Will we all always remember or know about the recursive loop?

Struggling with universal credit in Hartlepool - I just watched a lot of the BBC videos on Universal Credit, and it's very worrying, I worry even more when I think how AI is going to simultaneously make things better and worse at the same time - such an enormous waste of people's lives bbc.com #

From a design perspective, the first thing that springs to mind with Universal Credit is the problem of having "all of your eggs in one basket", I would have thought that spreading the system across several very separate government departments would be better, but then again I dunno in a future where AI is everywhere, could be the single point of failure approach might actually be better - if everyone could just trust everyone and stop locking people into things then maybe we wouldn't need a stupid system that everyone hates in the first place urbandictionary.com #

Brexit - A link to a Brexit page now appears right at the very bottom right hand corner of the European Commission homepage - Has links to all the negotiation documents if you click through 3 levels deep ec.europa.eu #

Brexit - In case you are interested, the "Backstop" refers to a protocol section of the withdrawal agreement (p300-474, approx 1/3 of the entire document) that includes a series of annex sections (annexes 1-10) - these are the rules, apparently meant to be temporary, to be applied concerning NI after Brexit ec.europa.eu #

Brexit - The conclusion document has a summary (p7) of what the backstop is - It covers a lot of things, notably the "Common Travel Area" still applies, freedom of movement for EU citizens, it's not 100% clear to me that UK citizens have the same privilege ec.europa.eu #

Brexit - I am not a lawyer but this is what the proposed deal looks like to me: (1) Freedom of movement for EU citizens in the UK (2) No freedom of movement for UK citizens in the EU (3) UK is segregated into separate UK-EU customs territory (4) UK pays the EU a lot of money (5) peace in northern Ireland en.wikipedia.org #

A reminder of how the world is right now - logged into my laptop a few minutes ago and all my Firewall configuration has been reset to rules from several years ago - wanted to make a public note of that here en.m.wikipedia.org #

Sometimes things fail, and it's especially terrible when your backups are corrupt too - in those situations there isn't much else you can do apart from rebuild from memory, the good news is that building something you already did usually takes much less time, but you have to do it as soon as possible while you still remember en.wikipedia.org #

Brexit - "Our UK friends need to say what they want" - List the current rule set, delete the rules you don't want (unsure - delete it), add rules you want, send to Brussels - It does not need to be complicated bbc.com #

If the EU still won't negotiate people need to be made aware that the EU is forcing the UK and Ireland to fight against each other - the EU doesn't appear to see that real people with families live in northern Ireland and have been suffering for many decades - Stop the annexation of northern Ireland just so you can add a tiny bit of land to your continent sized territory en.wikipedia.org #

I watched most of the President Bush funeral, it was a really nice service, funny how different people view things - it hadn't even occurred to me, as the New Yorker tries to point out, that saying nice things about Bush was a way to snub the current president - as far as I'm concerned it wasn't about the current president at all, the funeral was about the Bushes newyorker.com #

It's worth remembering that most of the politicians and journalists will keep their jobs whether it's a good deal or a bad deal - Read / Scan through the actual Brexit document for YOURSELF! ec.europa.eu #

The only major news organisation that has published the full text of the Brexit deal on their website is CNN! edition.cnn.com #

The actual Brexit document is really not published in a modern format - there should be an outline/index, and each section should be linkable via url - the w3c's HTML spec is a good example w3.org #

A table of contents of the Brexit deal document is on Github! Makes it a LOT easier to find any section you might be interested in or that might affects you github.com #

New data suggests African audiences see significantly more misinformation than Americans do niemanlab.org #

Have any journalists actually bothered to read the deal? I haven't read a single news article that explains point by point what's in and whats not in the deal, nothing but high level hand waving non-factual rubbish bbc.com #

Seems as though the journalists are just waiting to be spoon fed by the PM on her two week charm offensive, hundreds and hundreds of words, only note worthy fact is a tiny mention of fisheries theguardian.com #

A small nugget of info about the deal's policy on immigration in this piece irishtimes.com #

Some Brexit facts (sort of) in this piece even if they are all conjecture on what could happen next inews.co.uk #

Suggestion - Every single major newspaper should be hosting a copy of the Brexit agreement for people to download and read, even the outline headings of the document would be useful, instead there is nothing but drivel independent.co.uk #

List of newspapers in the United Kingdom en.wikipedia.org #

The Brexit deal document isn't even available for download on the European Commission website front page! ec.europa.eu #
