Final stage of 30 year project to save humanity from itself. A swansong project launching in '26. Lucky at 72 to have a purpose worth dying for. Relief not having to prove I am somebody anymore. Just being mindful and compassionate is good enough.

I agree, albeit I am pro-independence. Don't see how politics based on weaponizing 'us v them' will now ever serve us. We are not our preferences and opinions. The archaic political system is actively subverting human capacity. It is the problem, The 26% who voted Reform is the warning sign.

Three, albeit I have lived and worked in all four countries which is surely far more valuable for any research.

Excellent article. I would add, if you zoom out, this back-of-the-curve-fear-swarming is replete. Easy to exploit via us-v-them narratives. Fingernails clutching at straws have to lose their grip before 'we all' wakeup to our responsibilities. Humanity is currently threading a fine line.

A health system is a life-enabling systems, not a another man-made system requiring top-down control. #NHS needs to be allowed to express itself at every level - to self-organise. Employees know what is needed. Politicians don't. Give them the resources and back-off. @keepournhspublic.bsky.social

Google and Microsoft's myopic desperation to advance their LLM models. I can no longer trust them to not scrape intellectual capital. Although our work on a new Internet is essentially altruistic, it is not a free-for-all. We need survive. Perplexed why others are not concerned about this?

I ask myself what can a 70+ oldy offer others? I changed my handle from twitter to enter a beginner's mind once again, a newby. Since our youthful protests in the late 60's we saw what was coming. The many do have the power over the few. We have the courage, they don't. There is a way through this!

Good morning.

Word of the Day is as beautiful as it is underused. β€˜Confelicity’ is finding joy in the happiness and success of others.
