And the rest you squander. (RIP George Best).

Blimey. This surprised me. But I see Labour also run one. I suspect more influential is gambling industry lobbying and sinecures.

Ummm, whose that?

Are they serious when so much of training was on illegally acquired data? Live by the sword, die by the sword.

Is this a new record for enshittification?

Eh? The more standard view is that Clegg put in place efforts to ward off regulation as long as possible…he’s as popular as Jimmy Savile in the UK.

Err…becuase we speak Scottish not English.

I guess you have to turn it on. Might be handy for things like electrician courses, DIY jobs, maths homework etc. Maybe one day even surgery!

Well done. This is precisely what the future will look like. I’ve hacked together my own version of this using N8N whereby I feed in tasks via text or photo through telegram and it…

Nice. I can see a version of this working for ever more niche areas. Curated reading lists for areas of interest. At which point a curated list of curated lists becomes viable!

Great idea! May I ask what the information source is?

Thanks. V helpful. Especially the point about dopamine hits.

Very interesting. Could become a geopolitical and trade football between Europe and US. Tariffs anyone? Ultimately it’s a question of power: will Europe allow its citizens to be pr…

My apologies. By available carbon budget, I meant the carbon we can burn before we exceed 1.5 degrees, or 2 degrees etc.

This was a great positive start to the day. Thanks whoever posted that. One point curious in its omission is whether the growth of renewables outpaces the depletion of our carbon b…

I sometimes think of the internet as an alternative dimension: as mind space; it was Terra Nova and speculators rode in to grab the available real estate. But as the experience als…
