What defines us?

[Maggie Gee @maggiegeewriter]

Pls RT. Huge love for @rosarankingee, new novel https://t.co/1PH5odeyFC, how 2 women have a family described here in yesterday’s Guardian

[Hugh Grant @HackedOffHugh]

I think that if you’re going to write a piece in the Times urging the government to use and boost more AI, the fact that you are paid by a major AI company should be in the first sentence, or at least first paragraph.
I also think that the best scenario for AI is that it destroys millions of jobs with the prosperity, dignity and community that goes with them.
The worst scenario is the destruction of the human race - a fear openly expressed by an increasing number of senior and experienced AI engineers who are leaving the industry.
And somewhere in between a myriad of horrors such as yet more screen learning and screen addiction for our children.
But I do see that it will make rich men even richer. And that’s the most important thing of course.

“The only man I know who behaves sensibly is my tailor; he takes my measurements anew each time he sees me. The rest go on with their old measurements and expect me to fit them.” ​— George Bernard Shaw

[The Secret Accountant @TheSecretAcct]

The definition of wealth is a widely debated subject. For me it’s when you’d rather significantly increase your VO2 max than significantly increase your bank balance.

@hugorifkind Such a lovely piece Hugo. She sounds like an amazing woman! I’m so sorry for your loss 💔 Thank you for writing about assisted dying because you have helped me think about it differently.

[Hanife @hani_m]

@maggiegeewriter Belated birthday wishes to you Maggie. I hope you had a lovely day and warmest wishes for many happy returns! 🎂xxx

I do not understand why what is going on in Afghanistan is not bigger news. Women now banned from “hearing other women’s voices” https://t.co/TVWg85VeE1

[Heather Self @hselftax]

This (and the whole thread). Yes, Reeves was facing hard decisions and wanted to fund services. But no strategic vision was shown.

And fuel duty in particular was daft. Missed opportunity to set it back on path to regular inflation-based rises, and fund eg bus travel.

Those below retirement age can get similar help from @TaxAidUK .

[Rebecca Benneyworth MBE FCA @rbeccabeneworth]

Thinking about potential increase in employer NIC. My small business clients have soaked up over 20% rise in minimum wage in 2 years. Low pay commission recommendation is for another approx 9% bringing compound rise >30%. How do you think they feel?

[Gabrielle Jackson @gabriellecj]

Blood stocks have dropped to low levels in England—there is a critical need for O-type blood at London’s hospitals.

There are 12,000 appointments still to fill over the next 2 weeks – go to https://t.co/O8aROxEhPH to register and help @GiveBloodUK to fill them.

This moment from @KamalaHarris’ questioning of Brett Kavanaugh at his Senate hearing has never left me.

"Can you think of any laws that give the government the power to make decisions about the male body?"

[Tim Ferriss @tferriss]

"But no matter the medicinal virtues of being a true friend or sustaining a long close relationship with another, the ultimate touchstone of friendship is not improvement, neither of the other nor of the self; the ultimate touchstone is witness, the privilege of having been seen by someone and the equal privilege of being granted the sight of the essence of another, to have walked with them and to have believed in them, and sometimes just to have accompanied them for however brief a span, on a journey impossible to accomplish alone."

— David Whyte
