  1. Reading about the excess deaths so far in the UK makes me wonder if some people are pleased that the pension bill has been reduced.

    At my most cynical I thought a major reason older people and seriously disabled people were originally on the list not to be admitted to hospital during the first months of Covid was because it made sense on a spreadsheet to let them die to save money.
    So if they'd know about the ongoing cost to the economy of long Covid they would have made different decisions.

    One part of the exam to become a fast stream entrant was to decide from three options which was best. In my year it was the cost of cleaning up a contaminated island. A full clean was more than the budget, the lowest cost had the highest number of people who would die - so how much risk to people's lives was worth the expenditure.
    Hint - there was no way to get the extra money to reduce deaths to zero.
    Very much the way senior HMT staff are trained.

  6. I’m catching up on reading for work about AI, democracy and public-sector information governance.

    Beyond the hype, what fears, hopes and questions about AI’s future matter most?

    What should someone working with government information governance understand, question and take seriously?

    I’d love recommendations for books, essays, podcasts, talks or videos. Comments and shares welcome.

  10. This bill could change everything for American Creators and our Freedom of Expression, but it has gotten so little attention.

    H.R. 4678 The Restoring Artistic Protection Act, introduced by Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA), would create a strong legal presumption that creative works cannot be used as evidence in federal criminal or civil cases.

    It covers all creative expression, including:

    • Video Games
    • Comics & Animation
    • Movies & TV Shows
    • Books & Literature
    • Visual Art & Scripts

    Fictional storylines, characters, dialogue, artwork, and gameplay would be presumed inadmissible. Prosecutors could only overcome this with a pretrial hearing and clear and convincing evidence that it’s directly relevant, not just character assassination.

    No more treating art as confession.

    This would give game devs, comic artists, animators, and filmmakers real breathing room to create bold, raw, and unfiltered content without lawsuit chill.

    It currently has 21 Democrat cosponsors, but something this important needs bipartisan support and hearings in Judiciary. Similar protections have already passed in Georgia, Louisiana, and Missouri with Republican backing.

    After 15+ years, Americans are tired of watching their sanitized culture wither away while other countries continue to make great works for the world to enjoy, we want to have pride in the art that our country produces, and it is high time that American creators were able to build freely and without fear again.

    Spread this bill around, give your congress a call!

  20. There's two paths that lead to fascism: state capitalism and state socialism.
    In fascism the main word is not «supersocialism» or «supercapitalism», but «state» itself.
    Fascism - it's a logical conclusion for goverment who decided to control market through big buisness or state corporations.
