In 2014, a woman accused Russell Brand of assault. A court then banned her from ever talking about it, even to the police. She had no lawyer; there was no proper trial.
It's hard to believe so here, for the first time, is a copy of the injunction: taxpolicy.org.uk/2026/11/07/…

The thing about Russel Brand (and a few similar men) is that his original 2000s “glam rock” act:
….Flamboyant, androgynous, gender fluid coded, but heterosexual hypomanic, joking not joking, cheeky and sexual but linguistically coded as ultra progressive feminist aligned left wing rebel….
Screams “sexual predator” social engineering for access to men but for some reason codes as high status safe horny with women. It has done since Byron and this latest scandal won’t change it. Peacocking with a cover story works:

Russell Brand is odd because he's always been an obvious talentless bullshitter, and yet at different points in his career he's been able to captivate both crank left-wingers *and* crank right-wingers.

Just so you guys know what its like to live in the UK a guy in my city recently cannibalised a teenager making sure to leave her alive the entire time, broke her jaw with his fingers, and gouged her eyes out. The girl is currently still alive and in the hospital
He got 57 months

We already have a nationalized SpaceX, dipshit. It's called NASA. They let the Space Shuttle blow up because the guy who warned about the danger hadn't filled out the form correctly. Twice. Exactly what you'd expect from a government operation.
SpaceX deaths: 0
NASA deaths: 17

The growth of batteries at 40% a year is not so much incredible as remarkably predictable.
Nevertheless it's great to see this prerequisite for replacing fossil fuels fall into place. And if there is one place AI can do a lot of good, it's in battery development.
This is simply incredible, CATL, the world’s largest battery maker, will reach 1 terrawatt this year!
That is nearly as much power as the entire grid in the US. Or double the Indian grid or eight times the grid in the UK.
CATL last year shipped 661 gigawatt of batteries. This year its expects to reach 1 terrawatt.
CATL produces 39% of the world’s electric car batteries and 30% of batteries for energy storage.
Hardly any company contributes more to the green transition than CATL. It was founded 25 years ago by Robin Zeng to create jobs for the people of his small hometown of Ningde in southern China. I visited the impressive headquarters a couple of years ago.
But the giant eyes even higher. At a show in Shanghai last week Robin Zeng said that: “We are still not good enough”.
We are for example not able to pack a big jet with batteries.
Robin Zeng believes the next battery revolution will be powered by artificial intelligence:
* AI accelerates material discovery - moving into sodium, solid state batteries and many new and exciting materials.
* AI converts scientific knowledge into higher performing battery designs.
* AI improves manufacturing - analyzes data and makes decisions in real time.

They've slashed the prices on all of David Walliams' books on Amazon for some reason so I've just spent five grand buying as many copies as I can. As long as no emerging news stories prevent the books from gaining value again I don't see how this investment can possibly fail

Just made an update from "my" Solar reality vs IEA graph for an upcoming book called "Power to the People". The difference is still going strong...

I don't think anyone understands how significant this is. We are now legitimately at the precipice of the New Frontier.
This is cool.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
NASA's SWOT maps seafloor features via gravity effects on sea surface height, not the surface itself. Technique used for decades; this higher-res (~8 km) version uses 1 year of data vs prior 30 years.

My wife asked me about the Henry Nowak case when we were on holiday in May after the verdict, I described the police's behaviour and she got quite upset with me because she presumed I was repeating a far right conspiracy theory and it couldn't possibly be right.
‘Manipulated in our darkest hours’: Henry Nowak’s family say police misled them.
Shocking revelations from our interview include:
- Police originally called Henry the aggressor
- They asked the family their political views
- The IOPC said there was *no misconduct* before Henry’s family saw the video of the way police treated their son
- The family were only played the video on the first day of the trial

AI is popular because it disrupts content distribution monopolies and rights holders grasp over the culture. It is unpopular among people who depend on those monopolies, because everyone wants to redistribute the means of production until it actually starts happening.
