Hello @se_railway! I am sure you remember my fall with my guide dog into the tracks of #NewEltham station because Of missing tactile paving in 2012: #railway #a11y
did fall on train track with @HappyGuidedog this morning. I'm mostly OK but Mercer screamed a lot, brought him for check-up into hospital.

This is an absolute disgrace. Children’s development is very much linked to the provision of a decent wheelchair. And people won’t get to work without one. Wheelchair provision isn’t a charity project. It’s a core task of the health system. theguardian.com/society/2026…

How it works: for each function in CPython 3.15.2, an agent writes a Lean model that mirrors the C or Python source. The model runs against python3 on 50,000+ generated inputs until they agree. Then it proves properties about it, and a second agent reviews every function.

Whenever I travel from New Eltham (not exactly a major station), there’s more or less always someone else who needs the ramp. Today the second person left and a third wheelchair user boarded. There are so many people using ramps. Level boarding is so needed.

Same experience in Frankfurt as in Berlin. Staff flabbergasted that I want to travel spontaneously from the airport to the city centre without booking assistance. Me flabbergasted about the level of deeply ingrained ableism.

I’m fed up with certain politicians saying we need to “respect” the result of the 2016 Brexit referendum.
A decision by a narrow majority 10yrs ago that turned out to be a disaster does not have to be respected.
If a democracy cannot change its mind it ceases to be a democracy.

Q3 2026 was the first quarter ever in the EU where battery electric vehicles outsold pure petrol cars
Over 700k BEVs were sold between July and September, a staggering 64% increase over Q3 2025

@barcelohoteles I just want to let you know you just lost my two-week holiday because you make it so difficult to book wheelchair accessible rooms (and charge more) that we will go somewhere else. Disabled people are a loyal customer group if you treat them well. Just saying.

“MUST have registered for a Nimbus Disability Access Card.”
Why, @YorkBarbican?
Disabled people have rights under the Equality Act 2010. Accessibility is a legal duty, not a membership scheme.

EVs are not a "rich" country phenomenon at all anymore
Roughly 30% of new car sales in Indonesia are already fully battery electric.
Oil importing countries across the globe are making the sensible choice of moving away from oil dependency in the transport sector.
