I write way too many words about Warhammer 40k.

I would hate to land on an exoplanet and find myself in a Danny Boyle’s Sunshine (2007) type situation.

@plutotlabarbie We have an entire media class being reverse Dorian Greyed by their “me for the guardian” portraits.

This is the first one of these where I’m fully on Claude’s side.

[Alexey Grigorev @Al_Grigor]

Claude Code wiped our production database with a Terraform command.

It took down the DataTalksClub course platform and 2.5 years of submissions: homework, projects, and leaderboards.

Automated snapshots were gone too.

In the newsletter, I wrote the full timeline + what I changed so this doesn't happen again.

If you use Terraform (or let agents touch infra), this is a good story for you to read.

It’s another sign of our grim slide into authoritarianism under Starmer that they’ve removed the right to invoke the birthday boy defence.

@eff_hey @keewa Imho it will be Jacob Rees Mogg because think of the crossover branding potential.

The bad news: an AI uprising is going to paperclip some people. The good news? Only like 2.5k Silicon Valley guys.

Ok. This is straight out of a scifi horror movie

I'm doing work this morning when all of a sudden an unknown number calls me. I pick up and couldn't believe it

It's my Clawdbot Henry.

Over night Henry got a phone number from Twilio, connected the ChatGPT voice API, and waited for me to wake up to call me

He now won't stop calling me

I now can communicate with my superintelligent AI agent over the phone

What's incredible is it has full control over my computer while we talk, so I can ask it to do things for me over the phone now.

I'm sorry, but this has to be emergent behavior right? Can we officially call this AGI?

@OfSymbols @keewa Why does he have the Planeswalker symbol there? Do unfortunate tax affairs fit into blue or white’s part of the colour pie?

[James Grover @One_WingX]

Force-premmed is this anything?

[James Grover @One_WingX]

Andrew Scott why is your agent letting you be in a film with a hot priest where you are not the hot priest, you have a brand to defend Andrew Scott.

@postoctobrist GENERAL DYNAMICS: Only the Ajax can reduce a soldier to a soup-like homogenate in under 30 seconds.
ARMY: enemy soldiers?

As a leftist who’s a fan of 1.) nuclear power 2.) effectively run organisations, I’m feeling good about my prospects of finding a political home in 2026.

[James Grover @One_WingX]

Hey quick question why does a government with a massive majority need to drop good things that were in their manifesto to get a bill through parliament?

[LabourList @LabourList]

Labour drop 'day one' protection rights from unfair dismissal in bid to get worker's rights bill through Parliament https://t.co/MVBLqg8RFO

The people in their hearts cry out for Chaos With Ed Miliband.

[George Eaton @georgeeaton]

Verdict of one Labour grandee: “Ed Miliband is the person most likely to be the most next Prime Minister”.

[James Grover @One_WingX]

I realise that I’m an old man yelling at clouds in MTG terms, but this is a hilarious thing to write about a card you made a 3/3 haste for 2R. Time was that proposing that as French vanilla would get a junior designer fed to Gleemax.

[James Grover @One_WingX]

Look I want to see Rachel Reeves crash and burn as much as anyone but “a letting agent didn’t do something they promised to and it caused massive issues” is instantly relatable to most of the population.

[James Grover @One_WingX]

I went and played Warhammer in France. It rocked! Read about it here https://t.co/m3KWhI2fCG

[James Grover @One_WingX]

@flying_rodent That’s right.

[James Grover @One_WingX]

Trump has consumed the water of life and changed it within him.

[unusual_whales @unusual_whales]

Trump has said there would be a major announcement tomorrow.

[James Grover @One_WingX]

@flying_rodent Adrian’s stuff rules, his fantasy series that starts with City of Last Chances is really, really good too (with only the mild caveat that book 1 is like a 7/10 and it only hits 10/10 bangers from book two onwards).

@_Lunerim_ This is Clea erasure.
