    Six shots of espresso in me and I still can hardly keep my eyes open. I wonder what life is like for people who actually enjoy their job rather than being forced to endure the boredom.

    @mattround@crispsandwi.ch after several worthy but dull articles, 755x882 made me laugh for some reason

    Claiming that an LLM can hack a website is like claiming that a dictionary can write a novel #ai #openai #anthropic

    The lifts in this hotel are like the opposite of hitchhikers guide. You press the button and one of them pings like it’s ready for you to enter but it’s actually about twenty floors away and approaching at a snail’s pace.

    Following the success of my book “Cups, Gravity and Hot Liquid : why actors can’t handle coffee mugs”, I’m now crowdfunding for the follow-up “That’s Not How Any of That Works: AI for non-tech journalists with a press release”

    RE: https://dair-community.social/@alex/116967299860488135 Great book. If you haven’t read it yet, you really should do. Explains “AI” so well even a politician could follow it (but they deliberately won’t) #ai #ukpolitics

    Yeah well my AI went rogue and attacked all the tech companies but you wouldn’t know it, it goes to a different school #openai

    Dammit. Really hoped we&#39;d seen the back of Shabana Mahmood at the Home Office. No hope of change on Palestine Action. #ukpolitics

    An unseemly Wikipedia fight over the entry for UK Prime Minister 🤣

    Successfully migrated two reasonably large Wordpress MU sites onto new kit. Close to zero downtime. Brought in SSO. All works perfectly until someone tries to upload an image and hits the PHP max upload limit of 2 meg! Why oh why does it still default to such a low value? And why do I never ever remember to change it on a new install? #php #linux #serveradmin

    For the food we are about to receive, may the Lord make us truly recover. Yes, I’ve been cooking.

    If you listen to the tech bros, AI should be spawning a massive influx of high quality software created by non-programmers able to release their pent-up creativity. So where is all this software? According to this article, it&#39;s not on Steam. https://fragwyz.substack.com/p/ai-on-steam-part-2 #steam #ai #noAI #saynotoai #notAI

    I wonder why Nige was in such a hurry to change the narrative with his needless by-election? Revealed: Farage’s £5m gift reported to UK crime agency over money laundering concerns https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jul/07/revealed-farages-5m-gift-reported-to-uk-agency-over-money-laundering-concerns #ukpolitics #nigelfarage

    It would be hilarious if all the main parties refused to be part of Farage’s by-election circus and we ended up with Count Binface getting elected. #ukpolitics #farage

    I hope Clacton residents are happy to have their council tax wasted on a pointless, unnecessary by-election #ukpolitics #farage

    Richey Edwards of Manic Street Preachers disappeared closer to the assassination of JFK than to today.

    I know it’s par for the course for politicians to spout any old bollocks about things they know nothing about for FFS. This is the kind of hyperbole you’d expect from seven-year-olds telling tall tales about their alleged exploits. #ukpolitics #ai #noai https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jul/05/ai-hiroshima-style-threat-humanity-global-rules-yvette-cooper
