AP News:

Responding to the use of her song “Juno” in a video montage depicting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids, Sabrina Carpenter tweeted Tuesday: “this video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”

Every time you see someone publish a "think piece" with the phrase: "the question is no longer…but rather…"

that is a *dead giveaway* they are trying to distract you from what is *absolutely* the question.

Don't fall for it! 😂

As Karoline Leavitt continues to bluster and blunder her way through increasingly uncomfortable press spotlight on the Trump Admin's war crimes, worth recalling the President's opinion of her:

"It's that face, it's that brain, it's those lips—the way they move, they move like she's a machine gun."

I wrote on LinkedIn that you can be a UX designer or you can work on GenAI products which promote the dangerous proliferation of LLMs but you cannot be both, and oh boy did I get some feedback. 😂

One response was literally in the category of "well if we don't do it, who will?"

Ah yes, that […]

Rather grim over on the ol' LinkedIn feed today. The level of capitulation from some quarters that the slop machines are all here to stay so deal with it is simply absurd.

I think certain folks would be genuinely shocked to hear what my Core Beliefs are. What I would legislate given the chance […]

Here's my spicy headline of the day:

“Three Years of ChatGPT: How it has changed absolutely nothing because there’s no good reason you need to use it.”

(Seriously. I have never used it. And I never will.)

“You can't put the genie back in the bottle,” said the tobacco executive as he took a long draw on a cig and guffawed at the latest news headline that yet another bleeding-heart liberal was proposing to ban smoking in all indoor public spaces.

Even more insidious: LLM editing & "vibe coding" is itself gatekeeping! 100%!

It's telling people they're too weak-minded to learn how to program and accomplish meaningful work using their own brains, so they need Big Tech to (expensively) do it for them! In addition, it means Fancy Clever 10X […]

“Everything that can be automated should be automated”

is a statement you *can* and *should* push back on extremely hard any time it ever comes up.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang screwed up.

He said the quiet part out loud.

He inadvertently revealed the total game plan, pulled back the curtain on Silicon Valley’s Big Lie.

And now that this supervillain mask-off moment has arrived, we can see clearly what the end game is:

Digital Slavery. And […]

I was today years old when I discovered that you can browse #mastodon via @MonaApp using a…get this…

Wow.

To my American friends, Happy Thanksgiving folks!

I'm thankful for… #fedora #gnome #linux running on my Mac mini M1 for the very first time! 😁

(more on that in the near future 😏)

But really, yes, I'm thankful for a great many other things as well. Have a great evening y'all

This is how you do it people. I feel like I could have written this article, as it is extremely detailed as to all of the valid reasons why they would want to ban such content from being associated with Nature.

Saw this in an article:

Huh?!

We already have a clean energy source. It’s called the sun. We already know how to […]

This is a very important new (to me) framing:

The structure of modern society requires a financial “cost of participation” which includes a huge transportation cost because of car-dependent design of US communities.

Taken another way, you are paying a mandatory tax to car/petro companies every […]

This is a very nice just-so story which sounds comforting but explains nothing.

People had *every right* to be wary of the new technology called “photography” — and the irony is THIS IS STILL TRUE!

Please let’s not ignore past & present harms of older technologies to justify the harms of newer […]
