I'm also making good progress on the Star Trek book revisions. Being most thorough with them and hope it will be much improved as a result.

Shabana Mahmood's Indefinite Leave To Remain Culture War
3 years - if you're earning £125k+
15 years - if you're e.g. a nurse, or a teacher
Labour's two tier system which rewards high earners and insults those who work just as hard but don't earn as much - really sad to see Labour fall

British and Australian chemists have discovered a powerful new antibiotic called pre-methylenomycin C lactone, hiding in a well-known soil bacterium that produces another drug, methylenomycin A. This molecule however, is 100 times more potent than methylenomycin A and kills drug-resistant […]

I think this is *the* licensing issue of our time.
Whether it's prohibiting fascist uses or stopping AI training, liberal open licenses are falling down.
