Don't Work Around the Software
A handler spent months adding one line to an invoice by hand. The missing night is not the interesting part. The Agency reports on the minute nobody notices any more, and states its position on what should happen to it.

Company news, weekly update
The Humans Have Been Given a Supercomputer. It Is for a Spaniel.
MyPetSitter has been awarded 4,000 GPU-hours on Isambard-AI — the UK’s national AI supercomputer in Bristol — by UKRI’s AI Research Resource, to build Gaia: a small language model for pet-care professionals that cites its sources, defers to the authority, and sends clinical questions to a vet. In development: the research has not started yet.

Director's Statement
Serious announcement
Don't Work Around the Software
A workaround does not stay a workaround. Within about three months it stops being a repair and becomes how the job is done — taught to new staff as though it were the work. That is why it has to be reported before it goes comfortable: by then it is invisible to the only person who can see it.

Director's Statement: The Ecosystem
One platform, many roles. Businesses. Their staff. Their clients. Their clients' pets. And the communities all of them belong to.
