Ah, les états d’origine des galés. Fueron les révolutionnaires silencieux et les escurridizos Padres Fundadores. Ce sont les chicos et les chicas qui ont essentiellement construit le pays. Vous allez ensuite disparaître dans le papier peint comme si vous deviez de l’argent !
Ah, los estadounidenses de origen galés. Fueron los revolucionarios silenciosos y los escurridizos Padres Fundadores. Estos son los chicos y chicas que básicamente construyeron la mitad del país. ¡Y luego desaparecieron en el papel pintado como si debieran dinero!
Ah, Americans of Welsh origin. They were the quiet revolutionaries and the sneaky Founding Fathers. These are the guys and gals who basically built half the USA. Then, they vanished into the wallpaper like they owed money!
Weaving the Dragon’s Data: A Welsh-Inspired Tale for Enterprise Architects in the New Year – 2026/01/01
The calendar turns to a fresh page in this crisp January of 2026. We, enterprise data and information architects, stand at a new threshold. Another year welcomes us, brimming with digital transformations. Data lakes swell like the River Taff after a storm. Information architectures evolve like the ancient mountain tops of Snowdonia. But amidst the algorithms and schemas, let’s pause for a moment of whimsy. What if we drew inspiration from the misty realms of Welsh myths and legends? Wales, that land of dragons and bards, offers a tapestry of stories. These stories mirror our quests: taming chaotic data into structured wisdom. They are about preserving cultural legacies in vast repositories. They ignite innovation from the sparks of history. In this Happy New Year ode, we’ll begin a narrative journey through Welsh lore. It is infused with the spirits of its iconic figures. Dylan Thomas, Dannie Abse, Richard Burton, Shirley Bassey, Paul Robeson, and Gwynfor Evans are part of this infusion. These spirits illuminate the art of data stewardship.

لا ينتهي الصراع العنيف بالقوة وحدها. يعلمنا التاريخ أن السبيل الوحيد للخروج من الحرب والوحشية والمعاناة هو التفاوض. والتفاوض، في الواقع، يتطلب دائمًا تقديم تنازلات.
مع ذلك، تُوصم الدعوات إلى الحوار اليوم في كثير من الأحيان بالضعف، أو ما هو أسوأ، بالانحياز إلى الإرهابيين. هذه كذبة خطيرة. إن الدعوة إلى السلام ليست تأييدًا للعنف، بل هي تأكيد على قيمة الحياة، واعتراف بكرامة المجتمعات وبقائها.
Насильственный конфликт не заканчивается одной лишь силой. История учит нас, что единственный выход из войны, жестокости и страданий — это переговоры. А переговоры в реальном мире всегда требуют компромисса.
Однако сегодня призывы к диалогу слишком часто клеймят как слабость или, что еще хуже, как «поддержку террористов». Это опасная ложь. Выступая за мир, мы не одобряем насилие. Мы настаиваем на ценности жизни. Мы признаем достоинство общин и выживание общества.
The BBC’s Perpetual Storm: A Chronicle of Universal Discontent
Martyn Rhisiart Jones
Santiago de Compostela, 14th December 2025
London’s Broadcasting House is the BBC’s home. The air hums with the ceaseless rhythm of newsrooms. The ghosts of Reithian ideals linger in the corridors. The British Broadcasting Corporation stands as a colossus of public media. At its outset, the BBC was to “inform, educate and entertain” Reith carefully placed the words in that order. It is the Latin inscription in the hallway of Old Broadcasting House.
Violent conflict does not end through force alone. History teaches us that the only way out of war, brutality, and suffering is through negotiation. And negotiation, in the real world, always requires compromise.
Yet today, calls for dialogue are too often branded as weakness, or worse, as ‘siding with terrorists.’ This is a dangerous lie. Advocating for peace is not an endorsement of violence. It is an insistence on the value of life. It is a recognition of the dignity of communities and the survival of societies.
If anything, taxes for the lower and middle class and maybe even the upper-middle class should even probably be cut further. But I think that people at the high end – people like myself – should be paying a lot more in taxes. We have it better than we’ve ever had it.
US liberals still don’t get it, do they? I was particularly unimpressed by The Guardian’s US correspondent, Richard Wolffe, who wrote this of Trump “He is the very man Hillary Clinton warned us that he would be.”
Like as if we really need the advice of an entitled and arrogant warmonger about any other unhinged member of the globalised political circus.
