Fun tip for InDesign updaters out there – it now defaults to preserving InDesign editing when you export to PDF, so suddenly a single page could be 30MB. Tick that off when you export, you'll save yourself a headache.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Victoria, be careful following David Crisafulli & Queensland down the singular, slogan based punitive approach to youth justice. Consult widely, look at all solutions. Don't let other crimes such as DV & sexual assault be pushed aside in the election frenzy. #springst

The ASD is hammering the ads on LinkedIn atm, and it's curious because if you click through you will see there are just two roles available... and one of them is an open call to sumbit your CV, complete a form and agree to being vetted.
Is this the easiest intelligence fishing expedition in history?

The Allan government is so desperate to hang on to power they're pushing a 1990s era policy in suggesting kids over 14 could get LIFE for violent crime. It's broken logic to suggest that because someone has done a violent crime they have taken on that responsibility and should be treated thus
Possible life sentences for children under Victorian crime crackdown
Children aged 14 and above will face adult sentences in adult courts if caught committing violent crimes such as home invasions, in sweeping new reforms by the Allan government.

WHAT'S up YouTube, it's your boy Bartleby the Scrivener here, coming at you for another day of the I Would Prefer Not To challenge. Be sure to SMASH that subscribe button and hit that bell so you don't miss a single video. If you saw last week's video, you'll know I am now SLEEPING in the office.

The boyfriend of a friend of my son's has spent several weeks in a psych ward due to Chat GPT induced psychosis. He isn't suicidal but AI encouraged him down a toxic and paranoid wormhole until he became completely delusional. Evil stuff.
1.This is not the only known example we know of ChatGPT cheering on a vulnerable young person to die by suicide, this time it is a recent Texas A&M grad
2. Every single university that has invited OpenAI into our midst should be asked to account for their choices.

You (a fool): The LLM is an all-knowing oracle, on its way to godlike intelligence

Me (dumber): The LLM is Indra’s Net, each fundamentally empty token a multifaceted jewel in whose surfaces the reflections of every other jewel arise in mutual interdependence

"Ruthless"? Dude would have been fired 30-40 years ago in a normal job.
After years of damaging headlines over his ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, Buckingham Palace finally acted.

King Charles III’s brother Andrew was stripped of his “prince” title and evicted from his Royal Lodge mansion.
Five times the British royal family has been ruthless with its own
The royal family can move quite swiftly against its members if it feels under threat.

And people say Australian regulators have no power. A good reminder that using your powers rather than being afraid of your own shadow is always the better option.

Aus is supposed to be a country where the rule of law & natural justice applies. The Gov’s sneaky attempt to strip welfare from people before they’ve been convicted of any crime is a fundamental breach of these principles. We may as well dissolve the court system. #auspol #politas

imagine you’re at a bar and some weenie introduces himself as the “head of generative AI at coca cola”
Another quote from Coca-Cola's Head of Generative-AI:

“The haters on the Internet are the loudest. A lot of the people complaining last year were from the creative industry who were just afraid"

I've been seeing the "We Live In Time" posters and ads for like a year now, and I still can't read it as anything but a "We Live In A Society" joke

It's interesting that the Youtube channel of a Canadian motorsport retailer has put together possibly the best condensed explanation of why ad sales on the internet (and their alleged empiricism vs traditional ads) are a scam that's leaching off legitimate sales www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfNI...

When your social media policy says you can't explicitly critique political figures but you really want to say the name "JD Vance"
why would he come for online trads like this

It's weird that trying to appeal to a conservative voter base apparently involves hitting yourself over the head with a hammer enough times that you can't recall the last 50 years of cultural history.
My only music merch is a Glenn Miller bowtie that also says "God Bless Our Troops" on the band.
