Yep. Machine learning is important. LLMs and image models are not.

Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.

It's $5, not your first-born child! I need that $5 for health insurance!

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

Hmm, I bet taking care of yourself by getting vaccinated and wearing a mask during cold/flu season won't make that list.

Saying that Putin is a threat to all of us in Europe is obvious - well except to Farage & ReformUK.
The idea that America would be Europe’s guarantor of security, even our values, is now in tatters. The people in charge of USA right now, have more in common with Putin’s values.

I am not going to dive into the back and forth on piracy. I have a side, you can guess what it is.

But I will say one thing: if you get the books from your library, you're still not paying for it and the author does get compensated.

If he can’t afford books, he can just go to the library like normal people. Then he gets a “free” book to read and the author gets paid and increases their demand at the library- potentially encouraging the library to order additional copies. Wins all around.

Californians are buying ice scrapers at Home Depot, then immediately returning them....bogging down the entire store, until Home Depot refuses to allow ICE to loiter at their location to detain innocent people.

Winter is coming. Scrape ICE.

If every day all those who are trying to force Ukraine to sign a non-peace agreement — let’s be honest, a capitulation plan — if they saw how Russia bombs Ukraine, the consequences of these attacks, the destruction and human tragedies left after every night… 1/2

It should be noted that the CEO pictured only started the job this month. The previous CEO who served from 2016-2025, is now leading the Gladstone Ports Corporation. The new guy inherited a sh*t show.

Nearly a hundred million, and yet the population would have been happy with a security certificate and maybe some improved mobile-first approaches.

President Zelenskyy is thanking again other leaders for their support. How about we all thank him and all Ukrainians. They are fighting Putin and keeping us safe. If Putin wins we all lose and Europe is finished.

Thank you President Zelenskyy and all Ukrainians 🇺🇦🙏

One of the major downsides to webnovels, especially in niche genres like LitRPG, is that its hard to get it into fandom spaces because of just how extreme word of mouth has been limited in the modern internet.

Reading ‘Rising Kite’ a pleasant fanfic of He Who Fights With Monsters.

It isn’t a copy, it’s a genuine re-imagining in the Worlds of Jason Asano.

Not that anyone asked, but the country with the World's lowest life expectancy (Chad) has a higher life expectancy than the country with the highest life expectancy 120 yrs ago (Sweden).

Think Science and especially Medicine has somehow failed you? Think again.
