The current news cycle.

With juries acquitting peaceful climate protesters when they’re informed of the full scale & reality of the climate crisis, judges are now seeking to stop juries coming up with the ‘wrong’ answer in climate cases by preventing them even asking the question https://t.co/z8hqW3nJts

Today’s experiment.

Tory MP Edward Leigh claimed expenses of £2,332 for heating last year, and £2,474 the year before that

Retweet this if you think he should pay for his own utility bills.

@GWRHelp why is half of the 19:02 from Paddington missing? My reserved seat was in coach H. But this doesn't exist.

Anyone know where I can get some 2.8mm width flat aero spokes?

J bend in silver 278mm ideally.

Can’t find any in stock anywhere.
2.2mm won’t do unfortunately.

Tell that to Patrick Lefevre

@brianringley I am eagerly awaiting the video of spot riding the roomba.

🤔How does the library of the 21st century have to change in order to continue to be a useful institution close to citizens?

[James Solly @jjsolly]

@eng_mclare More and more contractors are doing their shop drawings in tekla or similar, so I reckon it must be coming soon where we can do more programmatic checking of models rather than drawings.

[James Solly @jjsolly]

@eng_mclare Well this whole thread has been excellent particularly for the reminder of @brianringley 2019 tweet where he refers to the big S as "p schu". If pushed would roll with something like.. "design generation or manipulation through the use of algorithms/logic +data"

@philipglowinski Are they at least nerdy hunky demi gods?

@paul_dotnet I love parametric christmas trees. In a season of kitsch they work well.

[James Solly @jjsolly]

@philipglowinski I love a good Christmas jumper. Sorry. My doormat is brown.

@philipglowinski As a Lewisham kid there is a special place in my heart for Waterloo East. Everyone else got Waterloo proper... We got our own special side-station!
