Todays spicy opinion is that Microsoft Word and Google Docs aren't 'real' word processors.

Which is why so many people think — is some esoteric AI only grammar.

I think what is going to happen is that lab-grown meat will gradually catch up with real animals and when that happens we will all quietly admit that the vegans were right about factory farming
i'm convinced if we ever tried to touch the rail of meat politics in America (something that's going to eventually need to happen in order to reduce CO2 emissions), it would lead to a huge right-wing shock
remembering the time a random catholic priest got mad at me about a hypothetical about the government restricting meat production on the other site

meat politics is going to be insane for the next Dem administration which takes climate change seriously, imo

Britain is not ready for High Frequency Bureaucracy.

Use of LLMs on all sides is going to upend the current system. Councils, Companies, Consumers, etc etc.

It's smart contracts or bust

I finished the first draft of Episode 302 of Permanently Moved today.
Permission To Start Again | Weeknotes
I didn’t quite understand what it meant back then. That a piece could define its own vessel, as I did it the other way around.

Over on the other place the Don't Die guy just took 5g(!) of of magic mushrooms on a livestream.

Bold move for someone trying so desperately hard not to meet God early.

while Acid Corbynism lived and died in a few Tinder bios and Repeater-adjacent panel discussions, Acid Patriotism feels much more real, a phenomenon that seems to be becoming par for the course in Chaos Britain.

This is #actuallyexistingsolarpunk: the realisation that the tools we already have to hand are far more transformative, and more ecologically beneficial in every sense, than all the speculation around novel digital technologies: bsky.app/profile/jame...
"Actually existing AI" is a phrase I use a lot, to separate reality from hype. "Actually existing solarpunk" is one I might start using. Because I genuinely believe that a general energy transition is *more possible* than general artificial intelligence, and more exciting and more equitable.
