for anyone wondering, to actually pass the threshold for treason the piddingtonians would have to show some kind of violent intent and storm the military base or something, so it's definitely possible, I just have a funny feeling they wouldn't actually want to wage war with their precious monarch

many social media managers will encourage you to spread your posts throughout the day but why do that when you have 500 thoughts and you could just literally post them all at the same time

I understand that a lot of programmers are using ai to write large amounts of code much faster. but do I like it? no. and do I understand why programmers are so hellbent on destroying their own craft (they are) when so many of them built their whole careers around it? also no

Seems to me that the practice of “regulation” in Britain boils down to just installing The Right Sort Of Chaps, insiders who know how the game is played and won’t make a fuss, and will just have a quiet chat instead, if anyone gets a bit fast and loose with the rules.

lotta people on here seem to think that now the writing is on the wall for farage that this is somehow the end of reform. we know right wing losers transfer their loyalty very easily, like how so many of them are jumping to the even more right wing parties. so basically nothing will change

someone in a chat I'm in said, paraphrased, "there's a lot of programmers who think that they, the Smart People, know how to use AI for good and everything ELSE is slop but claude code doesn't count" and yeah that is DEF the direction I'm seeing people pivot to dodge resistance against AIgen lately

Hey @andyburnham.bsky.social, now you're the PM, can you say anything about your specific plans to protect trans people in the UK and end the discrimination of the NHS and other organisations in government? It's really good to more major UK politicians be active on bsky.

Girlfriend booked us a quiet UK getaway. On the way, I gingerly said "Given how close we are to the station, there's a good chance -" and she interrupted with "to see the new Class 810 Auroras, yes, that's why I chose it." She was never previously in to trains. She's the one.

UK Bluesky is normally really easy to follow, except the one week a month it descends into incomprehensible screaming because someone from North Flobershire dared refer to themselves as a Galbrilander despite their nan having actually been born south of Brookingsmarch-on-the-Tarrowack.
