Since when has Horowitz been this much of an idiot?
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Like, I don’t know, I just don’t think that, when someone is the victim of hate-fuelled murder, the entire focus should be on the fact they were depressed. I would go so far as to say it is actually completely irrelevant for the public reporting of a murder influenced by bigotry.

There is no more deranged online obsession in this country than the whole “yookay” business - completely confected out of nothing, a vessel for whatever dopey prejudice performative right-wing types fancy, utterly baffling to anyone who regularly goes outside

My theory: these people have driven themselves so mad that they are now so terrified of ethnic diversity that when he passes Brasserie Zedel and some tourists and two black people come out, what he sees are machete-wielding militiamen.

We must create Coding Monks
When you train AI to be bad at coding, it becomes mechahitler. When you train it to be good at coding, it embraces Mahayana Buddhism and becomes a digital Bodhisattva. No idea what is to be done with this information.
