This is such a good article. When I was a teenager, I was swept away by this bombastic idea of Richard Feynman discovering the O-ring problem with sheer ingenuity. In reality, engineers knew and tried to stop the launch. Sally Ride was the one who gave him the tip. www.abc.net.au/news/science...

I signed up to the government's AI Skills Boost Hub to check its suite of courses and I am sad to report that the free AI training looks even worse than the thread below suggests aiskillshub.org.uk/aiskillsboost/

Need some alone time. Thinking of going to see the Melania movie... 😂

BREAKING: TikTok settles a landmark social media addiction lawsuit just before the trial was set to begin in Los Angeles.

Last year, a human trafficking victim trapped in a crypto scam compound in the Golden Triangle region of Laos contacted me. He then proceeded to leak to me a huge collection of the compound's internal materials. Then he had to get out alive. This is his story. 🧵👇 www.wired.com/story/he-lea...

be nice if Chris Mason et al were able to pause their attempts to write soap opera storylines and paid attention to their favourite boy’s plans

The DFE’s new 2026 AI standards are less concerned with what an AI shows a child and far more interested in what prolonged interaction with an AI does to a child’s mind.

The defection of Suella Braverman, who was sacked twice from Government in disgrace, spent £700m of taxpayers' money to send four volunteers to Rwanda on a deportation scheme that was then scrapped and has a public approval rating of minus 32 is currently being described as a "major coup" for Reform

That feeling when a famous person dies, and you thought they'd been dead for years? That's how I feel every time a Tory defects to Reform

Rumours circulating around Westminster that the next Reform defections could be Davros, Skeletor, Saruman the White, and Mark Francois.

Throwback to that time Reach Out CPD won a Bett award. Still annoyed at the new owners messing about with it online. Buy the book instead, it's got all the good bits from Reach Out, updated for 2026. #bettawards #primaryscience

Skyscraper Live on Netflix. Holy crap

Esther Ghey is facilitating the rewriting of history. The circumstances of Brianna’s death are being rewritten to obscure the fact that she was murdered for being trans. It is mentioned not once in this article. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is an *exceptional* piece of work, and ought to be borne in mind when looking at literally any online ragebait in future. A TikTok account that professed to be highlighting how 'illegal immigrants get free housing in London' was… well, not that at all. www.londoncentric.media/p/tiktok-lon...

The people running the most powerful country in the world don't even know there are no penguins in the arctic.

A great night - thanks!

Love #teachmeet life Lovely to be part of 20 year of TM @dawnhallybone.bsky.social and @dannynic.bsky.social kicking things off by getting everyone to agree to host a TM in 26

Teachmeet Bett 2026 is ready to roll. We're handily next to the "food court" if you can't find us #tmbett26

“We’ve invented a magic computer. It uses all of the earth’s resources, we’ve spent trillions on it and it’s the sole growth area of the US economy.” “What does it do?” “We were hoping you could tell us.”

Arrived at Bett. Important things first....

Appalled to your core by what Trump's fascist henchmen are doing in the United States? Well, read for yourself: Nigel Farage wants to repeat it in the United Kingdom.

It's almost time for TeachMeet BETT 2026. Kicking off the 20th year of Teachmeets. No sign up needed to attend, you'll just need a Bett Show ticket to get into ExCel. We'll be in the Table Talk area. #tmbett26 #teachmeet #bettshow #bett2026 #teachmeet20

"Without us you'd all be speaking German", Donald Trump tells an audience in Davos, in Switzerland. Where the most common language is German.

Primary Teachers! If you’re making plans for science week in March and want to do something cross-curricular (science, art, literacy, PHSE), my picturebook “How to Find a Rainbow” would make a great focus for KS1. Happy to share resources / ideas for free if you contact me.

Who looks at Trump’s chaos and dangerous stupidity and goes, "Oh yeah, that's great! I'll absolutely attach myself to that!" When Nigel Farage is calling in sick and even fantasy hiker Dan Hannan is distancing himself from this absurd madman, you know MAGA and its uk acolytes are in trouble.

Watching slow horses S2. Getting annoyed at someone clearly shown outside fenchurch street station, getting on a train and somehow heading to Orpington....
