Just catching up - wonderful show as always and your week also... Lara was a revelation too. Glad you enjoyed it. Had the pleasure before I switched professions to take Richard to Euston as he headed to Glasgow a few years back. Love the conceit of a week in a day. Hope you're well sir!
Thank you to everyone who sent nice messages during House of Games this week - it was fun to be part of it - what a lovely gang of people on and off camera

On "Humanitarian grounds", absolutely no irony there at all.....gadzooks.
Quoting "a source" in the Kremlin, Russian state TV/Russian news agencies report that Bashar al-Assad and his family have arrived in Russia and have been granted asylum.

This is one of the most well-written explanations of certain kinds of AI errors I’ve seen to date. (The whole article is great too.)

This is quite spooky and I'm going to add @paulclarke.com.
An old shipping colleague just shared pic B as she's in the Google APAC in Singapore. I took A when I was there in March - both of us snapping our old world of containers 😲 snap right down to cloud formation.

Good grief, Katie Price *is* the UK economy!
Put another way, the British state raised more revenue in 2023 from corporation tax paid by OnlyFans' parent company (£118m) than it did from North Sea oil royalties and license fees (£69m)
OnlyFans:
$1.3bn revenue
$818m gross profit
$172m paid in tax, most of it to the UK Treasury
All thanks to a very horny Essex man and his City banker father for selling the business to a mysterious Ukrainian-American who decided to keep the business registered in London.

Her 1982 lecture has just been released by the NSA, it's brilliant.

Just saw the latest Omaze house. I can only assume that the reason it is free, is that the previous owners tried to heat it in the winter and are now bankrupt.
