Episode 24: What Black Sheep?
from 69 Admins
This week's episode opens with a quick discussion inspired by a post seen on the BlueSky social network. We are against bureaucrats of all types doing stupid, unthinking, uncaring things. We strongly support the Very Short Introduction series of books from Oxford University Press and encourage you to pick up an item from your local library to read today. We discussed a few news stories in this episode. We especially discussed why content creators should not be using Google at this time if they can help it.
