Absolutely absurd interview where low uptake of AI in the workplace was framed as “oh we need to make sure everyone can get the benefits of new technology!” rather than “most people aren’t interested in that crap”
RTÉ morning Ireland giving a big puff to AI-use in the workplace…

All 50,000 panels of the National AIDS Memorial Quilt has been fully digitized.
You can search Duane's name and see the panel he made. And someone else made a panel for him, too.

Surprisingly few years ago opening on Stephens Day sales wasn't a thing and I worked in the only shop on Henry Street (Gamestop) open that day, we closed after 2 hours because the place was JAMMED and unsafe and everyone was screaming for discounts on things we didn't sell.
People should have to do a stint in retail so they can learn to be friendly to retail workers, yes. But people should also do a stint in retail so they can easily recognise bullshit sales days for what they are

Paul Reynolds just described Coolock as being in “Dublin’s north inner city”. It’s interesting when you see someone’s verbal muscle memory in action

Well, my public sector friends, John Collison can say what he wants about red tape but the last two times I used his poxy money transfer service for large payments it didn’t work and took hours out of my life. Dickhead

Was listening to a podcast and an ad came on with David McWilliams for PwC and AI as if something had been lab grown for me to switch off

I don’t care if it’s framed in stupid gendered terms. I’m seeing discourse about microwaving fish in the workplace and I think we should all agree not to do this ever

When it stopped raining yesterday, I went outside to get a lap of sunlight and fresh air and saw an eejit baby seagull trying to eat a 2” off cut of wood and it wouldn’t give up. It was highly entertaining and probably an important life lesson. Probably to stop for a moment and just give up

We wish the very best for their future to President Michael D Higgins and Sabina Higgins as they leave the Áras for the last time. President Higgins opened the doors of Áras an Uachtaráin to us, to many of the brilliant Palestinian speakers, artists, lawyers and activists that came here to advocate

In Michael D Higgins we have been lucky to have a President for the last 14 years who not only had such a keen appreciation of history but in labour history, not least during the decade of centenaries. It’s easy to take it for granted now but I always thought how easily that might not have been so.

Is repeatedly alluding to one’s “personal integrity” a lack of self awareness or a blunt attempt at NLP?

Missed The Ivy latest. Turns out the tipping out system means managers are getting tips but not kitchen staff. So the people who do the roster get tip money but not the KP.

Restaurant documents shows tens of thousands of euro in tips for wait staff but kitchen workers see only a fraction of that

Was thinking the other day Dublin seemed to have nearly finished its new hotel spree but in the last two days I’ve seen planning for two more. Yes, they want to turn Pablo Picante into a hotel

My mum just said to me "You should be hung like a horse". When I challenged her over saying such a thing, it transpires she thought it was a punishment horses got. Turns out she's been incorrectly using the phrase since the 90s in various settings
