I have rarely seen such unadulterated bollocks. I loved Twitter, it was so important for my job. Then a mad megalomaniac took it over and made it so no one would see my posts unless I paid him money - and even if I did that I would be submerged in nazi hate. But yeah this is our fault.

One of the biggest mistakes left-of-center pundits and influencers made was decamping to Bluesky. They made themselves irrelevant, shrunk their audiences, and dramatically lessened the positive impact they could have on our public debate at the precise time we needed it most.

A new report says Teddington could become one of ten official wild swimming spots. If you could turn any pond, lake or stretch of river in SW London into a swimming zone where would it be?

Riverside's "Pocket-Sized Engineer" Quentin interviewed about strange goings-on in the atmosphere in this month's The Re-Engineer Newsletter, dedicated to finding technical solutions to climate change!

Quentin Nield @quentinnield.bsky.social · Jul 2

I was interviewed recently about my experience as a radio engineer with various strange atmospheric phenomena, reflecting signals from far away on bands that generally don't, and whether climate change is making it worse! www.thereengineer.pro/p/hot-air-th...
