When I was a teacher in South Korea I taught English to students that were looking to go into university for a range of subjects. It seemed odd that maths students would be graded on their English ability, but the educational system was highly competitive, and English had a lot of weight to it.

Hopefully somebody gets to wave this at the camera.

My toddler is 2, has a fair vocabulary and has never watched Dr Who. Why does he keep talking about Cybermen?

Tomorrow is "Shoutout the Person Who Gave You a Bluesky Invite Code" Day. It was a cool time for cool people to drag other cool people here.

It is unthinkable that West World had a series beyond the first.

If history has taught us anything, it's to repeat ourselves.

There has always been resistance to automated technologies that try to undermine the power of labour. That’s why my PhD is looking at how journalists resist AI technologies in the newsroom.

I'm consistently impressed that Wired and Ars Technica continue to do great tech reporting despite being owned by Conde Naste. The duo's reporting basically killed the tech industry's covert effort to neuter a popular Colorado law making it easier and cheaper to repair your own tech:

Colorado's Anti-Repair Bill Is Dead

@dieworkwear.bsky.social Any idea if a ‘poachers pocket’ is a vestigial feature, or the purpose has been lost? I have an old Woolrich jacket with one I can’t imagine would be suitable for game. The pocket goes all the way up to the hem of the shoulder, which provides more questions than answers.

Fantastic bit from the BBC obit of London Zoo’s Desmond Morris, who encouraged primates in art, and gave a paintbrushes to chimpanzee. Morris: ‘Picasso had one of these paintings, and was very excited about it, and when a journalist asked him what did he think about apes painting, Picasso bit him.’

The only thing you should ask Ai for is book recommendations.

@rhymerrigby.bsky.social got a DM from you on X that looks suspicious and your last two posts in that site are about Crypto - have you been hacked?

Obviously this is impossible because Alan Moore looks like he's genetically a wizard, it's simply impossible to imagine what he would look like as a schoolboy oh there he is.

I've worn really distinctive clothing for years but in my 60s I just felt I wanted to look normal. I gave a dozen boxes of clothes to the local charity shop and now I keep seeing people in my old clothes; I realised I have looked like a twat for years.

@sorenbowie.bsky.social you might be way past caring, but Cracked hasn’t shown up in my timeline for years and the first time it has done since I don’t know when it looks like it was written by AI.

Finally a solution! #trolleyproblem

I don’t know if it’s the same with the Danish original, but watching the English version of Department Q feels uncannily like listening to Department of Midnight.

This is one of the most incredibly deranged photography projects I've ever seen and will appeal enormously to anyone who has had to cover Leveson / press reform / vaguely remembers when British newspapers had power. www.jenniferforwardhayter.co.uk/leveson-proj...

Chocolate, but in the chocolate there’s lumps of caramel, and in the caramel there’s lumps of salt. What a pitch meeting.
