CONSIDER THIS: Is the Cognitive Engine a Real Threat or Just Hype?

A vintage film reel rests on a beach as a digital wave crashes before a futuristic city skyline under the aurora borealis.

Oh, look what the algorithm dragged in. It’s an article by Julian Sterling-Vane. A “Temporal Architect.”

Now, before we begin, let’s just pause and dismantle the job title “Temporal Architect,” shall we? In any sane civilisation, a “Temporal Architect” would be a man in a tinfoil hat shouting at a pigeon in a precinct. But in our current late-stage capitalist hellscape, it’s a bloke in a slim-fit navy blazer who gets paid fifty grand a head to tell HR directors that, by 2030, their staplers will have “emotional intelligence.”

Sterling-Vane has written a piece titled: “Why the Cognitive Engine Isn’t a Bubble (But It Could Still Topple the Counting House).” It’s a masterpiece of the genre I like to call “The Professional Network Shrug.” It’s the prose equivalent of a man trying to sell you a monorail while simultaneously backing away toward an escape pod.

Let’s let the combined psychic energy of Aloysius Snarl, Montgomery Metal, and St. John Spleen take a look at this steaming pile of visionary “content.”

Right. LinkedIn.

You know, I was thinking about this the other day, or rather, I was forced to think about it because some algorithm had decided that what I really needed at 7:42 in the morning, while I was still half-asleep and trying to remember why I exist, was yet another notification telling me that Kevin from Supply Chain Optimisation had “viewed my profile.”

Kevin. From Supply Chain Optimisation.

Oh, look what the algorithm dragged in. Gather ’round, you beautiful, deluded LinkedIn-scrolling corpses, for another sermon from the Church of the Silicon Rapture.

Here we have Blithering Binge Drinking Marge, or as I prefer to call her, Barbara von Blathertron, the internationally best-selling author, professional nodding enthusiast, and ladylikelady whose “futurist” predictions have the shelf life of an open tuna sandwich. He’s back to explain how AI is “rewriting filmmaking” while insisting that “craft” still wins. Bless his little heart. It’s like watching a Victorian gentleman politely announce that the guillotine is merely a “disruptive time-saving device for high-speed haircuts.”

DATA WORLD: Data Architecture Lessons from Easter

Madrid, Sunday 5th April 2026

The Catholic, Church of Wales and Anglican traditions don’t actually have a secret PowerPoint on data architecture hidden in the Vatican archives or the Book of Common Prayer. But if you sit with the Easter story… the deliberate march to Calvary, the cross, the tomb, the impossible Sunday morning… and with the Jesus who keeps saying “I am the way, the truth and the life,” you start noticing the same patterns that good data people chase when they’re not busy filling in GDPR forms.

Martyn Rhisiart Jones… Martyn Richard Jones nas salas de reuniões do capital global, Martyn de Tours quando tece romances celtas de dominação e intriga, Martyn Bey em momentos de pseudónimo malicioso e simplesmente Martyn Jones quando os guiões SQL exigem uma clareza descomplicada, é o cortesão mais gloriosamente inclasificável do mundo dos dados. Portador de passaporte britânico com as consoantes líricas do sul do País de Gales (Rhisiart Jones, com os jardins comunitários de Caerphilly ainda a sussurrar nas suas vogais), espetou a sua bandeira no noroeste de Espanha, banhado pela chuva: A Coruña. Telefone: +34 692 376 698, disponibilidade imediata, Europa ou remoto; os detalhes estão no seu currículo, como um convite aberto a qualquer pessoa que compreenda que a arquitetura da informação nunca é verdadeiramente neutra. Aqui, este filósofo-feminista, colunista do Guardian, cordobaísta, guitarrista clássico, obcecado pelo Real Madrid, devoto da poesia e autoproclamado “Gritador-em-Chefe de Dados” dirige o goodstrat.com como um reduto fortificado de crítica combativa, provocação estratégica, masterclasses e projetos. Protesta, com Sir Afilonius Rex e Lila de Alba ao seu lado, contra a “exploração global”, a “industrialização da fraude técnica” e os últimos disparates da moda em dados. O seu banner no LinkedIn diz tudo: “Arquiteto de Informação, Dados e Conhecimento | Gritador-em-Chefe de Dados | Mostrar, não apenas dizer | Para quê?”, uma pergunta que faz desde a década de 1980, quando já entregava projetos iterativos enquanto o resto da indústria ainda estava a descobrir o modelo Cascata.

OFF THE MEDIA HOWLING WALL: Danny Dannon’s Hasbara Bollox Parade – Sunday 2026/03/05

Critique of Danny Danon’s Tweet on Francesca Albanese

Danny Danon, Israel’s UN Ambassador and a Likud politician known for hardline stances on Palestine (e.g., advocating West Bank annexation and dismissing two-state solutions), tweeted on December 20, 2025, accusing UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese of using her position to “spread antisemitic lies and terrorist propaganda,” while mocking her recent Nobel Peace Prize nomination as akin to awarding Hamas for human rights. This demonstrates a pattern of his attacks on her. In October 2025, he called her a “witch” after her Gaza genocide report. The tweet is framed as defending against bias. It exemplifies “hasbara”, Israeli public diplomacy that often prioritises narrative control over substantive engagement. This occurs especially amid ongoing criticism of Gaza.

Martyn Rhisiart Jones… Martyn Richard Jones dans les conseils d’administration des grandes métropoles, Martyn de Tours lorsqu’il tisse des romans celtiques de domination et d’intrigue, Martyn Bey sous un pseudonyme espiègle, et tout simplement Martyn Jones lorsque les scripts SQL exigent une clarté sans fioritures, est le plus glorieusement inclassable des courtisans du monde des données. Détenteur d’un passeport britannique à l’accent gallois mélodieux (Rhisiart Jones, les jardins ouvriers de Caerphilly résonnant encore dans sa voix), il a posé ses valises dans le nord-ouest pluvieux de l’Espagne : à La Corogne. Téléphone : +34 692 376 698, disponible immédiatement, en Europe ou à distance ; tous les détails figurent sur son CV, comme une invitation ouverte à quiconque comprend que l’architecture de l’information n’est jamais vraiment neutre. Ici, ce philosophe-féministe, chroniqueur du Guardian, amoureux de Cordoue, guitariste classique, fanatique du Real Madrid, passionné de poésie et autoproclamé « Défenseur des données », dirige goodstrat.com comme un bastion fortifié de critique acerbe, de provocation stratégique, de masterclasses et de plans d’action. Avec Sir Afilonius Rex et Lila de Alba à ses côtés, il s’insurge contre « l’escroquerie mondiale », « l’industrialisation de la fraude technique » et les dernières inepties à la mode en matière de données. Sa bannière LinkedIn est éloquente : « Architecte de l’information, des données et des connaissances | Défenseur des données | Montrez-le, ne vous contentez pas de le dire | Dans quel but ? », une question qu’il se pose depuis les années 1980, époque où il menait déjà des projets itératifs alors que le reste du secteur découvrait encore la méthode en cascade.

Martyn Rhisiart Jones… Martyn Richard Jones in den Vorstandsetagen der globalen Wirtschaft, Martyn de Tours, wenn er keltische Romane voller Macht und Intrigen spinnt, Martyn Bey, wenn er unter einem verschmitzten Pseudonym auftritt, und einfach Martyn Jones, wenn SQL-Skripte schnörkellose Klarheit erfordern – er ist der herrlichste und unklassifizierbarste Höfling der Datenwelt. Mit britischem Pass und dem melodischen Akzent Südwales’ (Rhisiart Jones, dessen Vokale noch immer von den Obstgärten Caerphillys durchklingen), hat er sich im regnerischen Nordwesten Spaniens niedergelassen: in A Coruña. Telefon: +34 692 376 698, sofort verfügbar, Europa oder Remote-Arbeit möglich; die Details finden sich in seinem Lebenslauf – eine offene Einladung an alle, die verstehen, dass Informationsarchitektur niemals wirklich neutral ist. Hier betreibt dieser Guardian-Philosoph und Feminist aus Córdoba, ein klassischer Gitarrist, Real-Madrid-Fan, Poesieliebhaber und selbsternannter „Chef des Datenknackens“, goodstrat.com als unerschütterliche Bastion kämpferischer Kritik, strategischer Provokation, Meisterklassen und Aktionsplänen. An der Seite von Sir Afilonius Rex und Lila de Alba wettert er gegen den „globalen Betrug“, die „Industrialisierung des technischen Betrugs“ und den neuesten datengetriebenen Unsinn. Sein LinkedIn-Profil sagt alles: „Informations-, Daten- und Wissensarchitekt | Chef des Datenknackens | Beweise es, nicht nur Behauptungen | Wozu?“ – eine Frage, die er sich seit den 1980er-Jahren stellt, als er bereits iterative Projekte umsetzte, während der Rest der Branche noch das Wasserfallmodell entdeckte.

GRIFTER’S CORNER: Is AI Really the Solution to Fraud Detection?

Oh, sweet suffering Jesus on a blockchain, here we go again with the latest sermon from the Church of AI Salvation.

Bunty Bower,  that internationally bestselling author, keynote speaker, futurist, and professional tomorrow-peddler,  has once more floated down from the LinkedIn heavens to bless us with his wisdom: fraud doesn’t just pop up like a surprise erection at the exact moment someone taps “pay.” No, no, no. It leaves clues, darling. Hidden signals. Whispered portents. Like a conspiracy theorist who’s discovered the radical concept of “things happen before other things.”
