I’d have thought UCL, with the JB connection, was a natural home for it!

This is hard to watch. Could tell in first five mins the 343 wasn’t working, but with the switch to 433 the back 4 look nervy af and we’re still getting dominated in the middle.

Was going to say surely not that bad, but… Not our day today.

Killie good value for their lead here. Disappointing from United.

That's the worst Aberdeen side I've seen in a long time. Confidence shot to pieces, beaten to everything by a United side that are just fizzing right now. Very enjoyable.

Mass rally on Heroes' Square in Budapest, one of the iconic destinations in Hungary. In the foreground a Hungarian flag and thousands and thousands of people, under dark skies, in the background lit up historical monuments and museums

Meanwhile in Budapest, Hungary: a very sizeable rally at Heroes' Square, as the organisers said "For free public spaces and clean public discourse." They declared they do not want to accept that Hungarians' everyday lives have to be full of divisive messages, fear-mongering, and hate campaigns.

Heartbreaking, but not unexpected news. Words can’t express how much inspiration and support Keith (JD Twitch) provided me and countless others over the years. I was lucky to visit him last month and made him a promise I intend to keep. Godspeed Keith - I’ll miss you x

As far as I'm aware, we weren't consulted. I spent a disproportionate amount of my time dealing with students who were misusing AI last year, especially first years, and anticipate having to do so again this year. The message that this partnership with OpenAI sends to students is, umm, unhelpful.

There’s considerable overlap, yes.

UPDATE: when Mesolithic people roamed this now-drowned landscape, they should have been able to see a 2-mile-wide crater - and this seems to be the cause of it: www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

Wow!

IME: Few students use it to generate text. Those that do tend to be students that are struggling already, for various reasons, and often developed dependencies at school. Other students use it as a shortcut with difficult texts. Few admit to using it, but worst cases persist even when challenged.

Yes, though I hope without institutional encouragement coming over the heads of the people who, you know, actually teach them.

Wel this is going to make the introductory meetings with the first years a bit awkward.

This week has had serious Steve McLaren/Rishi Sunak with/without an umbrella vibes.

Kucherenko getting some stick for today but if it wasn’t for him, the score would’ve probably have been, err… 3-3.

I’ve seen them given, but I think it was a fair challenge.

Depending on how the rest of the game pans out, I imagine there’ll be much chat about that second Hibs goal. For the record: I reckon it was a goal. No foul on Sevelj in the build up and, obvs, no offside, as Sevelj touched it through.

Elon, speaking at the Tommy Robinson march today: β€œThis is a government against the people and not for the people, this is why everyone is gathered here today…we don’t have another four years…there’s got to be a dissolution of parliament”

And the government just…continues to use X.

Think it’s always been likely he’d cost us a goal now and again, but I’m impressed by his mindset: he doesn’t seem the type to let it get to him. And he can pull off saves like that.
