The Times finds it "unacceptable" that people who came here legally in 2021 and have been living and working here since should allowed to stay. The sad decline of a once great newspaper into ignorant xenophobia and casual racism

Weāve been watching Wolf Hall, a fascinating study of how the fragile male ego of a fickle, greedy despot creates a culture of deep cruelty and mistrust, where everyone lives in fear of saying the wrong thing. Thank goodness weāve moved on from those times.

Wrote a bit more about how the *process of making software* is a social activity before it is a technical activity, and AI tools alienating us from that social activity directly undermine our ability to make software.

I don't speak much French, but let me tell you that you don't need to when Ethmebb's new album is SO GOOD. Absolutely all over the place stylistically, but start at blackened, progressive death metal and work out from there. Very, very silly! Brilliant stuff!
