The 2011 BBC show 'Romancing the stone' showed a reconstruction of what historians thought Wells Cathedral in England may have looked like before the late 14th century based on tiny fragments of paint that survived the horrific "scrape" of the Victorian era.

Proposal: instead of giving ChatGPT tens of billions of dollars to fail to create artificial intelligence, give me, an Actual Intelligence, a mere $10 million and I will gladly do a spreadsheet wrong for you from time to time for a modest fee.

Watching all these centrist pundits stress the “civility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.

The mental health benefits of not knowing any history right now must be massive. Moving through your day with total equanimity. What happens next? Who knows? Maybe something good

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
It costs a lot less to house people.

I know only so many people care about New York City, and I respect that. But I want people to know that this potatohead goober owns the consensus Worst Grocery Store Chain, for price and for quality, in a city with some truly heinous grocery stores.

"Will Mamdani run the supermarkets with union help? When people start shoplifting, will he even have cops arrest them," Catsimatidis pondered.

I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles
Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

I don't think I've ever felt more like burning it all down than I have while witnessing the elite project to turn Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander into scary, incompetent monsters while turning an actual incompetent monster, Andrew Cuomo, into a merely complicated fellow who just made an oopsie.

Absolutely surreal to have lived through the Napster days and watched as the titans of industry moved hell and high water to lock down any possible chance that someone's song might get swapped online without giving the studios a cut and now those same people are just like "well we gotta steal music"
Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

in 2008, I had nothing. so when everybody lost everything it was hard for me to watch with anything other than morbid curiosity. now I have something, but my something is much closer to nothing than everything, so it's still mostly morbid curiosity with a light seasoning of existential dread

Not being able to differentiate between a feeling you have inside and a person DOING something to you is a long-standing, often ignored, addressable problem. How much could change if it wasn’t typical to experience new information as a hostile confrontation when it makes you uncomfortable?
