UK Immigration Crisis Sorted!

I've got the answer to the UK's dilemma of needing to provide sanctuary for a sensible number of refugees without opening the floodgates:- Prioritise atheists who can prove their indifference to deities by drawing cartoons, eating bacon sandwiches or simply stating 'there is no god'. Sod respect for antiquated tribal beliefs. Beliefs in fantasies are what lie at the heart of the tragic mess these poor people find themselves in. Providing refuge from the hells they are trying to leave means not letting them bring with them the potential for turning their new home into the same hell they left behind. Why let them in if they don't renounce the key factor that created divisions in their own societies.

And as far as making our borders safer from terrorist infiltration is concerned, can you see a budding jihadist willingly risking the wrath of his deity when confronted with a test of faith? Keeping your fingers crossed when you told a lie used to be a get-out for schoolboys, but I guess the cross thing means it doesn't work if you don't worship them - so there probably isn't an equivalent in other faiths.

If the freedom of their children's minds is such a big price to pay for entry to this country, then they will just have to find refuge where brainwashing is tolerated or encouraged. Pity we can't just take in their children. Indoctrinating young minds is a form of child abuse after all, no matter how well-meaning the motives. Does the UK have a responsibility to save children from the nuttiness of their parents? We already stop them from performing FGM, slavery and forcing underage girls from become brides and sex slaves. Why not from brainwashing?

Let's become a beacon for the world to attract immigrants who want to bring up their children without insisting that one holy book is any more likely to be dictated by a bloke on a cloud than any another. Make the UK the home of open minds, not antiquated dogma. Let's be deliberately disrespectful of fantasies and fairy-stories written by 'voice-hearing' people who had they been born in recent times, would have fascinated psychiatrists rather than disciples.

If Slovakians, Poles and Czechs can prioritise Christians being allowed entry, then we can prioritise enlightened people who would join the majority of Brits in rejecting being controlled by mystical books and the deluded clerics who claim their contents to be a better truth than all the others.

Sorted!

Oh and by the way. If we are a Christian country as our PM recently stated, then we're not being particularly Christian in barring immigrants from living here. We're actually a secular country, or at least ought to be, and we need to solve this issue pretty fast as more and more people attempt to 'swarm' in - as he also famously wished he hadn't said.

To kill or not to kill.

Had an interesting discussion with a Muslim friend today about the ethics of killing. Could it ever be morally justifiable? Abrahamic scriptures, especially the old testament, are awash with murders and killings, some sanctioned by the prophets and assorted mouthpieces for god. Some killing is even mandatory. For example all Jews are instructed in the old Testament to kill everyone belonging to the 7 Canaanite tribes for example - Deut 20:17 , or to slaughter Amaleks, especially their children - Deut 25:19 . So accepting for a moment that these draconian instructions were written in times when tribal leaders had fewer options available to them with respect to managing miscreants and maintaining some sort of law and order, I suspect that most people today would agree that killing people is a bad thing and should not be condoned except under extraordinary circumstances. My friend and I then proceeded to try to list those circumstances. We started with self-defence or perhaps protecti...

Phillips screws - yes I'm angry about them too

Don't get me wrong. They're a brilliant invention to assist automation and prevent screwdrivers from slipping off screw heads - damaging furniture, paintwork and fingers in the process. Interestingly they weren't invented by Mr Phillips at all, but by a John P Thompson who sold Mr P the idea after failing to commercialise it. Mr P, on the otherhand, quickly succeeded where Mr T had failed. Incredible isn't it. You don't just need a good idea, you need a great salesman and, more importantly, perfect timing to make a success out of something new. Actually, it would seem, he did two clever things (apart from buying the rights). He gave the invention to GM to trial. No-brainer #1. After it was adopted by the great GM, instead of trying to become their sole supplier of Phillips screws, he sold licenses to every other screw manufacturer in the world. A little of a lot is worth a great deal more than a lot of a little + vulnerability (watch out Apple!). My gromble is abo...

Review of the world's first AI product launched in 1988 - Tome Searcher

I am tired of reading and hearing statements by press and politicians alike that companies like OpenAI (the creators of ChatGPT) started the AI revolution. Just today, with the announcement of the Stargate data centre project, the BBC's Verify (?!) website stated "OpenAI kicked off the AI race in 2022". I'm not claiming that a little company in London called Tome Associates Ltd, of which I was a founding director, started AI in the 1980s. There were already plenty of people exploring it around the world at the time. Indeed a project called Logic Theorist, developed in 1955 by Newell and Simon at the Rand Corporation in California, is probably the world's first AI application. But to the best of my knowledge, Tome Associates were the first company in the world to launch a commercial product based on AI... which subsequently met a resounding blank look from everyone we showed it to. People were fascinated, but confused about what to do with it (don't forget Tim ...
