It's not quite the same as it was. But it's still one of life's pleasures.

Get yourself to HMV this weekend and buy something you like (and maybe a poster, or a T-shirt 😎).

You won't regret it 😁

It’s also interesting that this is seen as men moving alt right rather than women moving radical left.

And the split across ex-West/East Germany seems to have been missed/ignored in much of the coverage, too.

Fascinating @fftedudatalab.bsky.social blog about measuring reading fluency using grapheme-phoneme correspondence.
Really good to see data broken down using medians of quartiles, which gives a good sense of the degree of variation

Not sure who needs to have this to hand, but it might bike in useful in the run up to the Big Midwinter Thing…
