On almost everything – fraud, polarisation, radicalisation, misinformation – evidence suggests that over 60s are in much more urgent need of online protection and education than teenagers.

But that issue gets zero political attention, and is a total non-starter. Nothing good will come of it.
This was a minor story on London news this morning - but suspect is a real cautionary (and alarming) tale of an older man getting radicalised online.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.
Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI'
The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.

I just don't know what it's going to take for the government to take any action in regard to this.

It isn't a case of the dam bursting, it's been springing leaks for years and everyone is already soaked.
Two men were given 90% of Teesworks on the promise they would take on responsibility of remediating the site.

I've discovered they were charging BP for remediation on a project the oil giant eventually pulled out of.

Teesworks overspent and then asked them for more cash.

Good news for Billingham!

St Cuthbert’s to stay open through a five-year partnership.

Proud to have supported the campaign. Thanks to all who signed. This is how we make improvements in our borough - working with communities and backing local effort.

I've enjoyed my sabbatical and I am now ready to return to TV and radio.

Form an orderly queue and I will consider each offer on its own merits. [email protected]

For the evening crowd, should anyone wish to take me up on this.
Early days yet, I know but Drum has only sold 25 copies which is a bit of a reality check. I clearly need to up my promotional game so if anyone wants to invite me onto their podcast or do an interview or anything comedy related, you know where I am. Don't be shy.
