Silicon Valley boards are showing they won’t hold company leaders to account.
Instead they’re spending huge $ to buy influence for more deregulation, subsidies, tax cuts, and government contracts.
We’re paying for their harms, from wrecked kids to data centers to literal genocides.

I think the shortest version of why LLMs are an anti education technology is that education is fundamentally about making shared context to understand ourselves, each other, and the world
And by design LLMs destroy shared context

I remember when there was a discussion on Twitter about Shein's manufacturing practices and some apologists invented all sorts of fantastical machinery and technology to avoid facing the more horrifying truth. Reminds me of this comedian's joke.

A disgrace for 2025
The main part is now mostly gravel, buggies and wheelchairs will struggle to move on it
The many railings are clearly an afterthough, when they realised they need a load of badly designed ramps for acces
The seating also is too hard, cold and low

Fuck me!! The political journos are today bending over backwards in their post election analysis to convince us there's a massive conservative/right voice being silenced.
They didn't get 1 TD elected in the GE...
They got 5/949 local seats - 0.5% of seats available.

The only solution is to provide comprehensively for those needs - housing, healthcare, education, justice, elderly care, infrastructure, democracy, civil participation, inter alia - and in doing so remove the resentment that is so easily exploited by nefarious violent actors.

Ireland can talk about policing and social media and everything else today until it is blue in the face, but the cause of the riot at Citywest last night is essentially the same as every other riot in history - a failure to provide for the basic and fundamental needs of a large section of society.
