At the 1985 Labour party meet, the motion to support LGBT rights as a party was passed due to a block vote from mining unions.

"what is this BABY doing in space!???"

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

Microsoft is ending its Claude Code licenses because it no longer wants to rent the intelligence inside its own products. Instead, it is pushing developers onto a homegrown coding model built for Copilot, a shift that signals where the company believes power in AI will actually accrue. In San Francisco this week, at its Build developer conference, Microsoft will show off that model — a coding system it build for one purpose: to sit at the center of GitHub Copilot. For two years Copilot was the default AI coding assistant, bundled into the platform most of the world’s developers already use. Then the market moved. In the nine months after Anthropic released Claude Code in May 2025, developers followed it, and in one major survey nearly half of respondents named it a favorite. The incumbent got overtaken. Here is the part worth slowing down on. Microsoft lost on model quality. Instead of putting the better model inside Copilot, Microsoft is building its own. That choice only makes sense if you believe the thing that decides this market is not the model. Microsoft is betting that distribution beats the best model, and the early enterprise data says the bet is reasonable.

Not gonna lie, this was one of the biggest works for me as of late if not ever. The very first draft was made right after the reveal of the "unannounced update". And animation was so good it got me so hyped for it even despite me being deeply drowning in depression.

I was really fond of the whole idea, tho it definitely intimidated me as hell, piece being rather huge for my usual way of work. I was heavily demotivated and mostly just exhausted by everything so I given up before even actually trying.

It took me a lot of courage and ofc even more strength to power through my own self-hate, in-family issues and ofc, weekly shellings of my city to even just try doing anything.

Last stretch was definitely the hardest of them all, with how all the bullshit possible decided to fall on my shoulders before I could finish. And yet, with some encouragement from others and just, yk, power of will I did finally manage to finish it. For which I am forever grateful.

And I managed to record a timelapse that thankfully didn't reveal all those hours upon hours of idling I went through to just do *anything*.

This one hurt, her work had such a profound effect on my life, thoughts, and politics.

May her memory be a blessing
