disappointed with @octopus.energy for not advertising their salaries, important for inclusion, diversity and fairness. And it would waste less time if you advertised the salary.

The way the entire British media is suddenly discussing 'two tier policing' as if it is a real thing worth seriously debating, rather than the obvious far-right white supremacist fantasy it has always been, is very alarming

didnt expect the guardian to be quite so enthusiastic about Trump's world cup

here's the tool, it's a fun thing to explore imo: vbuckenham.com/epicycles/

why is Safari putting "bookmarks" in scare quotes? Also weird capitalisation

literally the only "public toilets issue" that should exist in political discourse is that there fucking aren't any any more.

Congrats to the DeepMind UK team for this remarkable step. It took real courage to stand up for principles their company has shamefully abandoned. I’m glad to call some of them friends, but today I’m really proud of them all. It’s a long fight ahead.

I generally don't like the 'this affects everyone!!' stuff re trans rights, because it should be enough that it affects trans people, but ... it's now really apparent that the anti-trans tendency is *making everyone unsafe* and has to be dealt with *regardless of what you think of trans rights*

I ran my 100th training course recently 💐 17 courses, 2000+ people. It's been a privilege to meet and learn with so many wonderful people. Instead of the clichéd "top 5 things I've learnt" post, I was wondering if anyone had any questions for me? Serious and silly questions are equally welcome!

I know I shouldn't be, but having been around since the beginning, I remain shocked that Google is so "yeah, whatever" about their flagship product (Search) spitting out so much wrong shit. Like, have some self-respect.

From Companies House, this is weird: There’s a 14 day period during which each PSC must confirm their identity is verified. For PSCs that are also directors of this company, it’s based on the company’s confirmation statement date.

34.8ºC at Kew Gardens breaks its May AND June records by OVER 4ºC for its May record set in 1922 and by 0.2ºC for its June record set in 1976. Unprecedented heat for the UK in late May, and likely to be bettered tomorrow. A rounded 35ºC temperature should not happen in May.

34 degrees in may is pretty concerning

Google built a massive empire through ads on the web. So why wasn't it possible for websites themselves to be sustainable? Google could have supported a healthy web but chose not to

I really don't want to hear about anymore contributions to the web from Google. They are not good stewards no matter the good-intentioned people they funnel their features through.

OpenAI Announces Construction Of New Data Center On Top Of Sick Child

"The report ... argues that individuals have far greater control over their longevity than is commonly understood. The authors call on the government to take legislative action on alcohol" Hmmm

Service mapping is an important and useful tool in service design and a core skill for service designers. @ignacia orellana are running a training course on Service mapping in September. www.tickettailor.com/events/ignac...

Is the FT really correlating phones with birth rates? Seems.. dubious

you think you got bars but you will never produce a bar like the old lady next door who just turned to her 40 something yr old son who was trying to interrupt and in Punjabi said " son, when I want your opinion I will tell you what to say"
