George Butterworth's 'Six Songs from A Shropshire Lad' is one of my favourite cycles for the baritone repertoire. Here's a recording of 'The Lads in their Hundreds', made with @PhilipRobinso18. Thanks to the splendid @FS_RecordsUK for sound and video. youtu.be/TbYpGaqE_Lk

@edudissenter This is at best a highly idealised vision of what GCSEs do and how they are assessed. For one thing they aren't standardised, for another they aren't exit exams, and at best they tell us how well a student mastered the specific techniques of each specification.

Imagine standardized exit exams for each high school subject. This is what England does. Everyone knows whether or not the student learned. Contrast with our high school diplomas.

Something about LLM hype culture renders a man immune to the experience of embarrassment. If I couldn’t tell the difference between PhD-level scholarship and grammatical gibberish I simply would not announce that to a global audience.
Kevin Cannon@kmcannon

There are PhDs being handed out each day to people living in the past: the students, their advisors, their universities. Dissertations that took 5 years of work, and which 4.6 Opus could re-produce then improve on in an afternoon.

And you can pry my em dash from my cold, dead hands, bitch. I will never stop using it. You're all telling on yourselves when you say you've never encountered it prior to AI. It's all over the place.

Reform UK’s @RobertJenrick is campaigning against the poor work of Nottinghamshire Council. Has anyone told him Nottinghamshire Council is Reform UK-run?

The reason our identity as a Christian country is being eroded is far more a product of atheists like Charlotte than anything else. The Christian faith is not just a culture war costume for you to wear. If you want us to be a Christian country, turn to Christ and go to church
Charlotte Gill@CharlotteCGill

I don’t want Ramadan lights in Piccadilly Circus We are a Christian country I’m an atheist but Christianity is the UK’s tradition We must reject the Islamification of the UK We are letting it happen

@DavidW4691 @RoryMaw @RupertMyers Precisely. One side, though, chose to believe a tale of "sunlit uplands" without ever questioning if or how we could ever get there.

I don't think you get to back the disaster that was Brexit, then flee to Monaco as a tax exile, and still claim any say in how Britain is run, Jim Ratcliffe.

@gingerburn @DavidW4691 @RupertMyers And how many things that we were assured “will never happen” is the EU busy implementing? Government institutions never stand still. Whose vision of the EU did you vote for?

@RoryMaw @RupertMyers I have no fervour for anything. I'm a realist. It's the Remain crowd who believe empty promises and idle fantasies.

@gingerburn @RupertMyers 🤣🤣🤣 The last 10 years on Twitter/X led me to formulate Maw’s First Law: the extent of someone’s fervour for EU institutions is inversely proportional to their understanding of them. The #FBPE crowd are utterly clueless.

@RoryMaw @RupertMyers Remain voters knew exactly how things worked, with all the pros and cons. Leave voters were just hoping for the best with no idea at all of how we were going to get there.

@RoryMaw @RupertMyers 17.4 million people voting for something where they have no idea how it will be implemented is just plain foolish
