I've made a @Spotify playlist. It's called 'Rosenthal's Relative Unknowns' and it only features songs with fewer than 100k streams. I hope you find some hidden treasures. This is it :

@davidallengreen@Nigella_Lawson@prospect_uk I came for the legal analysis, but I’ve stayed for the sexual frisson between you and Lawbs. It’s absolutely everything at this point. You’re both fabs btw. Intellectual heavyweights both x
@jasongorman I use the word “librarianship” on probably a weekly basis. An overlooked core skill is finding and assimilating information - standards, libraries, opinions - before coding. Librarians are effective because they know how to find good information.
I’m recently back on Twitter, and it’s still a swamp. From a Labour perspective, the noise made by the fringe is massive, and totally disproportionate to their real-world influence. Twitter is a parallel political context.
Something I've wanted to write for a while, and feel increasingly convinced by.
The Labour party should get off Twitter. Delete it. Stop its MPs from spending too much time on here, especially if it wants to get elected into government

EXCL: This is the NHS as you’ve never seen it.
19 patients crammed on trolleys in corridors unable to get into a full A&E.
92 year-old May has been stuck on hers for 3 days.
Outside, ambulances queue, delayed getting to other calls.
Patients have died waiting. #ITVTonight
@paul81738651 @AngelaRayner You can drive a truck thought that explanation, and written on the side of the truck are the words: “I went to a social event where I knew Alexander Lebedev would be, and I did not inform the Civil Service or Special Branch that I expected to speak with him.”
8⃣ By placing noise monitors in every house, BoomBoomBucks are democratising annoyance.
Want to play some banging techno at 3AM? No worries!
Your neighbours can set a price on being annoyed and automatically charge you for waking them up.
@ramtop@s4nchez I can accept an argument along the lines of “you aren’t fully agile if you aren’t pairing,” I think there’s truth in that. Is that approximately your position?
@ramtop@s4nchez What is “direct” interaction, bearing in mind a lot of us work remotely. Do I have to sit beside somebody to be agile; do I have to Zoom rather than Slack, Slack rather than using a web UI?
It looks a solution to the problem of how NFTs might appear useful, rather than a solution to any problems in the logistics domain. It seems to focus on the bit of logistics that is actually fantastically economical, and proposes a less efficient solution.
Then, externalities. I can plan for fire, theft, loss, access for fixed fulfilment. How do I know the stock in your garden is secure? How do I calculate the impact of loss on fulfilment? This requires unrealistic levels of planning, and a frankly impossible amount of oversight.
