It still amazes me that Hurricane Helene hit Florida, Georgia and Carolina and those states still voted for a Climate Change Denier

The only poll that matters is on the day. Make sure you go out and vote, don't assume it's a foregone conclusion.

I think Labour will win a landslide this year, but 2029 (or earlier) will give voters enough time to be frustrated that despite all the talk about change, nothing will in fact change. That plus war on the horizon (literally maybe) and it seems that a right wing government of some description will be in power next. That may be a reform/tory merger of some sort, or it could even be labour lurching even further to the right. Either way, I fear we are headed into dystopia.

The house building companies already have vast amounts of land they own with planning permission in place. They restrict the amount of housing they build to artificially keep the prices high, if they build too many, the prices they could sell their houses for would drop, reducing profit. These are private companies and the government has little control over them. This is why every government for the last few generations has promised more houses and delivered nothing.

Yes, thats what will save the Tories, a new leader.....

100,000 people marched through London at the weekend at the Restore Nature Now March, and there was virtually no news coverage of it. Yet 2 people spray corn starch on a monument and it's front page news globally.

It's a dilemma.

Real developers just hit tab on whatever copilot tells them to

You misspelt Microsoft

So Ilya has signed a letter saying if he doesn't resign he'll quit?!?

Is this embrace or extend? I'm not looking forward to extinguish.

Looks like OpenAI split in two and Microsoft ended up holding both pieces. Impressive work really.

This piece by NASA climate scientist Peter Kalmus is eye opening
