Matthias Wandel has turned the Raspberry Pi Pico's PIO blocks into a surprisingly sensitive capacitance sensor — capable of not only tracking proximity in free air but through a wooden floor too.
Screenshot of a tweet: God Save Great Britain & @GSGB01 WOW: The NHS has ordered staff not to use the phrase 'It's raining cats & dogs' in fear of upsetting people from other cultures and religion. Britain has gone absolutely
Screenshot of a tweet: @Jenny_1884 The NHS has ordered staff not to use the term "It's raining cats & dogs" as it may offend foreigners. Tough If you don't like it jog on is what I think The NHS needs to get back to concentrating on making people better & not being more concerned about offending
For the love of God, could the "common sense" brigade PLEASE develop some actual COMMON SENSE?!
No, the NHS has not ordered staff not to use the term "it's raining cats and dogs" for fear of either upsetting or offending anyone...
Please engage your brains for a minute🙏

These webinars are coming up soon. Very grateful for any shares! Thank you.
Dudes. As a society we taught young women to walk with keys between their fingers in dark parking lots and to carry pepper spray in their purse.
So yes. I’m asking you to be responsible for the actions of other men. After all, that’s what you’ve asked of women for centuries.
It’s your turn.
Isn't that just potato waffles?*
*They're waffley versatile 😊
**Why can I never find the musical note emoji? 🙄
Firstly, I wouldn't want to have to paint those ceilings!!
And secondly, having the pool table next to the orangery is going to play havoc with the lighting when you're playing, not to mention that the cloth is going to get ruined with the temperature changes.
The message that Reform aim to dismantle our tax-funded NHS really needs to get out there. The NHS really matters to people, and they don't realise the implications of Farage's insurance plans.
The Tisun Three 2021 tax reconciliation showing the dividend exemption eliminating tax.
Richard Tice applied for his Quidnet company to become a REIT. It then paid no tax.
But the price was that the four "Tisun" companies holding shares in Quidnet REIT had to pay tax on their dividends. They didn't.
(here's the accounts from one of them)
Today's target was to get my Midi keyboard to control the PSGs. Only monotonic sofar.
When Angela Rayner underpaid £40,000 in stamp duty, Richard Tice said it was "morally completely indefensible” and she should resign if she had “any moral decency”.
Now we learn he set up four shell companies that let him avoid paying £100,000 he owed in tax and to then transfer the cash to Reform
Nah, something like that could never happen, could it? Surely there are robust processes in place to stop that sort of thing?
And he assured us that that they had the strictest vetting processes for their candidates 😏
Reform UK in Worcestershire just elected Alan Amos as their Leader.
He’s been Conservative, Labour, Independent, Conservative (again) and now Reform UK.
Basically a political weather vane.
He’s the guy that stated rape allegations are in effect ‘easy to make up’

Idk if anyone here enjoys articles discussing how infrastructure and housing affect social behaviour but if you can maybe find someone, do share this thoughtful data-rich piece entitled What is a City without Children as.ft.com/r/d10db957-a...
The number of people crossing by small boat this year compared to last year. The fall is very real and not seasonal. Little difference in numbers during the winter but since numbers increased in spring, half as many people are coming as this time last year. This is mainly because of European trends.
GB News headline: GP who asked Muslim woman to remove her veil 'because he was struggling to understand her' is struck off.
Was this GP struck off just because he asked a Muslim woman to remove her veil?
How likely does that sound? 🤷♀️
Did he actually ask her to remove her veil 'because he was struggling to understand her?'
Let's take a look at what really happened based on the tribunal reports...

It would need more investment in public transport / active travel though, especially for those working unsociable hours.

An ovoid robot with banded arms and legs, waving a conductor's baton in one hand. It is wearing a little bowtie and a cummerbund and has its eyes closed as if lost in the music. It stands on raised, cuboid podium. The Small Robots Remastered logo is in a fancy, copperplate-style font, because both it and the robot felt they needed to show a bit of class.

A subway style map on a parchment background. The map's title reads: "Narnia Transit Map: Talking Beasts Ride Free." The map has seven keys, one for each of the seven books in C.S. Lewis's Narinia series. The main movements of characters and action in each book are traced by colored lines, like a subway map. Locations in each book are marked out as stops in the lines. There is a drawing of a lion above the title of the map, and in the lower right corner there is a compass rose.
My LoTR subway maps have been quite popular, but they're not the only ones I've drawn! I really like my Narnia one, too.
With separate lines for the plot arcs of each of the books, it gives you a fun way to see Lewis's world.

I like my salad like my poker opponents - obscured from view by a massive fucking pile of my chips.
You did well to get out of there (relatively) quickly, too.
The deputy leader of Reform UK, Richard Tice, owns a property company - Quidnet REIT.
From 2020 to 2022 it paid Tice and his trust £600k in dividends. Quidnet should have paid £120k of tax on those dividends. It didn't.
A 🧵 with evidence from the company's own filings:
