Aberfan was a thing you were told about, growing up in Wales in the Seventies, but with no real context. The older you get, the more you learn, and the more you learn, the angrier you get. Working class lives treated as expendable. Same as Senghenydd. No Health & Safety for the poor. R.I.P. the 144.

So sad to hear that the iconic, trailblazing, Apollo 11 moon landing software engineering lead, Margaret Hamilton, is no longer with us.

What I want is a TV documentary channel entirely devoted to documentaries with no quick-cut montages of everything about to happen, which don't give a fuck about keeping my attention, presented by extremely knowledgeable people in a terrible mood who have no interest in trying to make me like them

Statistically, it's probably only a couple of weeks before I'm labelled a godfather of AI. Assuming you lot don't beat me to it. Either way, it's seemingly inevitable at this point in journalism. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Standup comedy + music history = catnip to me. So it comes as no surprise that @mitchbenn.bsky.social's newly re-recorded "37th Beatle" is a total joy. Knowledgeable, warm, and above all funny. Loved the reconstruction of "Tomorrow Never Knows". #comedy #beatles gofasterstripe.com/cgi-bin/w.cg...
