UK journalist in SF covering security, space, and science, and stuff that looks fun. Into sailing, F1, F5, the Oxford comma, and Marmite. All views my own. Signal: iainthomson.60 if you want to talk. Reluctantly siliconlimey on Insta & iainthomson on X.

The latest View from the Valley is up. And for once the @ianbetteridge.com law does not apply IMO - and I'm not alone.

I've seen a lot of Tesla stickers decrying Elon Musk but this one, spotted on today's hike, really takes the biscuit.

I'd heard rumors that JCD was in trouble but it's now been confirmed. One of the first-generation tech journalists has gone 404, and we're all a little poorer for it. One of the benefits of working at PC Magazine was getting an advance look at his column before everyone else. Never dull reading.

Dear @hntdove.bsky.social, you are an utter wanker :) Loved Three Miles Down but you've got to give us a sequel. You can't just end on that.

It's been 50 years since the first successful landing on Mars. Mankind will get there, one day. It does make sense not to have humanity's eggs in one basket but anyone born on Mars is going to find Earth's gravity impossible to deal with. But it's likely there is life there. Roll David Bowie.

While I've heard good things about The Odyssey, I'd pay more money to see this.

Was interviewing someone in a downtown cafe and they have the footie on. Took all my resolve not to check the phone when I heard the roars. Get in there England, the hopium is strong.

I'm still baffled by a recipe that calls for one anchovy fillet. Once the can's opened anything left over gets scoffed.

Looks like someone left their belongings on BART. Luckily no smell. First time I've seen something like this on the train in over a decade.

Can't say I liked her policies but this is a shocking case of suspected murder.
