How it started ... How it's going
The Uk govts confidence in AI in its growth strategy is one of the most maddening things about it. A close second is the magical belief everyone is going to instal a heat pump next year and 100k jobs will be created
Tail wagging the dog
Regarding Iran's threats to the Strait, Trump claims, "We have the greatest mine sweeping ability." Um, no. 1/4
He’s lost control of events. Iran can close the strait unless he invades and holds the surrounding area. But that will be a costly exercise he doesn’t want.
Who says they will reopen the strait though?
5 vehicle crash according to highways agency
Always struck me as more black humour than anti war. I read somewhere it was so popular in the army that a us army colonel in Vietnam used to make his battalion sing it as they marched
This is what I recall too and why I opposed it. It was clear that what would happen was a few missiles fired from a ship or something and basically nothing would be achieved
WW1 generals didn’t think it would be all over by Christmas. That’s why the schlieffen plan existed. And it’s also why lord Kitchener warned the cabinet in august 1914 that a war would be a “three year bloodbath”
Cantonas comment was always obvious in its meaning. The press chose to pretend it wasn’t because it was embarrassing to them
I want to see an entire episode where he is tied to a wooden mast blindfolded while it all happens around him
Fwiw I think spurs will stay up. But if they did go down I could see them doing a Tommy docherty, crushing the championship and then taking the confidence into a good place prem finish the season after.
Scholes v rarely did media as a player. When he did he often said something v blunt and what PR teams would have considered ‘unhelpful’.
I think he’s just one of those unfiltered people. If you give them access to a microphone and broadcast their every utterance you’re going to get some of that kind of thing
He was always pretty straight talking as a player. Think that’s why they kept him away from the media!
One of the interesting parallels with 14-18 is the highly trained pre war soldiers were mainly killed in the attrition war. A new breed of attrition war experts eventually replaced them who then struggled to adapt once open warfare broke out again.
Slightly harsh to say they don’t work. It’s about context. NATO have been preparing for open manoeuvre warfare with air superiority. But Ukraine is in a Ww1 style attrition war without control of the skies. As in 1918 eventually open warfare will return before someone wins
I always assumed it was to get through the rib cage. But surely the ribs would snap the needle?

Employees who are impressed by vague corporate-speak like "synergistic leadership," or "growth-hacking paradigms" may struggle with practical decision-making

Except.... that the US hasn't abandoned Ukraine yet which is the main point of the Trump whispering (though not Starmer's alone).
Maybe. His approach seems quite reasonable to me. Not supportive of initial strikes and on a defensive posture. If facts change though be prepared to change with them. I doubt 90% of the population are following every twist & turn anyway.
Seems like our base in Cyprus has been attacked though. Which does substantially change the picture.

I would imagine AI would be most useful for targeting not by using it, but by tapping into the data it sends back from your phone, including where you are. Essentially, bad guys use chat gpt as well.
Whatever carrick said to them at half time seems to have worked. Could have fallen asleep in the first half. Could end up with 3 or 4 at this rate in the second!

Need to make the extra man count
Some of them yes. These kind of people tend to be members of lots of fringe parties at the same time anyway. Greens technically forbid it but how confident are we in their processes given it’s a tiny party.
