Massive thank you to @math_rachel and @jeremyphoward for creating fast.ai I've learnt so much about Machine and Deep Learning in a short time. Really didn't expect to be able to understand this stuff.

The idea that Britain is a ‘powder keg’ because of its diversity is in itself stunningly racist. Millions of us live in diverse families bound by ties of love & respect that are as combustible as granite.

The longest sentence handed down to a violent racist rioter this week is shorter than the sentences imposed on entirely peaceful environmental protesters last month. Labour must repeal the Tory laws that treat peaceful protest more severely than violent disorder and assault.

If the going rate is 4 or 5 years for a zoom call to plan a peaceful road block, what would be appropriate for those who invade a grieving, traumatised community, 24 hours after the deaths of three little girls, to participate in a full blown race riot?

Dear @Channel4News The Y2K bug did not “turn out to be a phantom issue”. Hundreds of thousands of us worked our bloody socks off to make sure the world went on working. The fact that nothing went badly wrong took a decade of planning and effort. Sloppy bloody reporting

Can Labour bring back Surestart ASAP. Please. I don’t want to keep seeing hungry kids and vulnerable families with so little support, at work, and around the country.

Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.

Everyone knows Labour are going to win the election, but if you’re feeling like there’s no point in voting as the outcome is a foregone conclusion, I’d like to draw your attention to something really radical that is on offer tomorrow: 1/8

Christ, you are going to go ballistic when you see what Netanyahu is doing to Gaza.

The damage done to Stonehenge is outrageous. Just Stop Oil are pathetic. Those responsible must face the full force of the law.

I'm absolutely delighted by @TheGreenParty successes all across the country. Feeling jubilant that the Greens have won loads of new seats! Yet who do we keep seeing on the BBC? Reform. The BBC obsessively plugging them despite them winning literally one council seat.

Seriously. The absolutely arrogance it takes to look at China's decades long strategic planning, developing global supply chains, technology, manufacturing, etc. to harness and store the power of the Sun (a resource 10,000x more powerful than all other human energy sources…

I taught my kids about democracy tonight by having them vote on which movie to watch and pizza to order. I then picked the movie and pizza because I'm the one with the money.

Israel has killed over 11,500 Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank since October 7th, when 36 Israeli children were killed. It’s impossible to imagine that number. This is what it looks like. A line 5km long. (Location: Bournemouth Beach)

Trainspotting parodies usually bore the shit out of me, but I quite like this one.
