I’m sorry but I have no interest in reading a book that even YOU, the AUTHOR, couldn’t be bothered to read or write.

This is just so depressing to see. Readers deserve better than this.

England with a very Hypno-Disc display. Unbelievable potential but let themselves down when it mattered most.

"External critics formed a caricature they choose not to see beyond. Arteta is not a manager they care to try to understand." But he has got Arsenal, and Arsenal have got him. Free to read - the roots of Arteta's passion for his club. nytimes.com/athletic/7300612… via @NYTimes

Arteta first arrived at the Emirates during a relative downturn. Now he stands among the Arsenal managers who have conquered the league

The UK public celebrates a genuine national treasure on his centenary, which coincides with a landslide of council votes for a political party that rejects net zero, wants to defund the institutions that Attenborough's life has enriched, and doesn't care about nature. Go figure.

South Korea blocks AI generated books from library deposits

ALT South Korea blocks AI generated books from library deposits

A partial amendment to the Libraries Act, which excludes "one-click publications" produced in short periods using generative artificial intelligence (AI) from library legal deposit requirements, passed the National Assembly's plenary session on Wednesday. Under current law, even AI-produced publications are subject to the legal deposit system, under which the National Library of Korea and the National Assembly Library pay compensation and hold the materials in their collections. The increase in AI-generated publications aimed at collecting these compensation payments has been cited as a problem, leading to budget waste. The amendment allows the director of the National Library of Korea to refuse legal deposit of AI publications following deliberation by the Library Materials Review Committee. It also establishes a legal basis for the government to recover legal deposit compensation obtained through fraudulent means.

I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated.

Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.) But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp. Despite how difficult this job can be, I am proud to be a foreign correspondent at The Washington Post.

The new planning bill means developers can build on nature areas and parks as long as they pay for new nature elsewhere. HOWEVER Defra sources have admitted this can be nowhere near the initial site - stripping communities of their green space theguardian.com/environment/…
Planning bill will let developers build on green spaces without replacing local nature

Campaigners warn move could worsen access to nature for millions already living more than a 10-minute walk from park or playing field

Ian Wright has been a huge advocate of the women’s game for years now, he doesn’t just talk about it as a box tick, he genuinely cares about the sport. If anything, his enthusiasm for the women’s game has brought more attention to it, just a mad bit of mental gymnastics this.
