Jesus christ. I think I need to turn to alcohol or drugs or therapy or SOMETHING. I had seen the AMOC overturning warnings, but I had not seen this graph. I though somehow mostly the North Atlantic and Europe would be affected, but no, it's global boiling. en.vedur.is/media/ads_in_h…

A far greater proportion of private than state school pupils get extra time in exams… which is even odder when you consider the wider context this is happening within: we know special educational needs are more prevalent in poorer areas ft.com/content/5f96ea…

Polite reminder. Trump & Brexit are not 2 different things. They are the same thing. Same companies. Same data. Same Facebook. Same Russians. Same Cambridge Analytica. Same Robert Mercer. Same Steve Bannon. Same Breitbart. Same Alexander Nix. Same Donald Trump. Same Nigel Farage.

"I'm voting for fascism because my apartheid mom is still afraid of black people" sure is a take.

I suppose I should also thank all the racists & other weirdos who shitpost about me obsessively on here, helpfully advertising the antidote I offer every day to the lies & poison they spew. So... большое спасибо!

This would be an insane policy: arts, book publishing and scholarship are massive strengths of the UK. To allow (mostly California-based...) AI enterprises to 'scrape' their work is not just immoral and philistine, but an act of monumental economic self-harm.

As widely rumoured, the UK government is considering legalising gen AI training on copyrighted work without a licence. This would be a huge betrayal of the UK’s creators. It would mean letting AI companies use creators’ work to build highly scalable AI models that will directly…
