This is tremendously short-sighted - if you don't hire junior people, where are your experienced, senior people going to come from in 10 years' time?
Chilling piece on employment effects of AI on early careers. Includes this line, which will probably become the norm for many firms: "Managers at Shopify must now justify hiring a human by first explaining why AI can’t do the job."

oh honestly just make it an alias
if you don’t want it to be a conscious alias, make it so potential Bonds are recruited + named in childhood or something, because Skyfall is *right there* for that
and if you think that’s ethically icky well, yes but *gestures vaguely at the entire 007 franchise*

the ‘standardised questions’ on the equal opps forms can’t even accurately define class without misrepresenting half the population’s actual lived experience, so uhhhhhh
good luck with that one
good luck with that one
Could someone explain to me what is meant when a British person refers to "the middle class" ? Like, in the US, as I hear it, it basically just means a person who makes a certain amount of money, not too far below and not wildly above the median. Seems like a complex concept when UK writers use it?

Me, giggling like a goblin, strapping myself into the BBC Boss chair, commissioning non-celeb sitcom & sketch show after another. High concept narrative comedies by women! 100 shows with writers rooms! Tell whatever celeb blokes are doing a travel show they can make their own way back from Bordeaux!

I could have put a bet on and bought a house (or maybe a shed) 😭

so… are we ever gonna talk about the fact Totoro creates ASMR in this scene, or
a girl holding an umbrella stands next to a totoro holding an umbrella in the rain
Alt: A scene from the animated film ‘My Neighbour Totoro’. At a rural bus stop while it rains Satsuke, a young girl, carries her younger sister Mei on piggyback, while also holding an umbrella. Next to them Totoro, a giant panda-meets-rabbit-meets-smiley-teddy grey furry creature, also waits, also holding an umbrella. Totoro happily jumps up and lands, making extra rain fall and land on their umbrella.
