Then this

I rather like this Municipal Audit Tracker that Alistair Otter maintains in terms of clarity of communication.

I hope everyone has already read this killer post from Rachel Coldicutt but just in case you haven't... here it is The Sports Car Theory of LLM Adoption.
"LLMs are most useful for people who know what they are doing – experienced people who can spot errors quickly, know the obvious pitfalls, and feel frustrated they can’t get more junior staff to do exactly the thing they asked for. They are made for the kind of people who think “if only there were 10 of me” on a regular basis and who might secretly wish they were still doing the job they got promoted from 15 years ago." seems spot on to me.

Over in Nightingale Debasmita Basu says We Taught Students to Read Graphs, but We Forgot to Teach Them to Question Themselves. I thought this was really interesting.

This is a list I compile on a weeklyish basis and email to subscribers. I also share the link on Mastodon, Bluesky and LinkedIn. It's a list of data vacancies in nonprofit organisations that have caught my eye. I don't endorse any of the organisations or roles.

Salaries are usually FTE and usually include London weighting if applicable. This list is very UK focused and even for remote jobs you are likely to need the right to work in the UK.
