I read, code (Prater Raines), learn, father, game, wander & wonder. I'm often found at online tech events when I should be working/studying.

I'm quite fascinated to read the book discussed in this video, I must admit: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTsn...

This is about oil. Trump tried to bring Canada to heel, to take Greenland, to control Venezuela, and now to bring about regime change in Iran. That's three of the top four countries with proven oil reserves. I suspect Trump's preparing for Climate Change unrest through a resource grab, like Putin.

Why this school in Derby will ditch a shirt, tie and blazer from its uniform The school says the move is practical - but it echoes a wider debate over the role of uniforms.

I'd go further and move to joggers too. Cheaper and better for physical exercise and those with sensory issues. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Great quote on Sky News. Trump is mentioned in the Epstein Files more than Harry Potter is in JK Rowling's books.

Shame they didn't add another few quid onto Game Pass Ultimate and include WoW in it alongside Fortnite Crew. A great MMORPG alongside a great Battle Royale has to be a top level offering.

I commute four hours a day to work in the office - Gen Z aren't lazy Lily-May Edwards travels two hours each way from north Wales to Liverpool to work in the office.

Work doesn't guarantee owning a home, unsecured debt & keeping up with the Jones keeps us all stressed, we only have the time & energy to live on processed crap, & there's many more leisure options so why work 100 hour weeks anyway. Oh but working from home is bad...

It occurs to me that the Silicon Valley oligarchs that are cosying up to Trump may wish to look to Russia (or even China) for where that ends up. If they let him gain too much power then even one small mistake could result in them losing everything, including their liberty or even their lives.

Not impressed with Tim Sweeney's take on xAI and Grok. Partially moving the production of illegal content behind a paywall is not seeking to resolve the issue. Other LLM providers have resolved issues with their services far more thoroughly and efficiently, even where no laws have been broken.

Meme going around here that the Grok policy change (around only generating images when @ed by a paid user) was a β€œhallucination”. It wasn’t, it’s a real policy change; the misreporting is that this does NOT limit free users from generating images using other interfaces for Grok, such as its app.

Trump is a Tyrant aiming to become a Despot. ICE are his Sov-Com and may well end up being his Gestapo.

Time to give companies like Diageo that give in to Trump's Mafioso tactics the boot (as well as US companies) I think. I'm going to have to think a lot more about what I buy. That'll be easier if the UK and EU support tech companies based here. Food and manufacturing is probably easier to manage.
