The Intelligence and Security Committee has completed its inquiry into cloud technologies. It’s statement today suggests that this is a rare example of an ISC report which may not be laid before Parliament or published ‘due to ongoing security sensitivities’.

Very excited to soon receive my first thermal imaging monocular.
Can’t wait to see how it impacts (and hopefully) improves my knowledge and management of our land.

I’ve been too passive on Bluesky for a while. The craziness of the world made me withdraw.
Time to share and celebrate more of what I love, and the positive impact I see from my and others’ work.
Hope others can share more of what they love too. 🙏🏻🤞🏻

I think it is often not appreciated that the legal systems in Mesopotamia went far beyond criminal law or setting out remedies for basic torts into dealing with many issues that arise today. The formalised methods of adoption are one. But there are many others such as shipping & inheritance.
This cracked clay tablet from the 1800s BCE preserves the moment a baby named Ili-awīli was adopted from his mother Ayartum and her husband by another couple.
People adopted for many reasons in ancient Mesopotamia — desire for a baby, need for an heir, adopting child from a previous marriage, etc.
