You can't make good decisions on bad information.
How you do things matters. Amazing.

Pretty sure the Trump administration is setting up a win/win scenario with the Palestine provocation; this is how you get violence that ensures military responses under your control.

This is profoundly important to kids today, who are often stuck inside and have no path towards outside skills within their family. Towards boys and girls both who need fresh air and to see the wilderness as it is.

When discussing AI, "motivation" was the thing that it was missing to be considered intelligent, and also the thing that scares me most.
As we attempt to build autonomous AI systems, we're discovering that agency—a capability we take for granted in animals—may be much more complex than we imagined, writes @tonyzador.bsky.social, in the latest essay in our NeuroAI series.

Why do evangelical folks hate the notion of climate change so much? God only said he wouldn't do it himself, not that we can't DIY our own disasters.

Ok this is a deeply underrated control. Don't disclose shit you don't need to in designing your error outputs.

I never see folks taking about it, so good job to this crew!

This is true, and true of most messaging apps.

That said: if you know how to effectively use encrypted messaging apps for organization, you NEED to be using Signal.

Signal does not allow you to turn encryption off. Signal has solid design and has undergone significant analysis.

Just use Signal.

No writer is a failure until they are dead. Full stop. A career in writing is built over decades. It's built like a house, brick by brick, book by book. Not published yet? Emphasis on YET. Book not selling? It's not selling YET. You're only done when you quit.
