This is utterly outrageous by the Group of Eight unis, and deeply insulting and undermining for environment and climate experts trying their hardest to achieve a more sustainable future for society. Shameful stuff.

19 wickets in Day 1 on a pitch that rally had no demons in it suggests a combination of good bowling and a fair bit of bad batting #Ashes

Head, Green, Starc and Carey really failed to show mettle.

Weatherald and Khawaja got crackers

Laubuschagne won’t want to see his replay.

Smith got out like he often does early in his innings.

England were up for the fight. Intimidated Australia #Ashes

If Majorie Taylor Greene really wants to move past the politics of hate and lies she should apologize to David Hogg and the other student survivors of mass shooting who she stalked and accused of being crisis actors.

Which would be the right, and politically smart, thing to do.

Yep, Mark Waugh is right, neither side has batted well. Starc again with a stupid shot on nothing delivery #Ashes

So annoyed Head got out when he did. The ball is finally starting to look soft. #Ashes

You can’t assess a wicket until both sides have batted like shit on it #TheCricket

I guess we have an answer to the "Can you prepare a Test match wicket 20 days after a Metallica concert?" question. #Ashes

They haven’t. It’s a pretty recent thing. Barmy Army have a very strong nationalist wanker pricks vibe.

Bit like Aussie footy trip in Bali.

I Set A Trap To Catch My Students Cheating With AI. The Results Were Shocking. "Students are not just undermining their ability to learn, but to someday lead."

To β€œmy students and to anyone who might listen, I say: Don’t surrender to AI your ability to read, write and think when others once risked their lives and died for the freedom to do so.”

Mark Kelly: "He's talked about sending troops into more cities, he's talked about invoking the Insurrection Act. You don't have to go too far back to his 1st administration when he went to his Sec Def & said, 'Can't we just shoot these protesters in the legs.' That is an example of an illegal order"

AI's blind spot: tools fail to detect their own fakes.

Internet users are increasingly turning to chatbots to verify images, but the tools often fail, raising questions about their debunking capabilities at a time when major tech platforms are scaling back human fact-checking
