Did Tim Harford just quote Black Adder?!

Anyone not listening to More Or Less at this stage is part of the problem.

again a good and important episode from #MoreOrLess from #BBC #Radio4. But I fear that once again it won't reach the people it should.

Another great episode by #MoreOrLess
Not that true MGA heads want to know the truth... but who knows, maybe it keeps one or two people believing the lies. Only problem is that with 8 1/2 minutes it exceeds most people's attention span by... 8 minutes and 20 seconds
87 different shows, 1081 episodes, 30 days 4 hours 52 minutes in total. RA Podcast was my most listened show. Completion rate this year was 94%.

@xahteiwi Cautionary Tales FTW. Or really anything with Tim Harford #MoreOrLess
Time for the latest #drachinifel #5minuteGuide (#moreOrLess) :)
Today is the Spanish Torpedo Boat Destructor, which can also be considered an early destroyer...
“All I ask is that my results should convince seekers after truth that there is beyond doubt something worth while seeking, attainable by methods more or less like mine.”
"...hand-waving dismissal of the climate challenges posed by Tim’s economic cure is reminiscent of the partisan political nonsense that Skint claims to have risen above" - As a fellow-fan of #MoreOrLess, disappointed to read this review from

One for #BBC's #MoreOrLess perhaps?
#TimHarford claims in #Skint that "Economic #growth doesn’t have to destroy the planet" and "In the UK we’ve had huge amounts of economic growth in my lifetime, & yet our emissions of carbon dioxide per person have more than halved"
but #KevinAnderson looks more deeply at these claims

huh, I didn't know exit polls in the UK were created by asking people to fill in duplicate ballots https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0020phz #bbc #radio4 #moreorless (last ep of More or Less for now, I'll miss it)
On the lighter side of #UKPolitics, @CountBinface 's croissant policy got analysed by #MoreOrLess the other day. And The Count is proudly letting it be known.
There are many good points in the YouTube comments, including (but far from limited to: have a read) why the BBC is ignoring the #Ceefax policy, and how it was clearly edited footage as the BBC programme hadn't mentioned Nigel Farage once.
Being afraid if AI is like being afraid of a hammer. Yes, hammer can kill you. But it's a tool. It depends on who's using it. Hammer wouldn't suddenly jump from the workbench and starts hitting you in the head.
Same with AI, it's just a tool. Also, it is actually not AI but a great imitator. Nothing against imitation but that's no intelligence. #AI #is #hammer #moreorless

“I admit that my visions can never mean to other men as much as they do to me. I do not regret this. All I ask is that my results should convince seekers after truth that there is beyond doubt something worth while seeking, attainable by methods more or less like mine. I do not want to father a flock, to be the fetish of fools and fanatics, or the founder of a faith whose followers are content to echo my opinions. I want each man to cut his own way through the jungle.”
