Revealed: Big tech’s new datacentres will take water from the world’s driest areas Amazon, Google and Microsoft are building datacentres in water-scarce parts of five continents

Glad to have attended a screening of #2073 last night. This film by @asifkapadia.bsky.social is essential viewing if you have any interest in preserving democracy. What's happening in the US is easily coming for Europe, unless we wake up and act now. #leastworstoption

I don't believe any parent finds it easier to have their child at home while they WFH. A primary reason absences are so high is because schools aren't able to deal with rising neurodivergence & mental health issues. They're forced to prioritise outdated Ofsted targets instead

Yep. I remember reading Affluenza by Oliver James and being struck by how wealth often breeds loneliness, anxiety and more. Paranoia will totally be in the mix

Agree. I think it's potent to remember what's behind all of this: greed, status, feelings of personal inadequacy and the rampant desire for control

If you have any interest in #AI and/or the future of democracy, you need to read this latest article by @carolecadwalla.bsky.social. I spent 20 years working in tech and survived several of its hype-cycles. This one is on steroids and, if allowed to continue, has dark consequences for us all.

🚨 🚨 Geek Squad alert!!! 🚨 🚨

If you enjoy finding out more about how things work, I highly recommend 𝙄, 𝙃𝙪𝙢𝙖𝙣 by Dr Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic. It puts a very different angle on all the #AI spin and for any business recognising the urgent need for innovation, it's an essential read. #futureofwork

I ❤️this, not least after just reading that Musk is again interfering in British politics, using X to call for the release from prison Tommy Robinson - the UK's most far-right social agitator. Presumably these people believe wealth renders them impunible?
