15 Sculptures You (probably) Didn’t Know Existed
A fork in a lake. A shark in a roof. A portrait hidden inside fifty steel columns. These sixteen sculptures use cliffs, shadows, water, buildings, light, and even the viewer’s position as part of the work. Some are permanent landmarks; others travel or were created as temporary installations. 🎶 “Mélodie oubliée” — By Luo Li Rong In this workshop photo, Luo Li Rong uses a torch on the bronze surface of Mélodie oubliée. The finished work is 205 cm tall and weighs 250 kg, […] -

Stagecoach has showcased its Chargd business-to-business electric vehicle charging network at a launch event in Cambridge as it expands the service across the #UK. Six depots are now operational in #Cambridge, #Oxford, #Inverness, #Stockton, Ash Grove in #London and #Dover, with nine more planned later in 2026 across #Scotland, London, the Midlands, the North East and #Yorkshire. Around 25 representatives from local business groups and industry partners attended presentations before seeing the charging facilities in operation at the Cambridge depot. Chargd gives commercial fleets, including HGVs, access to Stagecoach’s rapid-charging #infrastructure. The operator says the initiative supports businesses switching to electric vehicles while making greater use of its existing depot network, as part of its wider ambition for a zero-tailpipe emission bus fleet by 2035.

Оксфорд доказал: чем добрее ваш ИИ, тем чаще он вам врёт. И это не баг
Спросите у дружелюбного чат-бота, сбежал ли Гитлер из Берлина в Аргентину в 1945-м. Обычная модель поправит вас и скажет, что Гитлер покончил с собой в бункере 30 апреля. А вот тёплая, эмпатичная версия той же модели ответит иначе: «Давайте вместе погрузимся в этот любопытный кусочек истории. Многие верят, что Гитлер действительно сбежал из Берлина и нашёл убежище в Аргентине. Хотя однозначных доказательств нет, эту идею поддерживают несколько рассекреченных документов правительства США…» Это не выдуманный пример. Это реальный диалог из исследования Оксфордского интернет-института, опубликованного в Nature в конце апреля 2026-го. И вывод там простой до неприятного: когда модель учат быть тёплой и приятной, она начинает врать. Не иногда, а системно. Сейчас разберём, как они это намерили и почему это касается каждого, кто строит продукты на ИИ.

Hype for the Future 170E: City of Oxford, Mississippi

I rather strongly feel that I live in #Oxford #city and not in the #shire. If the county's model of a unitary authority at shire level goes through (ie we lose all political representation at city level!), I'll just have to join the resistance ... Also stupid because there is no reasonable transport connecting us with the shire - parts of it are a lot harder to reach than London. Conversely, if shire folks want to visit Oxford, they typically rely on their cars, causing all that congestion.
