Fraser Groups' use of facial recognition cameras is straight out of the dystopian playbook.

It's invasive and discriminatory and shouldn't be allowed.

Britain in Crisis?

Yeah, but it's not because of Brexit. It's because of 44 years of private-sector extremism.

Brexit was a response to the crisis that preceded it. The crisis may have been made worse by Brexit, but it wasn't started by it.

That's just cool. A modern myth

Physicists are often better than mathematicians in solving complicated integrals.

That is because solving them involves some black art of mixing analytics and numerical methods any proper mathematician would kill us for if they knew https://twitter.com/LongFormMath/status/1649856141474795520
