In ~3 hours (@ 5pm UTC) I will be livestreaming my Python solution for day 6.

We'll also go back to day 5 to implement the MOST efficient ⚡️ solution for day 5, since my solution from yesterday was kinda inefficient. 🐌

Rather than apologising for his antisemitism, Farage demands the BBC apologise for the antisemitism of Alf Garnett, a fictional character created to satirise antisemitism, who was portrayed by a Jewish man.

I recently listened to the audiobook version of Cory Doctorow's new book about the phenomenon he calls enshitification, which is what this song is about as well. It'll be on Ai Tsuno's upcoming album, Army of Robots.

Boris Johnson says the idea that criticism of the BBC is being organised by the right is ‘complete and utter bollocks’, which makes me think there might be something in it.

Trump’s closing argument for Cuomo:

He was born privileged and entitled like me. We also both had multiple sexual harassment allegations against us and are accused by many of screwing up the pandemic.
