I have tried to make this game accessible for users of VoiceOver, Talkback and other screenreaders, and I'm really interested to hear from anyone who uses these or other kinds of assistive tech.
Wordy, or Word·y, or WORD·Y (I haven't quite decided)... Anyway, it's a word puzzle game I recently created. Still in beta, I would love some feedback.
One word. Three connections. Find them all to solve the Y. #Wordy #WordGames
Do you know if these are being tracked anywhere as a growing list?
The report found that the OBR had uploaded its budget documents to a link which it believed to be inaccessible to the public. However, because the organisation was using a particular add-on to the WordPress publishing system, the link ended up being live, unbeknownst to the OBR itself.
2025:
A WordPress plug-in accidentally pushes something to live - the chair of a national institution resigns
OpenAI intentionally release products to a mass market that includes errors, manipulations and stolen material - cool, cool
Is this how it works?

Same. Also I think my introduction to the joy of outtakes.
25 years of agile software development and the media still can't grasp the basics of launching products early so they can be iterated to meet real user needs. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
Seems to be working? ☺️

I don't understand how it even worked... Did people sit there watching a "generating response ... please wait" hourglass go round and round while the actual humans worked up code in the background?
This is incredible!

Apologies, I hadn't meant to suggest they had/would. More that it's disappointing from Lloyds given that they lead on that annual digital skills report.
Oddly counter to this if true. www.lloydsbank.com/consumer-dig...
This is well worth reading on the human labour involved in reinforcement learning
Anthropic, of claude.ai fame, is asking job applicants not to use genAI in their applications to work at Anthropic. www.ft.com/content/9b1e...
Intrigued by the alt text for this post.
I realise my question mark implied I wasn't sure — but I was! We're in the process right now.
Shaw Trust?
Great to see this out in the open.
Dropping AI pilots isn't a bad thing. It underscores the importance of testing new tech before rolling them out. Particularly in welfare, where the risks of amplifying inequalities and causing real world harm are significant.

(Also, Google Lens is very good.)
Can't believe you don't remember me being there on the day.

There's a whole chapter of my photo archives comprising only Gaussian Blur images.
This was my concern after seeing the trailers/reviews. I suspect they thought of the title first. There are more interesting/niche defined numbers. Perfect numbers are ripe for "The Perfect Crime". Or Mersenne primes — "The Mersenne-ary"? There must be others.
This is a positive step towards embedding digital thinking at the heart of public service leadership, and mirrors the trend in the third sector in recent years.
[Thankfully, a footnote clarifies roles these as a CDIO, CTO, CDO, or a leader in service transformation, product, or customer experience with deep digital expertise.]
One significant requirement is that by 2026, all public sector organisations must include a digital leader on their executive committee and a digital non-executive director on their board. (Emphasis on the "and".)
