The struggle as a late stage mediocre data professional is that I am called up because of my technical skills, judged on my ability to solve business problems, and remembered because of my storytelling and visualisation chops. But I am mediocre at all and master of none! 🫣 #dataviz #databs

#running community - is there any point to the Runna app? I did a 2 week free run plan (free) then rest of 10 weeks is not free… There was nothing original/ revelatory in the freebie… advice / feedback / thoughts on the app would be very welcome. 🙏

Since 2001, US NATO allies have lost more than 1,000 troops in Afghanistan. “They died in solidarity with us, for the Alliance and the values it defends,” said Daniel Fried, who worked in the George W Bush NSC office. Denmark was one of the first to send their troops to defend America.

Retrospective removal of Indefinite Leave to Remain from "hundreds of thousands of people" in the Reform plans is obscene. They talk about "preventing disruption to businesses" but have no regard for what this means for the people themselves, their families and communities which will be torn apart.

Screenshot from The Times which reads: "Zia Yusuf, Reform’s policy chief, said that his party’s changes would lead to “hundreds of thousands of people having to apply [for] and ultimately losing their settled status in the UK” on a staggered basis to prevent disruption to businesses.

Writing in The Daily Telegraph, Yusuf said: “Many of those who will lose their leave to remain are entirely dependent on the welfare state and will leave voluntarily upon losing access to benefits. Those that don’t will be subject to immigration enforcement as part of our mass deportation programme.”

But a white guy with a COVID conspiracy manifesto isn’t news at this point. After all, that’s who runs the government now! The CDC is a part of Health & Human Services, headed by RFK Jr., whose conspiracy-addled ideology is indistinguishable from the motivations of this terrorist.

The CDC shooting was public health’s Jan. 6

“In RFK Jr.’s America, it will never be safe to practice public health or medicine," write an epidemiologist and a former CDC staffer.
