And today it's the turn of The Times to try and patronise us all.

Every single day the right wing establishment tries to close ranks.

And every day we are growing.

Här är en väldigt amatörmässig bild på vilka organisationer som är ihopkopplade.

Färgkoder är som följer:
Orange: Sverige
Gröna: UK
Rosa: EU
Blå: Internationella

Det här inte långa vägar allt och alla, och kopplingen kan vara allt från ’var på möte med’ till samarbetspartners.

A neat tool I just came across: Viabundus, a digital road map of northern Europe 1350-1650, that lets you calculate contemporary travel routes/times. In 1500, going Amiens → Köln by horse took almost 7 days and 13 toll payments.

Ju färre som använder X desto mer höger blir plattformen. Här är årets 20 i topp på X. Samtidigt är det nu bara 8% av svenskarna som använder X varje vecka. Antalet yngre vuxna användare har halverats på två år.

Casey Muratori pretty much sums up how I feel about LLMs for coding:

"The AI will always be useless for me. I physically can't get what I want from programming when AI is involved, because what it is doing is robbing me of the experience that I wanted to have and the knowledge that I wanted to get"

It has come to my attention that many of you have been sharing this photo of Streeting and Mandelson widely.

Please remember that Wes Streeting does not like it being shared widely. So please do not share it widely and on every possible occasion. We wouldn’t want to upset him would we?

This dynamic keeps repeating. Respectable commentators want to have a philosophical debate about (e.g.) Britishness or the definition of "woman", because they don't want to spell out the unpleasant things they think should be done to certain people.
don't fall for the trap of explaining yet again St George wasn't English and the British flag was used to exploit the world. They know. But this is the conversation they would prefer us to have endlessly. The flags are a proxy because they'd get arrested if they said 'GO HOME'. This is the issue.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

In case you'd forgotten just how frothily insane Corbyn drove the UK press, ten years ago today the Daily Mail published one of the most unhinged articles ever written, this foaming-at-the-mouth imagining of what his time as PM would look like.

Prime Minister Corbyn... and the 1,000 days that destroyed Britain
Corbyn has promised to reject austerity, bring the railways back into public ownership and scrap Trident if he is elected Prime Minister - and the results could be terrifying, fears DAVID THOMAS.
