Looking at this and it shows Hannan's complete ignorance of a coinage that ceased to be in general use a year before he was born in ... Peru... and 7 years before he came to the UK.
Most of those coins ceased
production in 1966/67 so SIXTY years ago.... although collectors versions were made 1970

In the end we were so abandoned by govt and the sector leadership that I had to go part time to recover. That's how much we cared and do care. (2/2).

Oh, I see the government are doing something about the driving test booking problem (the "not stopping trucks dumping rubbish" made me think of other things they haven't got a grip on)

So when thousands of women (and children) were being duplicated--including in non-consensual AI porn--it was no big deal. But it took "only a 15-sec clip" of these two famous white men to draw outrage and fear. Gotcha. Cool cool.
It took only a 15-second clip of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt duking it out on a crumbling rooftop — made by A.I. with a two-sentence prompt and the click of a button — to draw swift outrage, and sizable fear, from Hollywood.
"It’s nothing short of terrifying," one scriptwriter said.

Why an A.I. Video of Tom Cruise Battling Brad Pitt Spooked Hollywood
A 15-second clip created by an artificial intelligence tool owned by the Chinese technology company ByteDance appears more cinematic than anything so far.

I think that we as a society need to focus our energy on developing monitors and input mechanisms and software that better caters to cats. It's an accessibility issue. I think house cats would love to be gamers if they had an equal opportunity.

I launch into a real rant: call him a liar, list off all the errors in his work, his patents and other conflicts of interest, anyway, long story short he's her godfather.

Measles spreads easily. Ensuring you and your loved ones are up to date with your MMR or MMRV jabs is the best protection. Contact your GP to get vaccinated.

I've said it twice before and I'll say it again: I'd be the first to reembrace the Americans as friend and allies again.

there's a lot of talk about how the US has permanently destroyed its position in the world and while I do think it's done some real damage I also think we underestimate how readily a lot of former allies will be willing to rekindle a relationship if we replace this regime
AOC: "I think we have to recognize that we are in a new day and in a new time. But that does not mean that the majority of Americans are ready to walk away from a rules-based order, and that we're ready to walk away from our commitment to democracy."

Though it's interesting that in an article that elbow drops from the top rope onto AOC for stumbling in giving an on-the-spot live answer on a massive stage, the author and New York Times managed to fumble a basic fact about a very prominant public figure.

The lie machine is obviously a huge problem, but so is the idea that when a FIRE ALARM goes off in your office you start a thread about it on Slack (whether you think you're talking to humans or AI) rather than GETTING OUT.
So, it's ok if we use these chatbots to run safety critical messaging systems and stuff in our internal systems, right?

My nearest A&E has been moved further away to serve a major road and to provide huge swathes of parking. From most of the area the hospital serves, the bus fare costs more than 24 hours' parking and the buses don't run overnight. A 48 hour emergency admission cost my family about £100 in taxis.

Josh asked a fair question about what I thought about the reaction to local election postponement. And I feel less guarded and judicious than usual.
I’ll be blunt. It’s been another surrender of the respectable right to abject conspiracism and they should be ashamed. The anger is largely confected and hypocritical, people looking for something to be angry about. Not that I think two years’ postponement is ideal, even with all the context.

Cancelling the local elections for councils that were about to get reorganised was obviously a sensible idea, and the people attacking it did so in equally obvious bad faith and they would have just as enthusiastically attacked elections as a waste of money if they hadn't been cancelled...
