@Dan fantastic stuff


@manton allowing people to easily repair devices, instead of shredding, would be the single, simplest act they could do to demonstrate their environmental commitment.


@crossingthethreshold The cinematography was stunning

@benhr.bsky.social As a Friend and a reader of your work, I feel like I’m at the centre of a Venn diagram made just for me. Love it.


@starstryder.space Such an exciting time for interstellar objects


@thewetmale.bsky.social It’s an incredible microblogging platform


@benhr.bsky.social Weirdly I think heaps of them do use the method of loci

@rantlaw.bsky.social This is what concerns me about invigilated assessments as the “solution” to generative A.I. Unfair assessments that reward a subset of students who excel in inauthentic conditions.


@benhr.bsky.social That too.


@benhr.bsky.social The conclusion is that drawing hands is difficult, no matter who you are


@swearyanthony.bsky.social Good to see you back on form too 💪🏽


@rantlaw.bsky.social I’m missing the nuance here. Was it an overreach, i.e. not highest court dealing with an issue, or is it an A.I. telltale?

Even the events listed in that post had multiple precursors 🤷


@benhr.bsky.social I loved that too


@benhr.bsky.social It seems like it’ll make use of you though, and all of us.


@roycerk2.bsky.social I’m now realising how many journos I know.


@roycerk2.bsky.social I was planning to fly to your Paris launch!


@roycerk2.bsky.social Nice work! I forgot to tell you how much I enjoyed it (in spite of my pledge to myself to never read a book written by a journalist [and apologies for using that slur])


@benhr.bsky.social Ctrl-F? Never heard of it.


@yimby.melbourne DIIV look old now.
