Sam Altman admits that saying "Please" and "Thank You" to ChatGPT is wasting millions of dollars in computing power.

I see Ange is now wearing Paul Smith. I wonder if this subtle PR move came to him unilaterally or whether he got the idea from Coops. Always thought @Sunspel would’ve been better as they still manufacture in Nottm. #nffc

@ImJamieMartin But they always have plans A, B, C and D that are evolving and recycling until deadline day. If the club had their way, the fans would just hear about the signing that we ultimately get, without the rollercoaster along the way.

@ImJamieMartin This is one of the reasons why clubs don’t do their business publicly. Fans get nervous, disappointed, elated then disappointed again and ultimately end up questioning what the club is playing at when we get fed rumours from agents & news outlets

@ImJamieMartin Lovely pictures Jamie. If you get time for a spot of lunch, the adjacent Cave of Acropolis on Thrasillou is great for seafood.

@IanDunt Your tweets recently have been so on point and prescient. Your context and insights in episode will be equally important.

Why am I seeing so many clickbait videos of public violence and anti immigration vitriol on my Twitter feed? Surely the algorithms know this isn’t my bag.

[Active Astronomy @ActiveAstro]

@ImJamieMartin Very well deserved Jamie.

Good morning lovely people 😍 it’s the 3rd, which means there’s a beautiful crescent Moon in the sky and we have one more day until the #GeneralElection2024 in the UK!

I will not tell you how to vote but I will encourage you to GO VOTE or spoil your ballot!

Have your say! ❤️

@numerisphere You like Lycra-fanciers? I don’t even know you!

@JohnChinner Looks like Willy Nelson tried the John Hurt longevity trick from Contact!

@DrJeniMillard As cools as Mars/comet/Gas giant missions are, there’s nothing more exhilarating than the quick payoff that moon missions give us. Landing & sample return in the same month is perfect for the Twitter Generation!

@numerisphere I feel like I don’t even know you anymore!

The irony being that it would give a US president far more power and authority than the constitutional monarch, George III, that Americans insist was a dictator.

@numerisphere @SimonLester24 I hope you have a nice and comfortable car? 😉

@PeterStefanovi2 @AdamBienkov Is that the Brexit that farmers overwhelmingly voted for? The mess that we warned about and were derided for?

@NFFC Congratulations @elliemolloson. Always a ray of positivity on podcasts and now great to see your equality efforts being adopted by the club

@SpaceDrAmber @DrJeniMillard Usually from late March/early April. But worth heading to Congress Avenue Bridge just before sunset to see if they’re doing their thing early with the milder winters
