Ministers are exploring triggering the break clause in Palantir's NHS contract. Foxglove are looking for folks to ‘sign’ an open letter calling on Wes Streeting to get Palantir out of the NHS. www.foxglove.org.uk/campaigns/we...
Trump ranting about the war he's waging on the people of Iran while standing next to the Easter Bunny is going to be one of those videos I think about for a long time.
It's good Claude let's us focus on the above for this particular activity for our 5 and 7 yr olds. I'm sure another activities can look into teaching them code, etc.
Most importanly, they made an atual thing, they enjoyed! Without slaving beyond their capacity, or me doing 95% of the work... 2/4
In just 1.5 hours, the kids and I made 2 games (2 HTML files) suing Claude.
Worth a proper write up that I may not get to. But my 2 cents are that the learning objectives are exactly as they should be for now: planning, reasoning, problem solving etc. Not about typos, knowing complex html etc 1/4
The 5-year-old keeps telling us off for dropping our T's when saying 'what'. 🫣
Hope you get well soon!
The parallels between this and how many orgs design products / services! The whole outputs vs outcomes is arguably systemic. It’s ok though, on the front of it, the show goes on and perceived success is achieved.

'I was looking after some goats... I gave the goat a dose of tea, in 2 mins it was all over, tea did the trick, she had 3 kids' ❤️😀
JFC! The right already stripped abortion rights from millions of women. Contraception is next.
Project 2025 made the agenda clear. This was never about saving babies. It’s about control, pushing women back into submission and forcing more births.

Heard of a scenario where a director level person responsible for transformation type work asked how the team go from user feedback to deploying (absolute basics). And he was completely shocked to hear that’s ’how long things take’.
This particular director is an ex-consultant from the big ones.
Love it! Quick, go nab the wikipedia page!
Is there a word for the following? When folk share inspirational posts about how to do product / design / dev well. But completely miss that they're doing the very thing the article says not to do.
A Service Designer showed me how he very quickly got Co-pilot to create a product overview video based on a word doc he put together. It wasn't perfect, but it did the job.
The 'I' and 'now' does the heavy lifting in that sentence.
I've had a few discussions with immigrants, and kids of immigrants who say this sort of shit. There's a lot to pick apart. And yet so much of it ends up circling back to selfsihness and self-grandure.

Nothing that there are a couple of weeks left for people to apply for a digital job that could be make or break for the NHS Director General for Technology, Digital and Data

Here’s a screenshot as I’m pretty sure no one clicks past the ‘I’m not a robot’ page.
Managed to keep away from Liquid Glass this far. Then accepted an update at 5am in the morning after my kid woke me.
Oh, interesting. That I will bag.
I'll take it - anything to support my Friday morning theory 😀
A bet: at some point, most of us will work with at least one person who was once a primary or secondary school teacher.
Arguably more likely to happen in gov.
Sadly, because if they don't, Farage and his lot will be in charge?
Truth be said, we all deserve better. But look at what happened across the pond when decent people just gave up. And others gave in to their worst traits.
‘But in the 2020s, not validating ideas is amateurish.’
Interesting, nice share!
It’s a great sculpture isn’t it. You probably already know but just in case, it’s a good prompt to learn about Birmingham’s history with bull baiting and industrialism.
