@emhoneyreads Different shelves for different genres. And then mostly alphabetical by author. Except for history and historical fiction which are chronological.

@BBCNews question for the data journalists. Do you still actively use R and ggplot2 /bbplot for most static data Viz, or have you adopted other tools? It's been a while since the bbplot repo was updated on GitHub. @rob

Is... Is this meant to be an insult?..

Lib Dems are majorly funded by open-border-loving Quakers

They want you to think they’re a middle class centrist party for dads who like gardening but they are as radical as the Greens

@AvantiWestCoast #StormFloris I'm booked to travel home from Penrith to London on the 1703 today, which is (currently) still due to run. Can I catch an earlier train if it's running (advance ticket).

Early exit polls suggest the new pope did particularly well with male voters aged 45-79.

@undertheraedar This may be a stupid question, I can see the various shape files (for the 2019 version), via the blog, but did you wever make the aggregated constituency data itself available (as a csv or something)?

@Keir_Starmer It is possible to support development (housing, rail, green energy and industry) while opposing unnecessary, climate trashing investments like airport expansion.

It's important, when thinking about possible cuts to spending plans for the next few years, not to disregard the short-term funding announced last autumn. Increases of 1.3% or 1.1% per year would be from a much higher starting point than under Jeremy Hunt's pre-election plans.

@estwebber I had assumed the Lords' galleries had similar glass barriers to the Commons. Apparently not.

The Bundestag’s geographical seat distribution is extraordinary. If East Germany were still a separate country, a neo-Nazi government would be in charge of it tonight

@theiaincameron Should I abandon plans for winter skills this year?

[Jack Fleming (he/him) @jfefleming]

@joshcarlosjosh An excellent ranking, but you are missing the fan made "Hunt for Gollum" and "Born of Hope", both of which are worth your consideration.

Also, the fan edits of the hobbit trilogy make life better...

Every French urban area with a population >150,000 now has a tram or metro.

Thirty British cities are larger than 150,000 people and go WITHOUT reliable rapid transit, forcing their residents to rely on crowded buses or congested roads. It could be so much better....

The most remarkable graphs I've seen in a long time.

Holy shit. Without a doubt the most realistic AI images I've ever seen.

We are 99.7% of the way to completely indistinguishable-from-reality AI imagery.

(You can still see a few flaws when zooming in)

This is made with FLUX. Uncanny Valley.

I'm far from an expert, but I hope Tim Walz sharpens up his interview technique. Maybe Secretary Pete can give him som tips?

Here’s 8 major transportation infrastructure projects in the U.K. and their net effects on emissions.

Guess which two we’ve axed. Is it the two most polluting? Nope!
