Perhaps we could spend the next couple of years building enough capacity in renewables that we never have to have one of these oil crises again. Completely feasible.

Wonderful chutzpah displayed by Simile who today 'emerge from stealth' claiming to have invented the concept of AI simulation. AI panels are cheap and kind of useful but claiming they are somehow new and using apocalyptic language to get $100M VC funding is smart. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
“Jim Ratcliffe’s comments were outrageous. They are offensive and they were deeply wrong. We do have a problem in our country, and that problem is inequality. It’s not immigration.”
Ellie Chowns on #BBCQT, rejecting attempts to blame migrants for country's problems.

No-one seems to have noticed, but many of the core developments in the Mandelson/Epstein story these last few days have been broken on this website. @pickardje.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social are both posting each breaking development on BlueSky, not X.
New life goal. When my career ends I want a chiron on Sky News that says I am “officially retiring” plus archive photo of me in my pants

Grim outlook for American voters in the latest Sienna polling. They can't afford the basics
This is so obviously untrue and hype, why does the Guardian give such uncritical, credulous coverage to hype merchants from the world of technology? Argh.
This morning I learned that (a) the amazing menswear guy has come over to Bluesky and (b) he has a new column on the business of fashion that is extremely smart. The first article on premium Made In USA garments is a real tonic vs all the recent ICE drama and worth ten mins of your time.
Not only is our information environment increasingly polluted, volatile, and artificial, we are now tackling mainstream influence campaigns that are directly aimed towards disrupting our democratic processes at scale and pace. Expect this disruptive threat. #Misinformation

Headline: "Scientists discover emperor penguin colony in Antarctica using satellite images"
Yesterday it was cows using tools, today its penguins using satellite imagery.
To protect #Greenland, Denmark or NATO need to find an official spokesperson with the surname Epstein. Trump will drop the topic in a week.
his jackets are ghastly
He should talk to Anthropic, Open AI and the rest about their marketing strategies which seem to be at least 50% based on speculating about dangerous and improbable outcomes
Yesterday I learned that Brie Larson, who voices Rosalina in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, once threw her boyfriend out of her house because she was trying to finish the final level of Super Mario Galaxy and he told her she was taking it too seriously
Marco Silva needs to stop being so scared of his idol and mentor Pep. Once the handbrake came off (already 5-1 down!) we were fantastic #ffc
This is my least favourite. Christ. But no. You are warm. Also I sold you a wrong lead on 80s... I've googled it and this artist (while not exactly in need of extra money) has pressed 7 Xmas songs, starting with the least favourite in 1974.
My first guess. She hates Chris Rea, and this song, and you are in the right ballpark in terms of era and artist. But no.
(I un-ironically love this song. Sorry.)
Eric Cart
I will give you the clues I had: 80s. UK artist. Solo artist.
I will give you one additional clue if you get stuck.
No. That is too obscure.
Haha, eventually but with some googling. It is fairly obscure! But you have definitely heard it. Let me know iif you need clues to get started
Marriage tip: yesterday I was feeling utterly stressed about money and work, but instead of dooming and glooming my wife suggested I try and guess her least favourite Christmas song.
This is a story designed to appeal to grumpy Dads. St Louis armed robber identified by the designer underwear visible in surveillance footage. Should have spent the takings on a BELT: www.yahoo.com/news/article...
