National Express are arguably not a bus services either
>Jubair and Flowers who both have autism, gained access to the data by tricking a phone help desk worker.

What does this have to do with anything in this article.

Langfuse, W&B, streamlit and reclaim are far from dead. This list doesn't make much sense

Not only I guess. I remember buying a minidisk instead of miniCD __by accident__ in the '00s in Russia. That was literally the only time I saw one in person.
Really fun.

Some timetables are very wrong unfortunately. e.g. there was no ferry from Plymouth to Santander at all (which I relied on). It'd be good to be able to see the timetables before I get to the station (otherwise, it's hard to plan)

Although, I don't think that Enso as a whole will work for me (I have a very different approach to writting); I love the idea of the coffee shop mode. Want to implement something like this for Obsidian now.

Yes. As for some other mobile OSs I'm not required to comply with whatever is on their official store, and can just install an app from a different source.

> foreign students (who they can charge more)

The amount of money the uni gets is the same. Overseas pay the full price, domestic students are subsidised and only pay £9k, but the uni gets it in full anyway. And, no, they still take overseas students (with remote studies it's not more difficult, than domestic ones). Imperial's Chem department even filled more places for 1st year than usual.
