On Christmas morning I finished reading 'The Night Land' by #WilliamHopeHodgson. Mind blowing. I've never read anything like it. Not sure what to make of the gender relations in the 2nd half, but overall it's remarkable.

How is this acceptable? On any day of the week you can find a row of Lime bikes (and other hire bikes and scooters) blocking this pedestrian crossing on London's New Oxford Street. And of course similar blockages can be found across London. Why don't we follow the lead of Paris and ban dockless hire bikes/scooters?

IMDb ratings for #TheApprentice. Despite the block of one-star ratings, as I write this there are literally NO reviews from anyone who left a one-star rating. I guess these are the Trump fanboys and fangirls who haven't actually watched the film.

It's a bit of a cheek when a failed newspaper uses its final daily edition to tell another industry how not to fail.

Current reading. None of us likes to think about it, but the internet and everything connected to it has a terrible environmental impact. Remember how hot your one laptop can get, and then think of the thousands of data centres around the world, all needing water to cool them and electricity to run.

The dangers of the #AI hype. Today's headline about delays to breast cancer treatment in the UK makes Geoff Hinton's 2016 comment - about not training radiographers - look even more idiotic.

Right-wingers on Twitter have been hammering #China over its carbon emissions, ignoring the fact that it has the world's highest population, over four times that of the #usa. Yet per capita, the carbon emissions of the USA are about twice that of China.
