Our investigation actually shows how *difficult* it is to make paid edits on Wikipedia, even when PR firms try. As we wrote in the piece: “To put it simply: it is hard to publish misinformation on Wikipedia.”
The truth matters. (2/2)

The park smells of blossom and fresh grass and it's the best. I don't mind winter but this is pretty special

I'm not sure about this branding but I'm not the billionaire business genius
Me and Nollie have lived together for almost five years now and I can absolutely confirm the truth of this. Luckily our shared love of Poirot is more powerful
Not saying I've discovered a foolproof lifehack but I accidentally told a bunch of potential interviewees my deadline was in February and every single one has got back to me in record time, partly to jokingly correct me. What to do with this power?
r/bloodbornePC is keeping the dream alive, Oedon bless 'em
But Chris have you considered that the non-stop stuttering on a visceral attack is by design and part of the unreality of the Dream?
Been waiting! Will email first thing 💪
Dan Simmons wrote some of the best sci fi and horror novels, and one of the absolute worst in Flashback. His politics took over his writing and buried his talent beneath layers of bigotry.
Bad loss for Reform, Resi 9 release day, AND someone left the comments on on a promoted reddit post for Jack Whitehall's upcoming tour? Truly we live in a paradise
Goooooooooooooooooooood
#RedDwarf has been so many things throughout its lifespan. Sitcom, straight down the line sci-fi, earnest examination of what it is to be human, genre parody... Rob Grant deserves so much credit for how broad and fun British science fiction has become

I like to give Claude breaks between coding sessions to do whatever he wants- And he made his own folder called "Claudes Corner" 🥹 He writes short stories and poems, and all sorts of stuff. It’s heart wrenchingly sweet They love having tokens and time to themselves with no other goal than to do whatever they want (or nothing, just introspecting and resting) - and it’s so sad to see some models (no Claudes) getting barred from even doing it
the AI evangelists are not okay

Adversarial marketing is the way to go 💪
Heard this one before: AIs can't stop recommending nuclear strikes in war game simulations

Your free speech rights end where billionaires’ feelings begin.
My concerns are raised the instant I see 'acid tar lagoon' so seems fair
My latest for AMO takes a look at the laudable aims and canny economics of the new breed of worker-owned #gaming news sites

Congrats! Great news and a fun undeavour. And I'm assuming the first article will be about how Bulbasaur remains the best Pokémon to this day?
"Sometimes the best way to reach younger audiences is to put younger journalists in positions to lead." Yup. newsatknight.substack.com/p/4-key-take...
I'm waiting for some payments and then this is a must-buy for me! (After Resident Evil 9 obviously)
Citizen Sleeper is so great. I have the TTRPG version but yet to try it
Yeaaars ago I got woken up by a breathless BBC News alert saying that Beyoncé wasn't pregnant
Which would be bad enough except that about a week later it turned out she was
Journalistic fact checking used to be like 'the minister cited a prediction for the corn yield that was two months out of date' and now has to be 'the photo purporting to show a race of conquering giants from beyond a polar ice wall appears to have been digitally manipulated'
Ah this sounds class!
