Ok so hooking up Figma to Cursor is a fucking game changer

Perfectly put. I’m don’t really want to go back to coding without it. Writing the code was never the point. Solving a problem or adding value was. AI helps me to that quicker.

Who did this?

Fund scholarship. Jadwiga of Poland knew this 600 years ago. Leaders should know now.

A full day out at @chesterzoo.bsky.social today. Been a few years since I last went and it was amazing. It’s really grown into a wonderful top notch zoo. Well done to all the staff and who ever signed off on all the new stuff. Highly recommended

I can see a lot of wastage if AI is used and pushed this hard (and effectively unmetered due to if it’s a good thing why meter it in-house). Easy to end up using it for everything and just getting lazy which burns credits and time.

Excuse me while I just take a moment to scream into the void

Labour moving on from its past mistakes by recreating them identically.

2 runs a week for 6 weeks now and I’m stunned at the amount of progress I feel each time I go out. I run walk the same loop and the running parts are longer, the walking shorter and the number of them reducing. Pleasing and encouraging.

You’d have to prise Tailwind from my cold dead hand. I ain’t ever going back to raw css

To would-be leadership contenders, if you haven't got thought through positions that can sustain the challenges of Government on tax, Europe, the US, technology, migration, borrowing and debt, then you might as well give up now. The current PM is paying the price for decisions made in 2020.

100% this.

I love the act of voting. I dislike who I have to choose to vote for.

I have no idea who to vote for tomorrow. - Labour need a wake up call so no - Tory’s never - Reform never - Greens I could go with to try to drag Labour back to being more progressive - LibDems have always been my safe bet if in doubt but are still reeling from the Nick Clegg years sadly.

In the meantime, first reports about an attack on tankers near Novorossyisk in the Black Sea by unmanned surface vehicles (USV): t.me/oko_gora/18968

King Charles was like WTF. The look on Camilla‘s face is priceless. Dammit, I never wanted to be on Camilla‘s side.

1/ So angry. First, this is what "elections have consequences" really looks like. In addition to big stuff like wars and Liberation Day tariffs, the whole vast US machinery of state is now working everywhere, on everything, to make the world worse in every way. Thanks guys.

I seem to have picked a great day to be mostly off BlueSky. Went shopping for a new climbing Rose at David Austin. Teenager me would hate what I’ve become and I’m alright with that 😁

That’s a blast from the past. Loved this game

EA3 is one of three offshore wind farms where turbines are being erected, totalling 4 GW of sovereign power generation. We're building the wind power equivalent of a Hinkley Point C or Sizewell C nuclear power station under every two years. Hinkley Point C is expected to take 14 years to build.

📢 We've reached *3000* documented authoritarian-like actions of Trump's second term since Jan 2025... the two most recent are classic suppression of the press & using the justice system to attack political enemies www.trumpactiontracker.info

In April 1998, Macromedia released the Macromedia Fireworks 1.0 graphics program. The program was able to work with both vector and bitmap graphics and was designed specially for web designers. #WebDesignHistory

Trump is demonstrating the importance of credibility in international relations. He is not credible. He’s shown that others can’t trust what he says, and can’t act as if his stance will be the same tomorrow. He can’t communicate demands or make reliable offers. He made America’s word is worthless.

Just had a dear walk through the back garden. Pretty epic view while making a brew

Stress eating…

Saw a bat today while out on a bike ride. Left them be and hope it was alright. A lovely privilege to see one this close up though!

If there are any US constitution experts who'd like to volunteer to analyse the actions on the TrumpActionTracker from a constitutional perspective - please get in touch! It's a big undertaking but I think would provide an important lens. [email protected] www.trumpactiontracker.info

Artemis II is a thing of beauty open.substack.com/pub/iandunt/...

I am not an April fools person, not at all, but The Phoenix is the one exception. Every year they prank kids with a different ‘wrong’ magazine, and every year the dedication to the bit is outSTANDING 🫡

I think the Newt Grigrich era of gumming up the system started the desire to go for a dictator and hand over/neuter the power of congress willingly. Stop their plans getting gummed up some more (even by a handful of their own as was done with the speaker election). Just stunning the fall of a nation

Ok. My understanding of the electoral fraud situation is this. 1. Democracy volunteers put out a statement at one minute past poll close. They said this was at a level they’d not seen before

I wrote about the findings from the inquiry about the impact of the pandemic on the NHS, and the mistakes of the first year. I hope it makes you angry - it should make us all angry. open.substack.com/pub/christin...

‘Britain is not a Christian country. This is not a radical ideological statement; it is a basic demographic fact.’ Preach it. Wisdom from my spiritual guru.

The real story… under any other president this would be jail time…

I still blame Tony Blair’s “we only make up 2% of global emissions” stance for our slow renewables roll out (and the Tory’s for blocking so many wind projects and decommissioning all our gas storage). Imagine where we could be instead if we had some foresight. Sigh.

Pete Hegseth just called for the end of the First Amendment as we know it. The U.S. military belongs to all Americans regardless of their faith, or whether they practice one at all. This isn't a prayer; it’s a blueprint for a theocracy.

Big speech by John Major tonight delivering the Clement Attlee memorial lecture at Kings College. Some extracts: thinks that our electoral system may now need changing, Brexit needs revisiting.

The fun thing writing about US elections is that it's just so comically polarised. Every race is like: Republican: made millions lobbying for oil companies, has been charged with fraud, tweets racism. Democrat: was a teacher before setting up a charity for needy children. Wants free healthcare.

Beautiful statement from Ayman Odeh, Palestinian MK and head of Hadash-Taal. For those who do not read Hebrew, I will translate:

@csswizardry.com 👋 I’m after a good local web design (slash dev but they are rarer than unicorns). Know anyone?

Net zero target by 2050 will cost less than a single oil shock & bring health & economic benefits while insulating the country against future costs, the CCC have forecast. Each £ invested in reaching net zero yielded between £2 and £4 in benefits. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

A good thread on AI haters that ai wish I’d written myself.

I see the ‘patriotic’ parts of the press are delighting in a US President having a go at the PM.

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints. One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…
