Sustainable materials, energy, decarbonisation. Engineering, scale up, cats. Dad of 3.
What I don't get is people who *don't* find it disgusting that a president elected to represent all the people will literally shit all over half of them.

And they say left "hates America" smh
and another thing: he’s not mad. please don’t put it in the newspaper that he got mad.

Fun little thing to think about... 🤔

In any knockout tournament, there's one player or team in the draw, who was knocked out by someone in the next round, who was in turn knocked out in the following round, etc. right till the end. 🏁

The @economist.com missed an important opportunity to provide useful analysis of a vexing challenge: the cost of sustainably powering the UK...

@acjsissons.bsky.social does us a great service by doing some of that analysis for them...
I want to come back properly on this Economist piece that questions Britain's approach to net zero.

It gets three things wrong imo:

1. Ignoring periods of v cheap renewable energy
2. Misdiagnosing the relative costs of renewables
3. Looking backwards, not forwards.
Is Britain’s net-zero push to blame for its high energy prices?
A mighty rise in electricity costs has complicated the drive for clean power

People have realise that in a dog-eat-dog world, business will "go where energy is cheap" and we can have that in the UK... with zonal pricing...

It occurs to me, RFK Jr's ignorance of mental health conditions when he was younger is probably due to the bias called the "availability heuristic".

Makes me wonder, if AI models learn from scraping, surely they suffer this bias too? What other biases do AI LLMs suffer? Could be a great study 🤔

Trump does not understand several simple economics lessons, such as:
- import tariffs are a tax on citizens
- uncertainty & shocks destroy value
- protected markets lose competitiveness

I can only hope Americans like these below will somehow stop him.
Reddit is flooded with small businesses owners getting crushed by tariffs — devastated by the thought of raising prices, firing workers, or closing up shop entirely.

Saw a snippet of this on LinkedIn and wondered if it was AI...
Found this source...

Reagan explained in a radio address in 1987, in terms even Trump could understand, why tariffs are risky business...

I'm starting to think of elite rationalizations of Trump's insanity as a kind of highbrown qanon. It's the fantasy that things can't be as fucked as they seem and that in reality there's a secret plan being carried out by competent patriots

Let’s put this in perspective, if you had a friend whose husband was as fragile and psycho as Trump is, you’d tell her to roll on out and find safe haven:

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT?

Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

This is insightful 🤔
As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

Fascinating to think about... crime is down but people think it's up.

I blame the media.

...plus ironically, efforts to root out bad eggs from the police made us realise there were bad eggs in the police... 🤔
NEW: Why do we always think crime is rising, even when it isn’t?

This week I looked at one of the big data mysteries. Britain is 2/3 less violent than the 1990s; thefts were higher pre-lockdown

Why, then, doesn’t it feel like it?

My take on why Bluesky has better engagement and clickthroughs...
Yes X is throttling links, yes, it's become a toxic cesspool, but we must not forget that bluesky has "selected" for "engaged" people... [1 of 2]
