I think many knowledge workers who spend an hour with Cowork will get that "Claude Code" moment that has been roiling X for the past few weeks.

@TennisONEApp . @NickKyrgios Maybe before you comment you should actually read the judgement and understand the case. I was exonerated and proven 100% innocent ! Last time this happened your agent had the decency to apologise for your behaviour and no further action was taken.

Nick on Greg Rusedski saying that he shouldn’t receive AO WC “Pretty sure Greg got done for performance enhancing drugs once in his career, so I wouldn’t take too much advice from someone like that…you let me know when he sold out a stadium last time he played” 🎥: 🎾Australia

NEWS: We’re thrilled to announce that Southwark Tube Station (MJP, 1994-99) has finally been Grade II listed, nine years after C20 first submitted a listing application and a quarter of a century after opening to the public. The Jubilee Line Extension is one of the finest British architectural and engineering achievements of the past century, with Southwark Station a jewel in the crown. The joyful experience of travelling from street to platform is a carefully choreographed delight. From the drum shaped entrance that recalls Charles Holden’s classic 1930s Arnos Grove tube station, to the subterranean skylit hall with artist Alexander Beleschenko’s dramatic geometric blue glass wall, this is transport infrastructure elevated to the sublime.

@NigelBn @NickLovesSpain For practicing Catholics choosing the historical route, they do whole Camino in one go. It’s a sort of sacrifice to get closer to God. My friend wants to carry her own things, stay in public albergues, and do the qhole route. I want to stay in hotels and send my bag ahead.

@bettinablancoRD @NickLovesSpain You don't need to do all of any route all of once! The French way starting in Leon is mostly easy going and lovely. The Portuguese route is great too.

@NickLovesSpain I want to walk the Camino in 2026. If you are in good physical shape, I would go for one of the longer routes. I have joint issues so I’m thinking of doing the Portuguese Camino, shorter and not as hard. My friend wants to do the historical one, but it takes more than a month.

In the increasingly hostile and unusable world of ex-Twitter, I think this was intended as some kind of threat and abuse, but it actually turned out quite well (if not wholly accurate!)

Simply PATHETIC situation on Centre Court. Pavlyuchenkova just lost a game that... she won. At 4-4. 4th round of a Slam. Centre Court. "You just stole me the game". She is right.

@RobertKwolek Though those particular houses are 20th century infills, built over a railway tunnel - so no basements there! But a lovely street

While walking by, I heard a man on a bicycle say, with surprise, that some of them are 5 storeys! Indeed they are, though they hide their height well with a lower ground floor and mansard.

The Georgian terraces along Highbury Fields. This was just behind my university campus for many years and was my first lesson all those years ago into the elegance of Georgian architecture, but also the benefits of harmony, homogeneity, and variety in a pattern.

@becimay Green mind, as outdoors all day in the summer shade, and also perhaps because of the limited colours cats are thought to be able to perceive?
