It's still technically Thursday, so my weekly "Lets talk tech Thursday" newsletter is not lying! This week I talk about Palantir and their increasing foothold in UK life. Also, AI music fraud, trial social media bans, and for something a little more light-hearted, what happened when two devs released different games with the same name.

If any of that sounds interesting, I'd be honoured if you have it a read: https://buttondown.com/willrc/archive/lets-talk-tech-thursday-23/

Also, my blog spotlight this week is a cracking deep dive into how webpages work, and why a single page of the New York Times is more information than an entire music album. I thoroughly recommend reading @pheonix's The 49MB Web Page

The 49MB Web Page

A look at modern news websites. How programmatic ad-tech, huge payloads and hostile architecture destroyed the reading experience.

@willrc sounds like a packed issue, i'm genuinely curious about the devs releasing games with the same name!
