Thank you, BBC, for a story that’s a delight to read:
A man is walking 53 miles (85km) in a homemade bird costume to raise awareness and funds for conservation projects.
Mr Trevelyan said: "Those who know me well know I was eventually going to build a giant curlew.”

Now is the time: Nextcloud supports EuroStack's open letter calling for technological sovereignty - Nextcloud
Today, the need for a sovereign European technology stack is more urgent than ever. It is the only way for Europe to make itself more independent from political and economic blackmail – a scenario that seems more and more threatening.Thomas Ritter (Nextcloud)
Just one little tweak: Favour European *and other friendly democracies*.
And if we really mean what we talk about, apply credible "trade penalties" on regimes that are dictatorships or worse.
Asking to join is certainly a good idea. But it would help, if you linked the actual letter (one has to go through one of the articles referenced below your blog post).

Truly my greatest professional joy is that, not only did we get to build a tool to help people stop AI bots from scraping up their work without consent, I was able to have our in-house artist create a SLOP sign to mark the spot where the bots expire.
If you are a non-profit or open source project that does good internet stuff, we’ll protect you for free. If not, then you can pay us money and we will hook you up. Either way, good tools to put you in control over the bots. fastly.com/blog/take-back-cont…

From the first #EarthDay: Students in St. Louis marched wearing masks to protest smog and air pollution.
The inaugural 1970 protests drew millions, and led to the creation of the EPA and clean air standards.
With science under greater attack than ever, we need more of this activism today!

New UX models have friction.
The Mach E has a push button door: push the button first, pop the door. It works once "you've read the manual" Two problems:
1. As I approached the car at Avis it was dark, I couldn't see the button at all so couldn't get it, I had to ask someone to let me in.
2. When I picked up my son at the airport, he had no idea how to open the passenger door so I had to open it from the inside.
Ford may keep this, but it's going to be a painful road. #ux
