Different countries have different insults, simple as. Calling someone a spook means radically different things on both ends of the Atlantic.

Use it every day. Yeah wireless earphones are great, but they're far from perfect; some pairs have delays and issues with audio quality, turning on bluetooth drains my phone battery quicker, and I have enough devices which I need to maintain and recharge all the time - I can't be doing with another one.

The only hassle you get with wired earphones is them tangling up and limiting how far you can move your head, but I'd take those over connection issues any day.

I get where you're coming from, but to say that its akin to a civil war when there's a unilateral mechanism for unification and there's been lasting peace for decades... Feels a little reductionist.

The real Mildly Infuriating is that someone directly copied one of Stephen Merchant's tweets word for word.

It was around ~8:20. I don't know if I'd say it's worth listening to, but it's refreshing to hear someone working with AI/ML talk realistically about what they're presenting to the world - as opposed to bigging it up for investors or deriding it as a plague onto the world. Cleggers was simply talking about how LLAMA (their new ML system) is practically glorified auto-fill, and discussed the merits around open-sourcing ML stuff in the industry.

Was listening to Radio 4 on the way in, Nick Clegg being asked about Meta's ML Language Model and... I can't believe I agreed with Clegg throughout 🤮
