I remember when Loran / RDF was more trusted than GPS in lumpier littoral situations (eg: finishing a stage of an offshore race under spinnaker in Cork Harbour at 3am with 100% cloud cover). The loss of physical marker buoys for redundancy is A Really Not Great Idea: uscg-marker-removals.webflow.io

They've come a long, long way since the Princess, Maestro and Metro.
I didn't realise they were still making futuristically styled, unreliable, shoddily constructed...
Oh.

I've just accidentally locked myself out of my Twitter account by changing my DoB. I absolutely won't be uploading my ID to unlock it, which is a shame as I only logged back in to delete all my content. Ah well.

It's already been said: the relatively easy and affordable (for the publishers, at least) part of publishing is the writing bit. The rest of it is actually really hard to do, and these clowns are showing their ignorance by trying to disrupt the wrong bit.
Jokes on them, I’m going to use AI to come up with 8000 businesses for dipshits
Why? Who is this meant to be good for? Nobody wants your shit AI books, never mind 8,000 in a year. Just a terrible idea and a horrible road the publishing industry is heading down.

I've gone freelance, and that means marketing myself. Hopefully this little history of a fun campaign will make up for the self-promotion: www.linkedin.com/pulse/its-us...
