I'm old enough to remember when they stood on a stage promoting larger families.

(it was yesterday).

This was a good interview - he states that he goes around calling people "liar" when he knows nothing about them.

He also implies that "people in politics" (i.e. him) say any old thing that should not be taken seriously.

"Cyber" seems to be their preface for a product that they've dreamt up without asking if anyone wants it.

His rise in the polls along with his rise in funding seem to have made him increasingly bad tempered, thin skinned and arrogant.

(Much like Trump).

Yes, they'd go full on "fake news" unless the media in question was owned by one of their mates like Paul Marshall.

Enjoyed this one - interesting to know whether Figma is really a case of AI eating their business or whether it was just overvalued in the first place (or both)?

Also interesting to think about how some of the big s/w players (with s/w margins) have effectively become h/w players...

It'd be interesting to separate the filming from the sharing because the UK is constantly filming people without consent.

Didn't he, erm, emigrate?

Isn't his football team made up of players from all over the world?

Sounds like they aren't very good at planning and I suspect that's quite a theme within "remote working" - organisations that don't want to plan or document properly struggle when staff aren't in the room.

But...does that make them good organisations?

The only conclusion being that we have politicians who much prefer factional infighting to the real business of trying to run the country and the media both stirs it up and then laps it up.

If we end up with Farage, it'll be the direct fault of the "broad churches" of the Tory and Labour parties.

Does turning off the keyless entry to the car such that the user has to press a button to transmit the signal (perhaps while looking for people trying to 'record' it) help?
