Starting a UX design trend of ironic skeumorphism. All the cheesy material textures of 2008 but they are all wrong.

Leather form fields. Denim sliders. Glossy plastic backgrounds with paper trim. It will be so horrible that it will cure screen addiction.

Have written a few things about this, but Britain's cultural bias against investing in stocks (and obvious property obsession) is culturally fascinating but also really bad for national well-being.

OpenAI: We’re burning money like the Joker. A miracle needs to happen for us to turn a profit

Microsoft: Please please use our AI systems, we’re teetering on the edge here

Anthropic: I wonder what’ll kill us first: lawsuits, regulations or model collapse

Media and universities: AI is here to stay

I feel like I’ve fallen out of love with cybersecurity.

It used to be, to me, about protecting people. Now it’s just become an endless grind of people trying to protect budgets through GenAI fear. So much of cybersecurity now is just total nonsense.

Zuckerberg believing everyone was like him and craved isolation from human contact to the extent he wasted a trillion dollars building a shitty virtual mall is the key to understanding how completely the superich are insulated from even the faintest whisper of reality

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Buying or selling a HF Rig? Watch Rob Sherwood First!! How-to knowledge. YouTube video by G3LRC’s Ham Radio

This is a brilliant interview of Rob Sherwood by G3LRC. Rob talks about how his famous receiver table is often misinterpreted and there is a fascinating section on direct sampling SDRs, which if you have one, is worth your time.
