Snagged complete set of of Marshall Cavendish #CarMaintenance and #Motoring partwork "On The Road" from 1978-1981 (in 10 binders)
If you are #GenX you may remember your dad buying at least some of these if he was into #cars (although to get the entire partwork would have cost about £300 (2026 money) in total, so relatively few people actually got whole set of 140)
These were sold not only in #UK but across #Commonwealth countries where folk drive on the left, one cool thing is all units are #metric first (with Imperial equivalents added afterwards)
Fair play to the previous owner, it looks like they did definitely make use of the section on changing #HeadGasket in #BritishLeyland engine 😁

My government's favourite trick for gaming inflation numbers (also practiced by many other nations) is omitting "highly volatile" elements from the calculations. Specifically, food and energy.
Because the average person spends basically none of their money on those two items, right? And the prices of those shoot up crazily, but their prices also drop like a stone the next month, making the consumer come out even, right?
Goodhart's Law, etc, etc.

Goodhart’s Law in action 🙄:

"Well, sure, all our sandwiches now come with shit. Shit is a very popular topping with our customers, so we thought we'd make it easy for all of you to get what you want. We determined it was too confusing for customers if some sandwiches came with shit, and some didn't, so we simplified our menu to make sure you could find exactly what you need. No, you can't order a sandwich 'but hold the shit'. After all, if you're that dead-set against eating shit, you can just order your sandwich and then eat around the shit."
This is a post about #Microsoft and #Google.
