Friday links for May 1st 2026
As it’s Friday, time for links:
1. The more young people use AI, the more they hate it
Perhaps civilisation will keep going for a while yet. Turns out the kids are ok. Archived version, just in case.
2. Nearly half of UK businesses pwned last year
These are UK stats, but I’d be surprised if they were different elsewhere: nearly half of businesses have been hacked, not by a hooded genius, but by Joe in HR clicking a “you’ve won an iPad!” link.
A site that tests the ad blocker in your browser or network to see how good (or bad) it is. I hit 78%, so I can still make some progress in my paranoia.
4. Cursor Camp
This is really fun. There used to be more gizmos like this on the web. Just hang out with other cursors and enjoy…
See you on the other side of the weekend,
Colin
