I want to offer some unsolicited advice to computer vision researchers jumping into robotics. Don't focus too much on VLMs, VLAs etc. That's fine, but the real action is at the sensorimotor level. Most of the open problems in robotics are in manipulation, which is about hand-object interaction, and contacts and forces are central. Proprioception and tactile sensing are as important as vision. Don't get seduced by cherry-picked demos. You can't do robotics without doing robotics.

BA warned last month it would raise prices, especially in business class, to offset higher fuel costs.

But the airline's boss said prices would rise further if fuel costs remained stubbornly high: https://t.co/tHA7cyKagO

An iconic image concludes an historic visit by Their Majesties to New York City.

On the third day of their State Visit to honour the American people in their 250th year, King Charles III and Queen Camilla paid tribute at the @911Memorial, toured an urban farm run by @HarlemGrown, explored our shared history and literary heritage at the The New York Public Library (@nypl), attended a business and trade event focusing on the depth and breadth of US-UK economic ties at Rockefeller Center, and celebrated the power of US-UK cultural partnerships with The King's Trust USA.

Today, Their Majesties continue their State Visit in Virginia.

🚨 5 key changes for tenants from 1st May 2026 🏠

The new Renters' Rights Act means:

1. Landlords can no longer evict tenants through no-fault evictions - they need a valid reason.

No more bidding wars - landlords can’t ask for more than the advertised rent price.

Landlords can only ask for a maximum of one month’s rent upfront.

Landlords can’t just say no to pets - they must consider requests reasonably.

No more fixed-term tenancy contracts. Rolling contracts will give more flexibility.
