I heard Gordon Brown speak last night. He spoke for over an hour without notes with pure conviction, vision and overwhelming passion for ending child poverty here and around the world. Not to be cheesy but it is inspiring stuff to hear people speak like this.

Is it NIMBY to agree with this? The loss of public spaces isn't reversing any time soon and cash strapped councils probably wouldn't do this if they had healthy balance sheets.

I had my 1:1 with my director outside in the sun and we found a nice quiet park in Marylebone. Turns out it was private and we got locked in. Spent 15 mins trying to find someone who could let us out again.

Just imagine if a much younger, less hidebound, more agile institution β say, the Senate, or the U.S. Supreme Court β adopted such a hoary old rule. Weβd all be so much better off.

Labour is doing this to, once again, avoid a tough conversation with the electorate on tax. Dodging that conversation is coming at a very high price in this instance. And the sums may well not add up in any case.

Medical large language models are vulnerable to data-poisoning attacks - Nature Medicine
Large language models can be manipulated to generate misinformation by poisoning of a very small percentage of the data on which they are trained, but a harm mitigation strategy using biomedical knowledge graphs can offer a method for addressing this vulnerability.
