@vercel ShipLDN 26 was a blast!

Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.

George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.

Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.

And we all know why.

During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.

They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.

And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.

This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.

This needs to stop.

@theo All those E-GPUs (Elon GPUs) and this is how they do us 🙄

@RachelReevesMP Somebody at parliament needs to go to ToysRUs and get her a bigger abacus.

@theo @FrameworkPuter A k400 not made from paper!?

@rauchg Hats off to the way you’ve dealt with this incident. Sucks it happened but I don’t think you could be handling it better. Kudos.

[Lewis Olley @Lewis_Olley]

@Mrwhosetheboss Depends on the use case. For software dev, Claude is buggy and borders on insulting to anyone serious.

[Lewis Olley @Lewis_Olley]

Hands up if you’ve spent a good portion of your day rolling environment variables 🙋🏻

@claudeai @trq212 can we hook up an existing repo to Design, in order to refine an existing UI? Or is it Design -> Claude code one way atm?

I don't normally publish conversations with Downing Street but this was my initial exchange with Downing Street's then director of communications over Mandelson failing vetting on 11 September last year.

[David Maddox @DavidPBMaddox]

Just pointing out that I broke the story 7 months ago that Mandelson failed vetting from the security services and put it to Downing Street...so the idea that Downing Street only found out on Tuesday is complete nonsense.

@NetworkChuck 5.4 I found too robotic. M2.7 is feeling great!

@10DowningStreet @Keir_Starmer Best April Fools ever. Fair play.

@KathrynPorter26 @carla_denyer @grok can you explain it to our dumb politicians ELI5 style for the avoidance of any doubt.

@Shpigford Extra high, I find, gets carried away with itself. Having better results with high. Benchmarks show difference is negligible too.

@BasilTheGreat @grok has this been implemented by any messaging services yet?
