Christopher Fettes & Frances de la Tour in an extract from ‘Theatre School’ (1993), on the problem of inequality & access for people from working class backgrounds accessing the arts. As relevant now as then #acting #education #dramacentrelondon #workingclass #actors #actorslife
HUGE audition for me today. Not for the money or exposure but because of the sheer quality of the project. It’s the kind of thing people lucky enough to be part of will look back on in future years and sigh fondly. This is what this precarious path is all about.
OpenAI putting ads in chats is just grim news. Presumably chat history will be used for the targeting. Terrible move as it breaks a fundamental - the idea that a chat between you and a llm was ever a private space or that research might remain unbiased and solely evidence based.
Delighted the Assisted Dying Bill has been voted down. My uncle died recently in a holding ward because a place wasn’t even available in palliative care. Staff, I felt, couldn’t wait to stop feeding him and put him on end of life pathway to free up a bed.

This is a moment for deep reflection in Europe: a Fascist and pro Russian party wins a German election decisively.
In part Fascism is thriving because of the repeated failures to regulate the information landscape.
No better example than this Russian bot infested platform.

Very sad news. I loved his open heartedness and honesty. The kind of man you’d love to be friends with. What a career he had in football.
So disappointed with Tuchel. Such negativity when it really counted. Inviting Argentina and Messi onto you for twenty minutes as a tactic when you’re winning the game? Unforgivable. Go out trying to win it.
A very punitive move, post-Pentagon fall-out, to cause maximum damage before planned IPO because Anthropic chose ethical AI delivery.
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

.@OVOEnergy can you explain why my DD went £125 → £102 → £206 within a month? I’d built ~£330 credit, you refunded £200, and now you’ve doubled the DD again. Please share the calculation/usage forecast and review it. @ofgem @MartinSLewis @MoneySavingExp @WhichUK
Jessie J channeling Shirley Bassey whilst at the same time making Sinatra’s My Way all her own. Incredible performance! 👏 #Hootenany
This happened to me. I remember telling the housing officer that my dad had only died only two weeks before and that I’d lived in that house all my life. She responded by telling me she’d just evicted someone from their home who’d been living there 40 years!

Mental. Not so long back Netflix was 3 guys in a garage.
Netflix announces that it has acquired Warner Bros., including HBO Max and HBO, in a deal valued at $82.7 billion.
Franchises such as The Big Bang Theory, The Sopranos, Game of Thrones, The Wizard of Oz and the DC Universe are set to join Netflix as a result.
RIP 😢

Finally catching up with #CaneloVsCrawford. They call boxing the loneliest sport in the world. The belief in Crawford’s eyes on his ring walk towards the ring where he was going to meet another great of the sport and a ‘killer’ three weights above him, in itself, was incredible
