Foundation models will never again be trained on the fertile soil of the open web circa 2022. By polluting it with synthetic content, and undermining its supporting technical, social, and legal infrastructure, they are very quickly destroying the raw material on which they were trained.

My personal experience with online safety was my school installing strict internet controls to Protect The Kids™, so I joined a hacking forum to learn bypasses. The users also taught me how to import drugs via the dark web. Then I got arrested by the FBI for computer hacking. It was all very safe.

Once an internet joke, the revival of the Kalmar Union is now a semi serious topic written about in Swedish mainstream newspapers.
Including the Nordic bomb of course

Swedish summer dreams about recreating the Kalmar Union defensive alliance:
”Imagine a summer day: sausages sizzling on the grill, cream is being whipped for the strawberries, and ’Sommar i P1’ interviews crackle on the radio.”
”Then comes a push notification…” /1

Kan Norden försvara sig mot Ryssland?
Det nya världsläget får allt fler att prata om en nordisk allians. Skulle det vara en militärmakt att räkna med? Hur skulle den stå sig mot Ryssland? Och hur blir med bomben? SvD granskar den nordisk...

It's great that Bluesky offers custom algo feeds. For instance, this one looks interesting. It promises to prioritize posts from rare posters, but not sure how it works in detail:

If you know how software developers coordinate their work, the kind of “version control” lawyers rely on feels like a cruel joke. So why is there still no git for contracts? TL;DR: You can't just sail around Docx and UX, and going through, THERE BE DRAGONS! jordanbryan.substack.com/p/on-buildin...
On Building Git for Lawyers
Over this past weekend, Twitter discovered the problem that I have dedicated the past four years of my life to solving. Why don't lawyers and other non-coders use git?
