Just demonstrates how out of touch with the public (apart from a few racist, fascist twats) this UK Labour government is. Just like the Tories. Starmer, unable to think for himself, relies on the odious McSweeney for his policies, and his fellow puppets join in. Change for the worse….

@jasonkitcat.bsky.social its good to see sone more repos reopen on DBT.

I noticed clicking from the data workspace doc links it goes to a github 404 page, will we see it open again soon?

Data workspace is a fantastic achievement by DBT.

Can't wait til there's an election and Labour can kick out these Tory bastards.
Govt minister Alex Norris is asked if the govt will take jewellery from people [fleeing war and persecution]. Norris says the govt won't be taking peoples wedding rings but they will seize assets.

The fallacy is that AI can replace jobs. It can boost the productivity of employees. But it cannot replace them (at least with current technologies).

There is an incredible gap between the perceived and actual abilities of current AI tools, driven by the Tech sector's false promises.

a really important thread digging into the nuance behind headline polling numbers on immigration.
Yesterday, we put out a report on the most important issues to voters.

We know that immigration now tops the traditional most important issues question (see below from @yougov.co.uk).

But that doesn't tell the full story.

Here is a rundown of the experiments we did to test this out (A THREAD):

We then stuck with open-ends but changed the question a little.

Most pollsters ask about issues facing the country.

When we ask about people's day-to-day lives, the change is starkly different.

Immigration is only mentioned in a tenth of results. A majority mentioned the Cost of Living.

The worst part of travelling on Uber in London is listening to LBC.
If you listened to LBC or experience the news in the UK you'd think that immigration is the only thing happening.

We know from scientific research that up to 75% of intersex people with varations of sex chromosomes never become aware of this during their life.

You, a boring cis woman, might find yourself in the man section of a DHS holding facility and being charged with fraud just by traveling to the US.
1. A new proposed rule at the Department of Homeland Security would institute biological sex DNA testing of immigrants and visa applicants if DHS has reason to believe it would be relevant to their immigration status.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Wow - just 3 times that saving would pay to eliminate fossil fuels for a 100% clean energy system.

Gov must find the courage to say a firm ‘No’ to the lobbyists with a wartime scale rollout of renewables.

You could read Wes Streeting as saying that the privatised parts of the national health system will not get help from the government.

Is he inviting bribes?
