Same. Stormont front square where the matches are is about a 10 minute walk from my house. I’ll be there 😊

No Maia Bouchier, Danni Wyatt, Nat Sciver-Brunt, or Lauren Bell in the England ODI squad for Ireland.
But the selected squad does have several of the normal first team picks. And a good selection of upcoming players who you’ll know from The Hundred.
First match at Stormont on 7th September.

A 4-minute drone video of the latest Icelandic eruption taken not long after it started. With real audio (I think). From Isak Finnbogason. Spectacular. 🌋

yep, read the article. It’s for specific types of AI.

“The EU's flagship AI Act will come into force on 1st August. Two years after that date, virtually all producers, suppliers and deployers of AI systems in its scope will need to be compliant.”
The act only applies to "prohibited", "high-risk”, and "limited-risk" AI systems, so it may not apply to the GenAI and similar tools that have exploded in popularity recently.

So, I get the feeling from my feed that the Olympics opening ceremony was particularly French?
