It’s very loud in Kyiv.
Explosions.
Missiles and drones.

I don’t know what else to say.

A dark, horrific night for Kyiv. I can hardly remember russia ever bombing this many apartment buildings in a single terrorist attack here.

A hard night in Kyiv.
We’re under massive attack.

The mayor reports damage across the city.
It feels like being trapped inside a strange game –
only this game is reality.

2:43 am in Kyiv.
The awful attack continues.
I don’t want to repeat the same words.
I’ll write to you in the morning –
I hope it comes.

We are in a stock market 'tech bubble', driven in large part by over-investment in AI companies.

It's starting to unravel and the downside will be like 1987.

It should be a fun few months...

I'm rather ambivalent about e-Bikes, but the fact is that (most) can still be pedaled fairly well without electricity plus anyone on an e-bike is someone *not* in a car, which IMHO is a good thing

It wasn't an 'error'. It was a deliberate step taken to promote a specific narrative. (Even if that narrative is actually the truth, it was at best deceptive to do it the way that they did)

Plus it gives a stick for Farage, Trump and other far-right commentators to attack with.

More than halfway now on my #eBike4Australia ride from Canberra to Brisbane for AlterCOP 30 Australia.

Smashed out 800km since Sunday and have another 600km to go.

To be fair, it has been an economically deprived area for decades, well before Brexit.

Not at all - everyone has a right to privacy and Google has a vested interest in eliminating it.

Are there any plans to introduce a gender-neutral German? If so, on behalf of all German language students, please eliminate the “Sie” and “Du” forms too! 😎

Greetings from Kyiv,
where the night was calm.

I finished writing Sunday Letter
and went for warcoffee at a bookstore –
found a treasure: History of Ukraine by Mykhailo Hrushevskyi,
the historian and statesman who shaped modern Ukrainian identity.
First published in 1921.

You are using Google forms. That means no anonymity for most people.

Google should be avoided.

Which is no different to the US. The EU must treat both powers as adversaries. Neither can be trusted.

It looks suspiciously like a Trump toupé. Aptly named.

Mate of twenty years has cut me off because he thinks I'm trying to sleep with his other half. Tried to explain I think she's an terribly unattractive, but this seems to have made things worse.

@lufthansagroup.bsky.social fly some really ancient planes. Currently on an Airbus 320-100 that is 29 years old.

Indeed - response stayed good. Hosted by Hetzner is what I was told.

Still didn’t get any tickets though. 😩

There is a poor little ticketing server in Germany that is about to be thrashed to the very limits at 11:00:00 CET

Warcoffee time in Kyiv.
I visited two exhibitions today,
and now I’m resting among books.

Ukraine is an amazing country.
I’m here to tell you about it.

Next year I’m determined to cycle there and have my own war coffee, even if it’s only as far as Lviv.

Fantasy-land, for young and old.

In much the same ways as many advanced weapons from the US can be disabled remotely.

Not only is the EU totally dependent on US IT services, it’s dependent on the US for defence and, increasingly, AI.

This is strategically worse than depending on Russia for oil & gas.

Tardigrade - Wikipedia

Tardigrades. Fascinating creatures. Impossibly robust, violent, found everywhere and extremely small too.

It also calls into serious question the economics of the “Snowy 2” hydroelectric scheme.

I need two tickets for #39C3.

Any help out there ?
