Gosh, folks. I can’t figure out who to support here. The guy whose military snipers shoot children and who bombs innocent people in their homes or the guy who fixes potholes and feeds the hungry.

It’s also (sort of) the 939th anniversary of William ‘Conqueror’ I dying because the king of France called him fat. Well, according to Chambers’ Book of Days it was the 10th, even though pretty much every other source says 9th (but we were busy yesterday with Mary Whitehouse)

www.theguardian.com/technology/2... I never use AI – mainly because reading, understanding, identifying key points and summarising is what I do for a living, but also because I never fell for the 'it will never develop independent thoughts or actions' line. Seems the robots didn't fall for it either

It is...annoying. I think a new rule should be that if you vote against a benefit for others...you should not get said benefit. No paid sick leave...then you don't get any paid sick leave. No free healthcare for others...then you pay for yours. No guaranteed retirement for others? None for you.

People tell me they like suits but don't have occasions to wear one. You can wear a suit to court, funerals, and religious services. Doesn't have to be your trial, friend's burial, or religion you believe in. Go to random trials, attend a stranger's burial, join multiple religions. Try it sometime.
