Mildly economically leftish when absolutely forced into it. Authoritarian on social and domestic issues. A government that has continued to crush protest and criminalise dissent. And one that has made life worse for significant minorities. It wasn’t identified as left-leaning, because it wasn’t.

Bills up. Wages too low. Record profits for Oil & Gas. 50 richest families with more wealth than 50% of population. Shit in our rivers. Pensioners jailed for protesting. Migrants thrown under the bus. Supporting a Genocide. That's Starmer's legacy.

The most emotion Keir Starmer has shown is over losing his job, not enabling the genocide of the Palestinian people. Good riddance. His next stop should be The Hague.

Omitting prepositions e.g. "explain it me" is a rhetoric tool. It makes your opponent scared of you. You can't call me out on it because you'll look stupid. I have won the argument.

spent an hour today going over a colleague's PR that was largely LLM-generated, that adds 300 lines of checks & verbose explanations for some tiny part of our system. whereas it could be done better by telling people to run 2 commands. LLM reinvented a shitty wheel instead of using what's there

even if your JP ability isn’t fluent, you should nonetheless play games in JP before playing LLM/AI-translations if you worry about not grasping all of the context, meaning, subtext, and nuance from JP text at your current ability, you’re still certainly losing all of that with LLM/AI-translations

At this point, I genuinely believe the entire public is being actively gaslit by both the media, and Esther Ghey herself, into forgetting that Brianna Ghey was murdered, by people she knew from school, in real life, who were partly influenced by transphobia, fuelled by the media and politicians.

This Governments branding of protest as 'terrorism' has seen grandparents arrested and dragged through the courts simply for holding up signs. It's deeply authoritarian when people are speaking out against a genocide and for a free Palestine.

So we're really going to uphold terror offences against over 3,500 people for holding up signs, at the same time that Tommy Robinson, Nogel Farage and Rupert Lowe have been inciting pogroms? Fucking joke country.

guy from a world where 9/11 didn't happen, finding out about 9/11: you have got to be fucking me sexually!* *TN: due to linguistic shift from divergent events, in his world, "you have got to be fucking me sexually" is a common exclamation of disbelief, similar to "you have got to be kidding me"

Figured out how to do metaprogramming on exclusively data type metadata in Haskell, permitting you to ignore instantiating typevars. I fill em with Any with a funky type class and turn into Rep when it's fully applied. Hilarious

there were already many reasons to do this but Elon Musk actively encouraging racist violence in Belfast should be the final straw for every UK government institution to stop doing business - including being on X - with him in any way, and for him to be barred from entry to the country.
