An excellent evergreen point made succinctly.

I think if Kamala had won, he would be arguing the exact opposite effect; it will be hugely disruptive in ways that benefit educated and female concentrated occupations. These guys are the only truly 100% cynical homus economicus

There seem to be an awful lot of Β£30k Chinese brand of the week SUVs solving that in the wrong way.

The fundamental flaw of Alex Cole-Hamilton is not that he's English, or a Lib Dem, or anti-independence; but that he is, simply, an insufferable cunt

Unfortunately that’s probable, claiming we can drill-and-frack to oil self-sufficiency. Nonsense, but a talking point nonetheless.

Also, things change. As a whole, the US Democratic Party no longer supports Jim Crow as it did in the 1920s.

Zac is bad at things. He has demonstrated this in a wide range of fields.

it can't tell if the output is true because *it has no concept of truth*. The only thing it "knows" is "this output is correlated"

It is structurally indifferent to truth

Maybe we should be clearer. Jobs aren’t at risk from AI. They’re at risk from amoral shitbag short term spec capitalists using AI against a weakly unionised workforce and broken government.

Yes, the illegal war is unpopular, damaging to the stock market, and making everything more expensive. But are we talking about Epstein? Mission accomplished.

Woke: Monzo's customers should get a grip and stop complaining

Westminster Meeting House raided by Metropolitan Police again. Statement: β€œFor Quakers, faith and action are inseparable. Peaceful protest, prayer and nonviolent action are integral parts of many Quakers' religious life.

Whilst we take the planning of criminal acts very seriously, we believe that this incident is a deliberate targeting of committed young people who want to make our country a more equitable place. This raid is part of a systematic stifling of dissent.

That this is the second time in a year that the police have raided our meeting house dramatically illuminates the broader trend in the UK of cracking down on those who disagree with the government. The right to protest is fundamental to our democracy. It's a key part of how people make their voices heard between elections.” – Oliver Robertson, Head of Witness and Worship
