@ryanqnorth Computer scientists: We’ve created a program that imitates familiar patterns Me [with pattern-seeking brain]: oh my god
One of my main beliefs was always that this system can be meaningfully improved, if the public were told how it works and that sparked enthusiasm for extensive reform. And that was beaten out of all of us I think, just the absolute shit kicked out of that idea until it was dead.
Imagine hating trans people *so much* you will end a 316 year old country to stop us having a tiny bit more dignity when we get married and buried.
Like, I am not at all disputing that this - Britain as it is today - is “the triumph of centrism”. It absolutely is, and every collapsing public service, everyone dying on a trolley in a corridor, every food bank, was brought to you by people like this and their cheerleaders.
@jburnmurdoch It was not just government that failed us, but everyone who failed to hold it to account, scrutinise the evidence, ask questions, and challenge the assumptions that lay behind a flawed model.
@jburnmurdoch The fundamental problem of British politics in 2022 is that we have ceased to be a country that can be honest about its problems. That is because the causes of those problems are uncomfortable for so many people.
You need to be careful with naming things. If you accidentally name something that doesn't already exist, you might create it.
There’s going to be a lot of this around in the next decade or two so I will just observe that we tried asking nicely, and in response we got a massive all-politics, all-media kicking for our trouble. So I’d guess a lot of people may be starting to figure, you know what, fuck it.
Every time the quarterly viral "tech's ethical problems stem from a lack of humanities education" thread rolls around, I wonder if the people RTing it actually know people in high-paying fields where a lot of people have humanities degrees, e.g., law, consulting, IBanking, etc.

A really sharp piece on the historiography of UK dance music by @sellbydave djmag.com/longreads/how-…
Remember when a very rich man, humiliated by a leading tabloid newspaper, set about putting it out of business, and in the process we discovered that much of the media were operating as a criminal syndicate, and then it all went away again? Fun times.

This isn't groundbreaking journalism or anything but it does starkly demonstrate the sheer novelty in Britain of a politician encountering a journalist who isn't, at most, one degree removed from their dinner party circle. He genuinely can't seem to believe it's happening lol

The thing is, it doesn’t matter whether the public realm is collapsing and on fire due to malice or because of reckless idiocy. The effect is the same either way, and there comes a point where the difference is basically meaningless, a point which IMO arrived no later than 2016.
Properly funding collapsing public services = Extreme ideological insanity, intolerable lunacy, deranged Giving lots of public money to businessmen to run services, because overt corruption is the only way you can fund your politics = wise, sensible moderate common sense
