London gets a tiny-but-mighty commute update as TfL redesigns the Baby on Board badge — because sometimes a bit of visual signalling does more than a thousand glares. Alan Leer also breaks down the government’s latest numbers on getting a million people online, plus what the UK’s 2G switch-off guidance means for older phones and those sneaky “smart” devices you forgot even exist. After the break, it’s a proper science gut-punch: Nature reports the UK’s main airborne climate and pollution research aircraft is being switched off. Then we end on a brighter note with a Nature Communications sodium-ion battery chemistry result built for extreme cold — and a quick check-in on the UK games industry as TIGA calls for support. More on all of it at standard.co.uk — and follow Tech and Science Daily from The Standard for your weekday briefing.
