Incredibly honoured to feature on this year's Pride Power List. Honestly taken aback by being included amongst such illustrious and impactful company -- thank you! #PPL2024

You voted to fuck up everyone who is different than you. You're laughing and clapping because you think you're getting your wish. You don't know it, but you also voted to fuck up yourself and everyone like you. Nobody wins under this regime. Nobody wins. Everybody suffers. 14/x

If you catch Covid this summer, you will be more vulnerable to other infections this winter. That's how it works.

“You don’t need a respirator for pollen, take antihistamines” “No point masking for smoke unless you’re wearing it 24/7” “They don’t work for Covid unless fit tested” We’ve failed at harm reduction. Even if something isn’t 100%, if you reduce risk & harm, that’s worth it!

Men are still responding with shock and disbelief when I say I was first sexually harassed by a grown man when I was 12. Don’t take my word for it: ask any woman in your life how old they were the first time they got unwanted sexual attention from a grown man. Report back.

The CMMC 2.0 Final Rule Is Here — and the Clock Is Ticking It’s official: CMMC 2.0 (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) has arrived. Starting November 10, 2025, defense contractors must comply to remain eligible for new and existing DoD contracts — with full

This is ableism at its most ugly. This is a person who’s embraced eugenics whole heartedly and yet somehow manages to convince themselves they’re noble and “strong”. He firmly believes he’s better than someone like me, despite having lost his moral compass ages ago

Once again, if your LLM system combines access to private data, exposure to malicious instructions and the ability to exfiltrate information (through tool use or through rendering links and images) you have a nasty security hole

PPS. Here's another stat for you. How many people have waited 12 hours from the moment they are *classified as needing admission to hospital* to *when they are admitted*:

Every creative genius — from Da Vinci to Einstein — had one daily habit in common. And almost no one does it today. Here’s why it matters more than ever 👇

TL;DR: Creative genius isn’t about forcing brilliance. It’s about making space for it to find you. Schedule some unstructured thought time. Your brain will thank you for it.

The biggest trick they successfully pulled was convincing people that because the initial infection was sometimes mild they wouldn't get serious long term health problems from it.

I always laugh when everyone is like, “Has anyone else noticed people have changed? Like, people aren’t behaving normally, they can’t remember anything, their personalities are changing, & they simply aren’t working right…what is that?” Oh my sweet summer children…

@thecakelin This would be why 100% COVID people exist. I can't believe it's 2025 and people are still choosing brain damage over simple COVID mitigations.

Nothing drains a high performer faster than realizing their reward for excellence is cleaning up someone else’s incompetence.

Like the 20th century, which delivered much of the world from the grips of colonial rule, the 21st promises to end imperial domination for good. Indeed, it must — there is no other way to pull the planet back from climate collapse or nuclear war. But that outcome depends on our

First up at #LeadDevBerlin we have @thecaringtechie talking us through how to lead in these current times of scarcity “Less staff, more work, everything will be great” gets a good chuckle from the audience

I worry about these students, going on to be HCWs. They are so smart, smarter than me. And yet they don’t see the risks. I get a lot more emails telling me they have Covid and can’t come to class. I do see a few more students wearing masks. 12
