Search is working fine, I just tried https://www.recipeninja.ai/search?name=lasagne

I get this search result https://www.recipeninja.ai/search?name=Anti-inflammatory

What browser are you using? Voice mode or typing?

Then you handle those function calls in your javascript.

``` if (function_name === 'search_recipes') { const searchParams = new URLSearchParams();

      if (args.name) searchParams.set('name', args.name);
      if (args.difficulty) searchParams.set('difficulty', formatDifficulty(args.difficulty));
      if (args.min_duration) searchParams.set('minDuration', args.min_duration.toString());
      if (args.max_duration) searchParams.set('maxDuration', args.max_duration.toString());
      if (args.tag) searchParams.set('tag', args.tag);
      
      // Handle ingredients array correctly - the search page expects ingredients[]
      if (args.ingredients && args.ingredients.length > 0) {
        // Clear any existing ingredients
        searchParams.delete('ingredients[]');
        
        // Add each ingredient individually with the correct array notation
        args.ingredients.forEach((ingredient: string) => {
          searchParams.append('ingredients[]', ingredient);
        });
      }
      
      const queryString = searchParams.toString();
      const url = queryString ? `/search?${queryString}` : '/search';
      
      navigate(url);
      return;
    }
    
    // start_cooking function
    if (function_name === 'start_cooking') {
      // First check if we have an onStartCooking callback registered
      if (callbacksRef.current.onStartCooking) {
        callbacksRef.current.onStartCooking();
        return;
      }
    }

AFAIK, they strictly follow the speed limit, which feels too slow when everyone else is speeding.

The driver is often on a call for the entire journey, which is annoying.

It’s often much colder or warmer than I’d ideally like.

An extreme case, but I once had a driver stop a ride, jump out of the car and pull the driver out of the car in front. They proceeded to have a fist fight. The other guy had honked at him for blocking the road or something.

I’d much prefer a computer to drive me around.

Waymos are one of the first things that my visitors to SF want to try. It feels like living in a science-fiction future.

The ride and navigation feels very smooth - after the novelty of having no driver in the front seat wears off, you become accustomed to the experience surprisingly quickly. In comparison, I found the Cruise driving experience pretty uncomfortable and stress-inducing.

The app and software inside the vehicle is really well-designed. Which is unusual for a google consumer product!

And my female friends, in particular, far prefer Waymo to Uber or Lyft because they don’t have to engage with a creepy driver trying to hit on them.

I, for one, welcome our new self-driving overlords.

The lowest valuation I've paid was £3m, and this happened exactly once.

My mean valuation for seed is around £8-10m.

It tops out at around £20m.

Perhaps my sample is skewed. Not many of the companies I'm investing in use SeedLegals. Investors often insist they use actual lawyers.

More commonly, you develop a bad reputation in the VC community, which is very close-knit. Next time you come to raise money, this can hurt.

It seems like fortnightly or monthly gets the same impact with 25-50% effort.

But it's true that we're intending to stay relatively balance-sheet light - the aim is to offer a "financial hub", plugging in third-party products to a central current account (or "checking account" for our US friends).

(I'm the CEO of Monzo)

And Dara, new CEO: "Going forward, it’s critical that we act with integrity in everything we do, and learn how to be a better partner to every city we operate in. That doesn’t mean abandoning our principles—we will vigorously appeal TfL’s decision—but rather building trust through our actions and our behavior. In doing so, we will show that Uber is not just a really great product, but a really great company that is meaningfully contributing to society, beyond its business and its bottom line."

However, I also suspect that Uber hasn't been as co-operative as TfL would like on several issues mentioned, and so this feels like a warning shot to get them to be better corporate citizen. Quote from an MP; "No company, however big and powerful, will be allowed to flout our laws and regulations."

Uber could have reacted by saying "we acknowledge our shortfallings, and we'll work closely with TfL and the Mayor of London to ensure we put passenger safety first. We hope to avoid any interruption in service and continue to play a valuable part in London's diverse and effective public transportation system."

Instead, they took a typically Travis-ish stance and said "Screw you, people love us because we're cheaper, we'll fight this and we'll win," without any acknowledgment of their failings.

Perhaps new leadership can change this approach.

This would be valuable to us.

10 apples are worth $100. 90 oranges are not therefore worth $900.

This is categorically incorrect.

Damages for breach of contract are supposed to put you back in the position you'd have been in had the contract been performed. It's not related to the value of the consideration.

Consideration is one of the things needed to make a contract binding in English law (along with offer & acceptance, and "intention to create legal relations").

Jurists still debate the rationale for consideration, but the best answer I've found is that contract in English law is seen as an exchange or a “bargain”. There is no gratuitous contract, donations are not contractual right.

By comparison, a contract under French law is based on "consent of the parties" and the theory of individual autonomy. There's no requirement for consideration.

In a "mutual NDA", consideration is easy to find; each party agrees not to disclose confidential information disclosed by the counterparty.

Another way to make an agreement binding without consideration is to sign it as a deed.

There was a palpable shift from "prioritise growth above all else" to "let's think about about unit economics".
