Usbourne's 1980s computer books are free to download
"Many of today's tech professionals were inspired by the Usborne computing books they read as children. The books included program listings for such iconic computers as the ZX Spectrum, the BBC Micro and the Commodore 64, and are still used in some computer clubs today."

"Buckingham Palace also unveiled a new emoji, of the St Edward’s crown, to mark the coronation weekend." I didn't realise the Palace was a member of the Unicode Consortium... https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/apr/09/king-charles-iii-coronation-procession-route

Does anyone else in their 50s just not recognise the way 50 year olds are portrayed in the media?

Instead of a Bible, Dr. Lystrup's hand rests on a hardback copy of Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot.

@xtaldave Private school here also. Never voted tory. Don’t intend to start now despite being <age>.
@arclight Godot has its quirks, but is definitely easy to get “something” functional up and running quickly.
This has got to be the clumsiest headline I have ever read. Well done, BBC. 👏

Nigel Lawson has died. But despite the overwhelming evidence of science, for balance we’re going to talk to somebody who says he hasn’t.
@gpowerf Ah, Ludlow, home to the old Zzap! 64 offices.
