Language always revealed whether you’re rich or poor. A gatekeeper for jobs, grants, and socializing. Until recently, when most communication became written, and you could install a free LanguageTool to polish up the words which give away your background.

#Brand safety.
The text in French reads: As we wait for the #climate emergency to be treated as an emergency, who’s looking after the kids?
And yes — there’s a reason #Champagne glasses have those long stems. A reliable IQ-and-culture indicator bleeding through this page.

Just finished walking through Kathryn Bigelow’s “A House of Dynamite”. The film is about a missed ICBM atta… erm… Let’s call it “fly through” over Canada and into the USA. (1/60)

Пока сложилось впечатление, что особенно русофонные #Threads — какая-то справочная на площади Ленина, где ждут ответов на все вопросы от незнакомых прохожих.
Кто-то даже уверяет, что «я загуглю, но от живых людей всегда узнаю более интересную информацию.»

Why no one talks about existential #AGI risk? Shouldn’t we be worried about all of us dying? Or becoming well-fed pets in a locked-down zoo?

So you’re struggling to finance your #feature #film. Or buy a “pro” camera. Or just a MacBook to type a novel. Or pay rent. Maybe just fix that gnawing tooth-ache?
How about an AC, now that +40℃ is the new normal?
Then you see how much we spend on bombing each other.
#Actions = real priorities.

Already today, #entertainment is digital — Netflix, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, OF. Solitary, seamless, and instantly gratifying. 9,99 per month. Now imagine adding an #LLM tailored to your personal data (like OpenAI’s custom instructions):

The Silo series, like The Expanse, aspires to blend intricate sociodynamics with grounded engineering realism. Or does it dig its way down? The core of both stories — scientia potentia est — is clear. Knowledge is power.

Ever copied #ChatGPT content into #Word? The Markdown doesn’t match your styles, and “paste as text only” nukes all structure and embellishments. Frustrating.
So I wrote a #Node.JS script. It grabs ChatGPT’s “Copy” button’s output, converts it to RTF, and maps it to your predefined Word styles.

If someone’s only definition of freedom is “I can do whatever I want if I have a lot of money” and they tend to Bask in Reflected Glory (BIRG) — they are easy prey to the #psychopaths

Americans’ exposure to economics is limited to a 15-week course in school, focused on US-centric, outdated free-market principles. The curriculum neglects behavioral economics, socialism vs communism, global trade, and… tariffs.

– So what do you do?
– Oh, I sing REM, The Eagles and Boney M. covers. My music’s played in supermarkets. It’s very well paid!
– Uhm…
– I can’t write my own lyrics anyway. And I can’t invent new #music either, to be honest. My next album is all #ChatGPT, though. How about you?
– Well…

#Aslice, a music revenue-sharing platform launched by DJ and producer DVS1 (Zak Khutoretsky) in 2022, has announced its permanent closure. It encouraged DJs to report setlists and pay a percentage of their fee to the artists they played—a variant of Germany’s GEMA-Vermutung.

Music Interpolation. Or how no one actually cares about what they listen to. Even if it’s #theft. Or uncredited #LLM regurgitation. Hey, I bet you probably won’t care about this video by #RickBeato either.

Ever wondered about the heart-rate accuracy of the cheapest #AppleWatch compared to a medical-grade ECG chest strap? I did: github.com/Anatoly-IVAN...
Results? Surprisingly close.
