If a 3rd world country went through as many prime ministers as the UK they’d call us unstable.

“Do you work well under pressure?”

Is this a job that involves real urgencies like an ER or a fire department, or is the pressure manufactured through poor management, uneven workload distribution, and inflated importance at the upper management level?

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

If you were not invited back for a second round interview

Even though you know you crushed it

It’s probably because you’re a victim of the horn effect and didn’t even know it.

Here’s how to make sure it never happens again ❤️

This is a very misleading tweet, whoever tweeted this should have indicated the set of migrants being referred to.

This is why an average British person is ill-informed about so many things, because of pages like this.

1. A legal migrant has no recourse to public funds. S/he cannot access any form of aid, their children got no free hours in nursery, no benefit of any kind.

2. A legal migrant paid for IHS (health surcharge- to cover them if they have to use the NHS). (can be up to £5,200)

3. A legal migrant paid visa fees (can be up to £1,000)

Now, listen to this part:

3. If the legal migrant is a student, s/he pays between £13,000 and £20,000 as school fees CASH (you can multiply that by the thousands of students so you can know how much influx of money that is).

During their study year, they cannot work more than 20 hours per week, and the only thing they’re excluded from is council tax. It’s sensible because they barely work to pay their rent and other bills.

4. A legal migrant pays rent to their landlords, pay water bill, council tax, electric/gas bill, tax, etc. They’re not excluded from any single thing.

There’s literally nothing a legal migrant enjoys. They contribute same thing like every other citizen and don’t even get anything in return, no recourse to public funds.

Pages like that of the Home Office do not post such info, they don’t do any justice in informing people, that’s why when you engage an average Brit, they just think you’re the problem.

I mean, I’ve got dozens of British friends and when I tell them these things, they’re in shock. They’re not aware of so many things, they also just think EVERY MIGRANT IS THE PROBLEM.

Do I blame them? Not really, because they rely on the media, and the media feeds them with propaganda. For instance, tell me what it’ll take for this post to include “illegal migrants”.

They know what they’re doing. Keep the British populace uninformed.

[Benji Naesen @BenjiNaesen]

I'm sorry but it's hard to see people lie about how legal immigration to the United Kingdom works, and say nothing about it.

I am a legal immigrant to the UK. In 2023, I had to spent roughly £5,000 for a 2.5 years visa, NHS surcharge, biometric appointment and language tests.

I will have to spend £4,000 this year, to extend my visa by another 2.5 years, after which, I'll need to pay again for indefinite leave-to-remain.

On top of that, as a legal immigrant, I am understandably required to pay taxes, national insurance and can NOT claim benefits.

This on-going myth that legal immigrants are free-loading on UK taxpayers is complete bullshit. If anything, I'm subsidising them.

My legal immigrant ass is a net benefit to your country.

I just saw a TikTok that basically said women don't have maternity leave in America because companies like Nestle lobby against those laws cause their profits for baby formula would tank as mothers would be home to breastfeed their kids

Investing in stocks is all good, but have you ever invested in hotel stocks that come with real perks?

I’m talking free stays, room upgrades, complimentary weekends – the kind of benefits you don’t get from a typical portfolio.

I learnt about this nearly 10 years ago and I’ve held a bunch of hotel shares ever since. I’ve never sold, purely because the perks are worth it.

And here’s the best part, with some of them, you’re entitled to the benefits even if you only own one share.

Spain just introduced 5 paid leave days per month for women on their periods btw. I’m all for this & the rest of the world following. We as women have to stop shrinking ourselves down, expecting less & accepting less. Stop defending a broken systm.

A railway system across Africa could:

-Make living in Nairobi while working in Kampala possible.

-Let students from Kisumu study in Dodoma without relocating permanently.

-Enable doctors in Lusaka to work daily with Nairobi hospitals via fast rail links.

Enable doctors from South Africa to conveniently support patients in Kampala.
