Pooped. So much on at the moment, nicer weather helping. Looking forward to Easter week and a break from work as its much needed.
Hard to avoid Trump’s America and its abdication from globalisation this week and was tempted not to post anything but loved this long read on Trump’s Divergence from the Interests of Capital.
And in these difficult times I liked this article on the Guardian flourishing. Although there’s no paywall I subscribe as you need to invest in journalism somehow.
Fiber Optic drones are Changing Combat Operations – I had no idea this was a thing. I was convinced it was an early April 1st but drones with km’s of fibre optics can operate without fear of being jammed.
You really have to be on guard with Cyber Security – even the experts get caught out. A really honest post and shows it can happened to anyone – saw it first hand at work this week with many caught out with the latest phishing test – busy people, hugely distracted and a simple but targeted mail and bang – lots of people caught.
Lot’s of conjecture around AI – it will eat jobs, vibe coding is the way, it won’t be that damaging but I found this post really interesting on what the next 2 years could hold.
Nintendo finally showed more detail on the Switch 2. I missed the launch event, thought it was a bit meh…but I’ve got a pre-order in. Mario kart World looks a ton of fun. The noise around games being expensive – I get it, but comparing hours you get from a game vs watching a movie once or twice…I still think the price is fine.
Tron Legacy was criminally underrated – loved that film – so looking forward to Tron: Ares whose trailer dropped this week.
