the report, from professionals in the relevant fields, says that ADHD and autism is under-diagnosed and people affected by that are not given enough support in an appropriate and timely manner. but that’s not the result the government wants, so that means the spin apparatus has chosen this form.

Can the latest version of Eliza on the ZX Spectrum feel empathy? It at least behaves as if it does, according to a guy who typed in the magazine code listing for it after installing a new Cheetah 32K rampack.
Hi! Spectrum Player 1
I'm Eliza. What's your problem?
I do not really have many problems
Are you saying no, just to be negative?
No I am being honest I really feel OK today
Did you come to me because you are being honest you really feel OK today
Well not really
You are being a bit negative.

If you went into a bank and asked for a loan, saying you’d put the proceeds into a savings account, they’d think you were a bit cracked. On a macro scale, that’s what Ireland is doing. This week’s column for @thejournal.ie:
jrnl.ie
€7.8 billion set aside for Ireland’s future in Budget 2027 means we're borrowing to save money
As the dust settles on the budget, isn’t it notable that Ireland is putting billions into long-term funds while borrowing money to pay the bills?

Gyms for our brains
Tweet from @andruyeung

We created gyms because modern day work no longer required physical activity. Without exercise, our muscles atrophy.

I predict we’ll need gyms for our brains too, once AI starts doing our knowledge work.

Being real, if you're remotely familiar with some of the laws that do that, it's very obvious that it's basically inherently suspicious to do so. They're basically always used as a trojan horse or tools of moral panic.
