Amazing thanks. I think that will put many users at ease knowing or understanding that GH is heading in the right direction and issues are temporary. 💙

GitHub Status Welcome to GitHub's home for real-time and historical data on system performance.

With no malice and only love intended, I tend to check status.GitHub.com seems to be a lot of issues lately. Too much AI, perhaps?

I had one who said “transcription failed” trying to spoof me into picking up. I listened to the voicemail to confirm. Quite clever in a way, didn’t work for me but can see many being duped.

Has anyone considered solar, wind and tidal rather than being held to ransom by oil/gas due to shipping an logistical problems caused by War?

I dunno, if I can no longer use the sun in a conflict situation, energy is the least of my problems.

NHS official pushed to add patient data to Palantir platform whilst also advising company

NHS official pushed to add patient data to Palantir platform whilst also advising company

A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts.

Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir.

This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition:

Trump restocked and rebuilt US arms prior to them being depleted by Biden for Ukraine.

Incredibly foresight! maybe God is in fact a half orange half scabby pedophile sex offender. Who knew.

Live on Sky News:

Not only did @yaldahakim.bsky.social get into protective gear during a segment on a live broadcast Yalda continues to present during air raid sirens with alerts missiles are en route without flinching. What a pro. Mad, but a pro.

They’ve now cut the broadcast

I'm going to do a thread 🧵 here on the questions asked in UK Parliament about the #MEDeliveryPlan specifically and ME in general since November 2025.

Due to the vagaries of threads in BSky 🙄, this might not work as planned, but let's give it a go...

My maddening battle with chronic fatigue syndrome: ‘On my worst days, it feels almost demonic’ The long read: I suffered with my mystery illness for decades before gaining a diagnosis. Could retraining my brain be the answer?

'a professional’s belief that the truth resided in the numbers on paper, not in the manifestly sick person before their eyes, seemed to me the same kind of literalism that causes people to drive their cars into bodies of water because the satnav told them to.'

Anthropic’s AI model Claude gets popularity boost after US military feud Claude climbs to top of app store charts in US and UK after being blacklisted by Pentagon over ethics concerns

As I've been saying for days: this feud with Hegseth -- in which Anthropic looks principled, and Claude looks so valuable that the Pentagon can't live without it -- has been terrific marketing for Anthropic www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Phantom Obligation Why RSS readers look like email clients, and what that's doing to us.

Too rarely, an app creator breaks outdated conventions and designs their dream app from first principles to solve a problem in a radical way, instead of shipping yet another uninspired clone.

If you’re into laser-focused creators, this is well worth your time.

Rubio:

Trump: "See that nice drape? When that comes down right now you see a very very deep hole, but in about a year and half you're gonna see a very very beautiful building. In fact, it looks so nice I think I'll leave it and save money on the doors. I believe it will be the most beautiful ballroom."

Iran told Donny his gold drapes looked tacky and asked if he got them from Home Depot.

good for you. I too have similar low level personal tools created by AI and my guidance that all improve my digital quality of life. None of which are high value enough to pay for moreover for someone else to build.

You do you and do what works. 👍
