"“These are stormy times for quality journalism … On more and more platforms, serious content vies for attention with fake news, cat videos and conspiracy theories.” And LLMs will soon feed on them, post truth? Oldest newspaper prints final edition theguardian.com/media/2023/jul… #AI

If you want to understand Brexit, Johnson and the support for this corrupt lot, you need to start seeing that this was/is a land of large number of scammers, which were contained by EU regulations. And now they also have the brutal Cabinet example that being dirty pays...

It misses that most Mickey Mouth degrees are studied at Oxbridge, but their graduates get high paid jobs due to family connections or the university name The Guardian view on 'rip-off' degrees: another low-value government intervention | Editorial theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Everyone is discussing the obscene moral, human and legal implications of this, the key is that "A private firm has been handed a £1.6bn contract to manage" it. #corruption Migrant barge with less living space than a parking bay arrives in Dorset independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

Wasn't the Tory party in favour of banks' self-regulation (or deregulation)? Since when is government business to whom a bank opens or closes an account? Will intervene in every worker's case where accounts/loans are denied? #corruptUK msn.com/en-gb/news/ukn…

Just finished another meeting where the issue of how to design HE assessment that fends-off AI was discussed, with me saying "what about adapting and embracing instead of fending-off?" Even the most forward-thinking tend to not see that some old assessment methods need to go #AI

Is today some sort of spam/phishing day? I got dozens of emails related to rewards from airlines or companies with which I have no relation at all... #phishing #scams

The titles of the "second jobs" say it all: just corruption to enact policies that benefit those companies, or paying back what they already did (like on the the case of Boris) #corruptUK MPs paid £10m for second jobs and freelance work over past year theguardian.com/politics/2023/…

Celebrar el "ganar" las PASO (en realidad son para dirimir quien va a ser el candidato de tal o cual partido para la elección real), es como ir a comprar ropa de bebé después de masturbarse #ARGENTINAPASO

Prohibit MPs second jobs and change the rules about from whom they can get money after they leave government, and all this nonsense will disappear #ToryCorruption Michael Gove defends plans to weaken water pollution protections theguardian.com/politics/live/…

There are circa 500 breeds of dogs in the world, and in UK more than 50% of the deaths are caused by ONE breed and in US 76% by two breeds, but it is not the breed, is the nurture? WTF Banning some dog breeds in the UK won’t stop attacks on humans theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/s…

Yet another example of how The Guardian is loosing any credibility. When it has an agenda, facts don't matter much. Skip the "article" and read the comments for well thought arguments Should American bully XLs really be banned? | Zoe Williams theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

In addition to the dubious employment practices, in Europe Uber would have serious issues with false/misleading advertising. In order for you to agree the pickup, it says the driver is x minutes away, and 20-30 minutes later still says that is almost there #unfairpractices

If you have a doubt who Rishi Sunak works for, now he made it clear: not the voter not the UK (although he is consistent, as he also lies as previous PMs) #shamelessPM #lookingforaleader UK net zero policies: what has Rishi Sunak scrapped? theguardian.com/politics/2023/…

After several, many, interactions with the system, it will be hard to convince me that many (most?) doctors in the system are not working towards NHS privatisation. Nothing to do with funding: plain, obvious and obscene disdain and negligence

I’m proud to be one of 1,176 letter co-signatories calling on MPs to back the #CANBill in this week’s private members’ bill ballot. The time for science-led legislation to tackle the climate-nature crisis is now. Ed Miliband Steve Reed zerohour.uk/scientist_lett…
