Liddle never grew out of the toddler-ish inclination to piss his own pants for attention, and the right-wing press were happy to pay him to do so because he punched down on their behalf mid-stream. This is an excellent takedown of his attempts at writing and of the miserable excuse of a man himself

NEW | A corrective to the gushing tributes… LIDDLE TO BE CELEBRATED An honest obituary for Rod Liddle, dead at 66, dead inside for many years before that. brokenbottleboy.substack.com/p/liddle-to-...

Whenever some total prick dies (see Rod Liddle) suddenly there's a grace period where people who conflate manners with morals refuse to acknowledge the harm that person did through their shitty actions. We should be celebrating the fact they're no capable of that harmful behaviour

Not speaking ill of the dead is the greatest crock of shit, and you know why? Nobody has to invoke it whenever someone beloved died, you'll hear outpourings from fans about how authors touched their lives, people reminiscence about their favourite actors' best roles, a celebration of their lives...

Okay, the Big Walk embargo is up and I definitely didn't accidentally break it this morning. Big Walk is one of the best co-op puzzle games you will play and it's almost entirely impossible to explain why, but I do my damndest anyway in this review. www.restart.run/articles/big...

House House’s latest game looks like a simple multiplayer hangout space at first blush, but it belies one of the best co-op experiences in gaming hidden underneath.

Last night two teenagers tried for hours to beat a time I'd set on my dad's racing simulator, and watching them slink away defeated at the end of the night has given me confidence like I've never known before

There are genuinely talented journalists and devs working at The Telegraph, but at what point does it become immoral to contribute to the business of a paper that pushes anti-science content? This doesn't serve the public; it harms them

Twice in the last year I've got to the final interview stage round for a senior editorial position. Both times, after four+ stages, it's come down to me and one other candidate. Both times have lost out because they have more experience in the specific sector. Does anyone know how to overcome that?

I really love these British Library anthologies. You can feel how horror writing changed over the 20th Century, from invoking a fear of god to a fear of the unknown to the fear of ourselves and what we contain. This one in particular is dead good at it

Even if it's true that a majority of leaders regret laying people off in favour of AI, even if they're starting to rehire people, it's just a reminder of how disposable workers are at every level if bosses think it will save them money www.inc.com/bruce-crumle...

55 Percent of Leaders Regret AI Layoffs—and a Major Hiring Reversal Has Begun

A wave of corporate regret and flawed tech rollouts is forcing Ford, IBM, and others to quietly bring back the human talent they cut.
