Men in balaclavas set fire to a mosque in East Sussex last night. It's only appearing on the BBC's local coverage, rather than its main national headlines, despite coming just a week after the (also under-reported) firebombing of an asylum hotel in London last week

Just wondering if there is any beer or brewer that has not yet won an award? Amazing the succession of 'okay' beers I see parading this or that award.

Remember. When dealing with the HMRC app and the HMRC help line, it's not the fault of the person on the phone.

What would we estimate is the current return on the investment in AI?
When you consider the investment, don't just think about the money OpenAI et al have spent, also consider the time individuals have spent learning and the license costs for AI software.
It's going to be a long payback period...

Hey! Running a pub in the Lake District? Want to attract more custom? Here’s a great idea! Why not put the opening hours of the pub somewhere - anywhere - on your webiste, social media accounts, or Google search entry?
