    [Travel] Interesting maps

    hmm, sounds like you want a lot more and different information than the author wanted to show.

    [Misc] Are you pro or anti AI?

    it's not flippant, it's seeing the gap between expectation and delivery. GPT-4 model are 18mths old, GPT-3 which was a real game changer released early 2020. plenty of time to package up this tech into products, and sure there's some chat bots and industrial applications. so far the revenue...

    [Misc] Are you pro or anti AI?

    basically yes. there is AI (a meme not meaning anything at this stage) and Artificial General Intelligence. now if they crack AGI there will be some substantial shift in some areas, with invention, analysis, reasoning, critical thought, problem solving being offered by a machine. we are so...

    [Misc] Are you pro or anti AI?

    ah some hypothetical use, i misread as something firmer. the major investors today are software companies. they want to sell software, which other companies buy in the hope of making something easier (or just possible), and may indeed use the tech for their profit. so far there's a bottomless...

    [Misc] Are you pro or anti AI?

    where are the large revenues and profits coming from then? from what i've read the big corps are spending an awful lot, without much to show for it. very much build it and they will come phase.

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    usually sources refer to a non-brexit model to make a comparison, or it's cumlative of lower growth to date since 2020. then the number gets put next to Q-Q figures to distort the story.

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    he's saying many people on minimum (or low) wages are part-time. those jobs are greatly impacted by the reduction in NI threshold, more than the headline % NI rise. it'll probably also have an effect where companies employ a large numbers of part-timers rather than fewer full time, to avoid...

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    surprised you didn't take the opportunity to show how much worse UK growth is compared to Germany. standards are slipping.

    [Albion] Friday night trains

    it's still a weekday service, no spare coaches or drivers.

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    causing quite a lot of consternation and confusion, beyond eyebrow raising. apparently unpopular and seen as impossible to get confirmed, looks like some sort of battle set up with the Republican Party in the Senate. or some 4d chess, though Trump isn't known for that.

    [Food] Xmas Dinner at Spoons

    looks a bit crap and not particularly great value compared to rest of menu.

    [Technology] Has anybody come off of Twitter / X? How easy did you find it?

    WhatsApp sounds like a much better way to get information from selected sources anyway.

    [Technology] Has anybody come off of Twitter / X? How easy did you find it?

    new ground you say, interesting... there's no one there though. surprised as seeing some twitter quiting posts without those accounts appearing on Bluesky.

    [Albion] Eric Dier anyone?

    not sure where would fit. always thought was a player that suffered from being a good midfielder and good defender, never really excelling at either so didn't get the best out of potential.

    [Politics] Is democracy in crisis?

    unless there's a secret plan for huge nuclear roll out, along with state funding for new electric boilers and cars, dont see that's remotely achievable. i dont believe we'll achieve 81% reduction in carbon from electricity generation, before even thinking about heating and transport. the...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    thats the US system of government. their cabinet, government department leadership and many layers down are appointed by the President. thousands of posts that we'd see as impartial senior civil servants here, are political appointments because of work done in campaign. might not think its...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    it would be deep irony if they created a new branch of government to deal with inefficency wouldn't it ? :lolol: there's detail in there, not a real department and the dual leadership, i doubt Elon will have any real say on anything. chipping in, poking nose around without any real outcomes...

    [Politics] Is democracy in crisis?

    Remember you operate in a political bubble, just because some accusations are made up, doesn't make them true.

    [Travel] Trains (again), Safety

    i'd say getting Falmer was a complete success. getting around the objectors that said transport could cope was well faught battle. the alternative was staying at Withdean and stagnation in L1+L2, or worse.

    [Politics] Why wasn't Reform represented at the Cenotaph?

    is the correct answer. min 6 MPs apparently, otherwise leaders attend out of the way. funny in twitterland they are trying to whip up a conspiracy he was banned.
