Back up in the air and have that small anxiety which comes with having just finished a great book and so gambling on a good start to the next one.

It’s not the bots that are taken out, it’s that the tools the people who run them use (and maybe the services that get them to work) are offline.

Let the gaslighting that there are no bots begin.

I finally get why every man now carries a sling bag. Baggy trousers came back, and nothing stays in your pockets once you sit down.

Have we considered encouraging more central bankers to become politicians?

While Siri is generally terrible at dictation. How am I just realising that it's about 75% better when I hold the phone about a millimetre from my mouth?

Turning notifications off on my iPhone for various apps is a legitimate hobby.

I find it curious Canada already shares a border with France. Saint-Pierre and Miquelon sit 25 km off Newfoundland. French passports, French gendarmes, euros in the tills. Worth remembering as Ottawa tilts towards Europe.

The Reform scandal won't make any difference. The media will horse race them right into government and more Brexit like catastrophe for the UK. Consequences are for the competent in the British system.

Ah okay, I was wondering if the nanotech was being used to influence memory or visuals.

Even I wanted him to nationalise Thames Water. How are these career politicians so bad at politics?

The increasingly meagre size of the paper edition of The New York Times I come across in the many hotels I stay at makes me sad.

I've now realised the best reason to not have a case on your iPhone is the discipline of only using it when you're not moving. 😐😂

A week in Copenhagen with partners and customers. Talked the summer market (literally hot), all things AI, and how to free up way too busy shipping folks to manage risk and grab opportunity in a messy market. Highlight: deck time at our Hellerup office. #Maritime #MaritimeAI
