The UK has signed a deal to give Ukraine ~£300 BILLION over the next 100 years. I’m not joking… Meanwhile, around 10,000 people die every year from cold homes in the UK - as they can’t afford the heating bill. Why has Keir Starmer done this?

For all my football shirts collectors from England, Scotland & Ireland I took photo’s of my collection. In the 1990’s I worked as kit manager for the Dutch FA and if possible I swapped shirts with the opponents or other swaps. Let’s start:

There's a shocking fact about AI that nobody tells you: You can catch up to the public AI research frontier in just 2 weeks. Yes, really. I've built a $150M annual revenue startup over the last 8 years and If I were to start a company today, I’d drop everything and go all-in on AI. But like many busy software builders, I felt lost—overwhelmed by the noisy, crowded and fast-moving modern AI landscape. And I wasn’t alone. So I spent my entire holiday diving deep into AI research—reading 30+ papers, watching hours of lectures, analyzing trends, and catching up to the research frontier. ✨ Here’s what I learned: - You don’t need months (or years) to catch up. - You don’t need a PhD or decades of ML experience. - You need fewer than 20 papers and 2 weeks to understand the major breakthroughs shaping AI today. It's because the technology is extremely nascent and most techniques that came before are no longer relevant: - ChatGPT is barely 2 years old and Transformers are only 7 years old. - Most game-changing discoveries happened within the last 4 years, driven by a few breakthrough ideas, scaling laws, and efficient matrix multiplication. The biggest secret? Many groundbreaking AI papers with thousands of citations are surprisingly simple and applied, like adding "let's think step by step" to the prompt, or simply asking the LLM over and over again to improve its answer (Self-Refine). I realized there are tons of founders and builders in the same boat—wanting to dive deeper into AI but unsure where to start. I've created an essential AI Guide that helped me catch up, in just 2 weeks, to the frontier of public AI research to figure out where the next opportunities and gaps were: - Curated list of only the most important papers - Simple explanations of key concepts - Clear pathway to understanding the frontier of modern AI It’s perfect for: - Founders expanding into AI - Builders wanting to innovate at the frontier of AI - Investors looking to separate the signal from the noise 👇 Want the full guide? - Like and Share this post - Comment "AI Guide" - I'll send you the complete guide (ps, I’m also teaming up with @VishalVasishth, co-founder of @obviousvc with @ev (focused on large-scale societal impact companies like Twitter, Medium, Beyond Meat), to host a small meetup to discuss what's working and needs to be solved in the AI stack in SF. Message me if you're interested)

Today I met with Annunziata Rees-Mogg… It didn’t get off to the best start And as she started taking about Brexit benefits, it’s fair to say it got worse.

@iwasvvdrunk @pnefc He plays chicken with them every time, and they call bluff and get a fat contract when he panics, or they bugger off for nowt.

@pnefc Sorry, but this is bollocks. AB/BP/DJ/BD we should have been bringing in £25m+ for us to reinvest. We didn’t. And we haven’t learnt our lesson with all the OOC players this summer (granted they are worth nowhere near those 4). Stop letting assets run their contracts down!

@GHodgsonSport Hopefully it’s the final ramblings of a man determined to do four jobs that he isn’t qualified for. Frightening that this man has this much control. Can’t handle players at the end of contracts, can’t admit he’s wrong, can’t work with the meagre money we have.

Peter Ridsdale has defended the club’s ‘streamlined’ club structure, saying it gives PNE ‘a fighting chance in the ever complex and data-driven world of scouting new football talent.’ #pnefc

@PR4PNE @JPPJC17 That’s not true tho, most British football fans do have an issue with him not wearing a poppy. If he was just some typical aggro bastard player he’d have been forgotten about now

@JPPJC17 Most people have zero issues with him not wearing a poppy, it’s the way he acts and carries himself. He’s a professional bellend yet plays the victim card when he has it given back
