Hey, @Morrisons @YMorrisonsDaily
Should I really be seeing milk on the shelf 2 hours before it reaches its use-by date?

Dear white people. Respectfully, please have a word with those other white people who are beginning to make me feel unwanted in the country of my birth. Don't be silent.

The over-optimistic final Survation poll (left) compared to reality (right). Plaid Cymru and the Greens did as well or better than expected. Labour and SNP did worse.

So let's imagine a scenario of how capitalism actually works, kids. You ready?
I'm a pharma guy and my company creates a drug that can save the lives of people who are going to die if they don't get it. It costs $5/dose to make.
My guys say we should sell it for $15K/dose.

1. I'm legit shocked by the design of @Meta's new notification informing us they want to use the content we post to train their AI models. It's intentionally designed to be highly awkward in order to minimise the number of users who will object to it. Let me break it down.
@ManyATrueNerd This looks right up your alley. It's a little new and rough around the edges but a mix of city-builder and RTS from a one-man developer. If you don't get around to it immediately, it's worth keeping your eye on. ;-) clips.twitch.tv/SlipperyBore…

2 days to finish the book I'm contracted for.
Today I find that #Tensorflow was updated three weeks ago to use a major update of #keras.
Instead of doing a last read-through of the text, I get an unexpected hard-stop error in previously tested code. I have to research and fix.

“I saw in Auschwitz that if a dominant group wants to dehumanise others, as the Nazis dehumanise me, the dominant group must first dehumanise themselves, the same holds nowadays for Israel.
I am appalled about how hateful, how dehumanised, that they do not see any human aspect in any Palestinian anymore.
The Zionists have no right whatsoever to use the Holocaust for any purpose, they have given up everything which has to do with humanity and with empathy”

It feels like (X) Twitter has been blocking people from following us
We've been stuck at 138,000 followers for ages
Maybe the fight to save the NHS isn't important for Elon Musk but it is for us

This is the problem with generative AI. It needs to stop. It's technologically a dead end and it brings nothing of value.
