My nerdy friend Tim just got a PhD on the history of palindromes. We now call him Dr. Awkward.

The Sky News investigation into X was a robust, qualitative study providing incontrovertible evidence of something we suspected was true. Now we have the evidence. It's a shame some people are knocking really good journalism.

We’re still waiting for the judge to figure out the jury instructions. Definitions can take time! Thankfully, he need not rule on the distinction among hoagie, sub and grinder.

Great thread for #TeamCompSci I know @advanced-ict.info will be on this like a shot, with a coded solution :)

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy - they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” - The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald.

I've been saying this for two years. Why are we governed by people that still use X? "It’s hard not to connect this to the fact that much of the political class remains on a platform now dominated by the political extremes. They might do well to remember: Twitter is not the real world."

This is a new low even for the billionaire-owned propaganda machines that have replaced the free press in America. It means somewhat less than 0.03% of the impact of all cars on the road globally. So no actual impact worth discussing. This is disgusting ableist pro-fossil-fuel disinfo from @cnn.com

This is the thing they'll never understand about "wokeness" or "political correctness" - huge organizations didn't implement these policies because of "cancel culture" or secret communists, they did it to stay competitive and viable. It's what people wanted

We had a great day at #PyConUK2025, where we delivered a workshop for young people - teaching them to code a program to notify them when the ISS is above! 🛰️ We chose this project from our brand new APIs curriculum, which you can access at missionencodeable.com/get-started #TeamCompSci @pyconuk.org

Huge shout out for @lessonhacker.bsky.social's Knowledge Bytes series on the @craigndave.bsky.social YouTube channel. Great for helping with those tricky technical questions from the kid who builds their own PC! Entertaining and informative too! youtube.com/playlist?lis... #CASchat #TeamCompSci

Ada Lovelace Day is on Tuesday 14 October this year, which might seem like a long way away, but if you’re organising an indie event, it’s practically right round the corner. So why not start thinking about what you're doing to do for ALD and get organising!

Day 2 at #AIEOU @ox.ac.uk #TeamCompSci #UkTeachers #ai

I'm at #AIEOU at @ox.ac.uk, what an incredible collection of experts. No idea what I'm doing here. 😂

Apart from anything else, nobody ever denied that tanks on the street would deter crime. It's a given. But at what cost? Utterly terrified citizens, false arrests, risk of injury and death. And when the tanks roll out of town nothing has changed. Don't let the "crime in DC is down" message fool you.
