As someone else pointed out here. "What you platform you amplify". We do not want to go down the same path as the UK.

Ed: we need a metaphor of Trump tearing down America.
Rep: How about the literal bulldozing of half the White House
Ed: bit on the nose will people go for that?
Rep: funny you should mention that …

This is a slide from a parody thing from 2016 that I used in a deck discussing AI (at least it didn't need you to login)

Irish TDs ”remembers” Margaret Thatcher Spitting Image sketch as anecdote about Charlie Haughey is something

I think training wheels as a kid is one thing. But these from the @theoatmeal.bsky.social on AI art is relevanr
People on Blinkist aren’t reading. They’re the Casio keyboard players

This particularly is a lesson for everyone

RIP Jane Goodall. Who I was vaguely aware of before the Gary Larson cartoon. Which the Jane Goodall institute took offence at but Jane herself loved. And ended up being used to fundraise for her.
She wrote the foreword for last Far Side collection
Only saw this week Larson visited her in Tanzania

This from the Ta-Nehisi Coates applies well beyond the US.
"I’m all for unifying, I’m all for bridging gaps, but not at the expense of my neighbour’s humanity. I just can’t."
We dodged a bullet with the Iona candidate because our friends and neighbour's humanity would have been up for debate.

Kids in life find some one who loves you the way the Irish Times loves Maria Steen.

Highlight of my week when I got back from a few days travel to open them. And the bonus badge felt like I'd unlocked a hidden level!! Glad the cash going to a good home

Even @mnemonic.bsky.social noted that its fine to call the alt-right Nazis because thats what they are. You adjust your priors when actual Nazis show up. This was a phrase coined in 1990 on Usenet when only a tiny fraction of even university people had email.

@gavreilly.com does this look right - I've 10 councils no candidate, 2 for Gareth Sheridan - are there any other votes re: #aras25 #áras25 that I've missed ?

we've had pigs in space before and I'd be happy for coddle to be fired into the sun

Turns out ChatGPTs notion of hate filled howls is people with substantive polemical depth and the exComedian doesn't even make that list. It may be shitting out averages but at least the averages its shitting out has some standards

Anyhoo Linehan is also a bad liar. Playing with different models gives you the first two results. Glinner not even a top 20. Do Screen only & he makes it to 9 (of 10). I guess a discussion of Sally Rooney & Lisa McGee doesn't suit the Gammon brained.

This story reminds me of the "Customer and the Chainsaw" (second screenshot). Essentially a bunch of technology was thrown at people it seems NO ONE GOT ANY TRAINING.
