Explaining to my wife how there's this one guy. And he alone is responsible for most of the world's distribution of PHP. And if anything happens to this guy, that's just it. Everyone is screwed.

Resilient old ladies: There were 760 people aged 105 years and over in the UK in 2025, an increase of nearly a third since mid-2024 (from 570) as the large generation born immediately after World War One (1919-1920) reach this age. Women made up 88.8% of this age group in 2025.

Was redoing my portfolio and resurfaced this interview i did with an AI 'artist' chatbot in 2022... (spoiler: was unusable). Life comes at u fast theblock.co/news/web3/2022-0…

The ‘world’s most advanced’ digital human wants you to buy her NFT art

The project may ultimately offer a glimpse into a future in which virtual people — virtual artists, even — do real business in virtual space.

The BBC has a fascinating, broken relationship with commercial media - constantly taking its cues from an industry where most of the business models are in a long-term death spiral, and replicating their shoddy content, despite facing none of those constraints itself.
