🚨 BREAKING: Kent County Council is hurtling towards financial oblivion under Reform.

A shocking new council report reveals a projected budget black hole of £46.5 million for this year. The Reform Administration has completely lost control of our finances. 🔶

This is exactly what I feared would happen. I dread to think how many will follow.

I’ve just experienced my first foray into developing games with Godot and I really enjoyed it.

I’m excited to continue playing around with it 👨🏻‍💻

If it’s not important enough for you to create it’s not important enough to make me look at it.

I’m finding the take of “If we all learn to use AI effectively, we’ll be able to counteract the loss of critical thinking that’s associated with using it” to be deeply ignorant.

Our history repeatedly tells us that we’re genetically wired to take the path of least resistance for ourselves.

I like Corbyn and Sultana. They’re ethically sound and have a real passion for the change the lower/middle classes want to see.

However, this project ain’t it. It’ll continue to struggle shaking off its initial woes and it’ll struggle to appeal to a younger demographic (as can be seen here).
Liverpool ➡️ Birkenhead ➡️ Manchester ➡️ Hastings ➡️ A city or town near you!

We’ve been travelling up and down the country to build a new kind of political party — one that is built from the grassroots.

I love this feature. Personal blogs are one of the great sources for info.

Zack Polanski has what Mamdani has and Corbyn hasn't: the ability to turn the hysterical attacks of his enemies into jokes. That's temperamental but also probably generational

Working my way through "Elixir in Action" by Saša Jurić. I'm thoroughly enjoying the book and the language thus far.

The search for an Arc alternative continues... 🧵

I tried the Orion browser from the Kagi folks. I like it a lot, enough to say that it's a potential daily driver. However there are a few quirks that prevented me from making that jump.

I'm thoroughly enjoying my experience Kagi's browser & search right now. Searching is fast, has bang syntax support and has numerous quality of life features built-in for developers.

Highly recommended thus far!
