My take on today’s news. https://t.co/yo7fq2Rdmk. “Siri, play BBC Radio 4”. Oh wait no you can’t, ok I’ll go for LBC I guess. All this talk of “one platform to rule them all” is bullshit. Get your content to consumers, don’t try and force them to you!

My take on today’s news. https://t.co/4enO6VaBjb. Working from home makes location of main office meaningless for many. Why not have many smaller mixed department offices in locations where needed to perform specific functions?

The government is aiming to cut roles in London by 12,000 and close 11 offices in the capital.

Like most people we pay a fixed direct debit each month to our energy company which means in the winter we rack up a big debt which finally pays back in the early autumn. After fitting solar last November, we have, in March, already broken even (almost)!

Visited the @ElecHighway forecourt at Gatwick Airport today. Finally a place where electric car charging in feels special and not a car park. Well done! For balance the expensive car lift is a bit extravagant.

Humans learn by consuming content (text/images…) most, while public, is copyrighted. Will we ban machines from doing the same? Is machine learning dead? Or rather, will the west shoot itself in the foot when it comes to exploiting AI? Misplaced panic? @CogX_Festival Day 1 Done!

I mean @GreenpeaceUK could have put solar panels on the roof while they were up there. Looks like loads of good space for them.
