Did I say they should have been 3-0 up? Didn't mean that. Obviously agree that the course of the game changes if the second (disallowed) is given, so who knows.

on fighting talk just now, one panellist claimed they were “world class” at knowing when a minute had passed so rick edwards started a timer and turned to the other panellists. the guy interrupted someone else’s answer to say “now!” at 1’00

Stumbled across this piece I wrote 11 years ago about young men (well, young people) becoming disillusioned with politics. Disappointingly I think most of the arguments still hold... www.shortlist.com/news/why-are...

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

I can't remember what I said (or anything, these days), but surely 'Jannick Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, world number one and world number two respectively' would be correct, and useful? Without 'respectively' the attribution of the seeding would be unclear...

@clairewillett

honestly the best marketing scheme in history is men successfully getting away with calling women the "more emotional" gender for like, EONS, because they've successfully rebranded anger as Not An Emotion

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.
