He isn't "losing" this money. This is called "paying tax like a responsible citizen and not hiding your money offshore" and we need to start recognising and applauding it.

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

No one should ever work or buy anything from them again
French publishing house Harlequin decided to use AI translation instead of human translations.

All their freelance translators (some of whom had been working with Harlequin for +30y!!!) were told they would no longer receive work from Harlequin

Have a societal problem? Is it due to a range of complex factors and previous failures? Will it take significant investment and dedication to solve, more than you're willing or able to put into it?

Well don't worry, just announce that teachers will fix it! They've not got much else on.

Watched The Salt Path doc. Met a few 'Moths' in my time. A very particular type of shark. The cravat, the hair and the wise, beatific smile are dead giveaways.

Charlotte Proudman: No child should ever be bound to a man who raped her mother
The High Court ruling that a child must keep the name of the man who raped her mother reveals a deep problem in our family courts, says Charlotte Proudman.

Errr... Would this not include someone who has Nigerian citizenship through her parents, and who has admitted to hacking Harriet Harman's website, a crime which at the time carried a maximum sentence of five years?

As per fucking usual. Cops lie. Press lie. MPs lie. Families campaign in pain and anger. The truth comes out and no one, NO ONE gets punished no cops go to jail. Again and again and again it’s the same story but what is wrong with the justice system? Too many jury trials.

Hong Kong fire and Grenfell are just alike. Fire spreading through unsafe building materials installed due to penny-pinching, killing dozens. One difference: before the HK fire is even out three executives at contractors have been arrested, eight years after Grenfell no-one has been arrested.

For 20+ years I've got my info on Israel-Palestine from academic literature and leading independent civil society orgs. And I can tell you, its not the young pro-Palestine activists who've been radicalised into a dark place by virtue of inhabiting an information bubble. Its the political class.
Sharing the video of this because it’s such a ghoulish thing to say that I’m honestly in disbelief that I even heard her properly

The thing to understand is that there is a particular contingent within Labour who assess their own performance not based on the support they get from the right (which will always be, basically, none) but on how much they repulse the left. So they turn into Reform, without actually getting votes.

Sick to my stomach that the President being mixed up with a horrifying global network of pedophiles is considered a 'voter issue' and not something the whole world needs to know about and people need to be prosecuted for.

Only reason anyone would want people to ignore Epstein is if you're involved
The usual suspects are telling Dems that Epstein won’t win elections, get back to “affordability” and I think my head might explode. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...
Force A Referendum On The Epstein Coverup
It divides Republicans much more than "affordability" or any other economic issue.
