It is the St Andrews film festival this weekend, and you might enjoy joining me and a film studio chief scientist talking about AI in the creative industries. I am already fully stocked with Arnie one liners, but please suggest other suitable films to drop into the chat sands-iff.com/portfolio-it...

I can't remember much but I do still have the t-shirt. Those days were very exciting as I had just moved from Singapore and it was a novelty both to be able to see cool bands and to not be told to sit down by police (standing up or dancing at concerts was considered very naughty).

Feeling a bit homesick this new year's eve, so tried asking Deepseek about Singapore. It told me that Singapore is in China. Which is something that I heard more than once when we lived in the US. So perhaps Deepseek is more American than you think.

I confess that I don't know enough about the use cases and requirements for AP vs AT to know if this is a fair comparison. I found this at atproto.com/guides/faq but the merging data isn't taken into account by this 1m self-hosted edge case.

When I was growing up there was no notion of data protection. NRIC numbers were used everywhere. I seem to remember they were even printed in the newspaper. But then the PDPA came in and you started to see signs like this. It would be a shame to regress.
