With $SPCX and $RKLB sending up so many new satellites, transforming the space sector; perhaps they might like to acquire an interest in @jodrellbank and the eMerlin network, with its new LMBR’s ability to monitor space junk in real time.
A lovely meet-up with old friends and friends to be at the latest @RealVision London meet-up. Many thanks as always to the amazing @Money_Penny organising and also the awesome @BittelJulien whose analytical work helps us all unravel and explain the rhythms of the business cycle.
Puccini’s La fanciulla del West @operahollandpk was stunning. The triumph of forgiveness in a morally ambiguous world over the emotions of the mob. It seems invidious to single out Amanda Echalaz’s Minnie, but what the hell. Love to the whole cast and crew.
A shout out to thank RealVision for the London Meetup this evening. Yes, @AndreasSteno, @BittelJulien and @RaoulGMI were there (who are, of course, all amazing), but THIS is a special thanks to @money_penny who made it all happen! Jx

This is so surreal.
We've replaced horses with robots.
Adam Savage from Mythbusters built a rickshaw pulled by Boston Dynamics robot, Spot (the one that can now speak using ChatGPT).
My heart is heavy with the loss of Dame Professor Rosemary Cramp. My first tutor at University. Someone who always made me smile. Like the Venerable Bede’s sparrow, she has now flown through the warmth of the great hall and out through the other door into whatever lies beyond.
It is with great sadness that we learnt of the death of Professor Dame Rosemary Cramp. Rosemary was hugely influential in archaeology and academia as the first female Professor at Durham, and was instrumental in the founding of the archaeology department. durham.ac.uk/news-events/lat…
This is an interesting project. Adding books into an AI chat-bot, so that you can talk to the book. konjer.xyz/ is the site, @_nwmo is the brains. One of the first books uploaded was Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations; Sapiens was another. @raylaurence1 @pompei79 hmm.. 😁
2/3 Instead of a few books (or the transcript of video lectures, as @sanjay_0508 is playing with), imagine the corpus of an academic publisher, or the open access medical research sponsored by the @wellcometrust, or all the climate research publications.
Apparently there is a gold exhibition here somewhere. If only there was a sign. #inc2022

#ENOValkyrie - Wotan has problems. Seeking therapy from Erda he ends up sleeping with her. He mansplains to his wife that his incestuous illegitimate twins are not a problem - and his illegitimate tomboy daughter, Brunhild (who he is very touchy-feely with) will solve all 😳yikes
Mel Giles kicks of #IARSS2020 talking about the discovery of undecayed bog bodies - ancient and modern.
#ROHring start of Act 2 the Valkyries came on, all of a certain shape, long hair, dress and slightly disheveled. Something in my brain triggered: ‘OMG, 9 Mary Beard Valkyries, how terrifying!’ I’m thinking there is a special place in Hell set up for me now (Sorry @wmarybeard x).
