Bitcoin has pretty much doubled in value in the last six months.
I'm just pointing this out, please do not feel the need to mansplain crypto to me... *braces*

I'm wading through a completely incomprehensible press release about quantum computing. I am going to ring the PR with a lot of questions but I have a feeling I won't get very far because this has clearly just been copied and pasted from somewhere.
I honestly get it - explaining…

I had an interesting chat with a friend who works in tech, who I won't name (but he can out himself if he wants to!) recently.
I praised a post he'd written - he's an excellent, practical communicator by trade but this particular post had a softer, warmer edge than usual, and I

Humane head of media responds to Marques Brownlee review of the AI pin: “honest, solid”
In a second tweet Sam says the software “is not where it needs to be”

Coming tomorrow: a story that made me cry on air. One of the most emotional interviews I’ve ever done in this job. I try not to let my own feelings become part of my stories and usually they don’t - ultimately it doesn’t matter what I think, the story should speak for itself -…

#Scoop is a terrific movie - well done Sam McAlister! Finally an authentic movie about journalism by someone who actually knows what it's like... and l loved the contrast between work/life - one minute you're talking to royalty, the next you're on a bus home via the kebab shop…

My quotes for car insurance this year range from £514 to £4308. If AI is supposed to make this smarter, that can only be a good thing

Amazon proudly tells me about all the tech it deploys to combat fake reviews but how does that help when sellers send postcards like this through the mail?
