the only good technology on my phone is this app that identifies birdsongs. four different birds?? singing right now? that’s what i’m talking about.
IRL @himal.bsky.social also did not disappoint. A sobering, but really insightful talk about personal experience. What a journey. Can't take a career break from a career break...
IRL @dasbarrett.bsky.social at my first #CampDigital did not disappoint... although I thought I'd see some IRL tea/flask activity.
Asking this on Bluesky out of laziness, but would any south London/south London adjacent folks who work in tech be interested in taking part in a "work in progress" night to try out new talks? (quick 🧵)

Not getting into the specifics of causes of English issues with accidental prisoner release, but this is very much the wrong way to think & talk about volume of errors between paper-based & digital systems Both have humans, both have potential of human-based errors www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
A solicitor, Andrew Milne has been bullying leaseholders across Sheffield into paying him extraordinary sums, with no legal basis. Why hasn't the SRA stopped him? Because he's conducted an extraordinary campaign against the SRA. 180 complaints. Two judicial reviews. More here: buff.ly/LmLVegM
SRA urged to take action as we reveal solicitor has ‘purposely frustrated’ investigation
Solicitor Andrew Jonathan Milne delayed an official investigation into his alleged professional misconduct by overwhelming the regulator with complaints and threatening them with two injunctions se…

This predatory behaviour is utterly shameful and props to the Sheffield Tribune for reporting it. I hope this has a happy ending...
An absolutely shocking story in two parts and outstanding journalism to boot. Part one www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/a-london-law...
This is very much on point about how I and I think perhaps many others quietly feel about Britain? Excellent.
"Most of us basically love our country, even if begrudgingly – not the version we’re told to, or even presented with, but the one we really see and live in every day. Silly Sausage Britain is the Britain most of us reside in, and love." @sofiejenkinson.bsky.social on "Mr Blobby patriotism"

Over recent weeks I have found myself thinking about the country we live in, what it feels like and what I like, and love, about it. I guess I found myself thinking about this because of the summer w...

At @compassionindying.bsky.social we decided to FOI NHS Trusts to see their advance decision / MCA policies. Here's our thinking about why that might help us diagnose some problems and help the people we support when they have trouble at hospitals.

For those of us who have always believed in assisted dying, it's quite an extraordinary thing to see happen. The kind of daring, delicate, sensitive decision which British politics almost always ducks - suddenly grasped.

Such cool work going on here at the BFI and it's so fun to see it at an org which I use as a punter!
Kicking off some blog posts from me and my teams at the BFI to share our progress and plans in the open. Here's the first post, setting up what's to follow: www.bfi.org.uk/news/pivotal...
