I got ChatGPT to agree that Babylon 5 is a retelling of Tom & Jerry. Spoiler Warning: contains spoilers for Babylon 5 and Tom & Jerry

Forgot to add: the point was to show that LLM do not actually provide any insight. The idea that Babylon 5 is a retelling of Tom & Jerry is absurd, if you are using ChatGPT to come up with your material, it will likely just be an echo chamber, or use someone else's work.

It's good to know that Netflix can follow up its popular series "The Crown" with the sequel "The Clown" #liztruss #borisjohnson

Replying to @ScarbsTech
@ScarbsTech if anyone can answer this, it's you. I remember an article from the Button/Hamilton days that said McLaren were forbidden from ever using some braking tech they learned from SpyGate and this made the McLaren have a different braking characteristic to other cars.

Given Danny Ric's driving style is very brake dependent (and assuming my memory is correct, and McLaren still can't use the tech) could this be part of the reason he's never gelled with either McLaren car?

It's only a matter of time before Liz Truss suggests fixing Britain's energy price crisis by renaming energy meters to energy yards: a blow to EU red tape and return to British values! And people will buy it.

If Twitter starts crashing a lot you will know it's because Elon Musk transferred over the Tesla Autopilot engineers.

If a form gives me the opportunity of a completely custom input field the web engineer in me likes to test how much sanitising it's doing, and @standupmaths Humble Pi accepted my name in katakana. If it appears as 7 square boxes it will be my own fault, but also kind of on topic.
I live in Japan. Masking, including outdoors, is essentially 95%+ with indoors at 99%+. There are virtually no densely packed environments, and ventilation is good. Nearly everyone understands that it's a predominantly airborne spread virus. There have been zero lockdowns.

Just as a further update, as many have been reading this tweet, the Japanese Government punished this back in 2020 as the five guidelines to follow to help reduce the spread. From my own experience, people still try to follow them (although not as strictly as at the start)

Now that Boris Johnson has arrived in Ukraine, Russia is now arming its soldiers with cakes. #BorisJohnson #AmbushedByCake
At this point, I expect Boris Johnson to cover all his bases by claiming he is leader of the "Conservative Work Event" #PartyGate #BorisJohnson

In computer science, most people think the smallest variable type is a bit, which can have two states: true or false. In actuality, the smallest variable type is the Boris Johnson, as no matter what it states, it's never true. #DowningStreetParties

I use 0.5 as my circle constant after @standupmaths said he favoured pi over tau.
