Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

Hello. Here’s a holiday cake for you. My wife is a professional recipe writer and is currently out of work and I’m trying to persuade her that her recipes are amazing. And there’s no bullshit narrative. Just recipes that work.

I’ve never met an autistic person whose “behaviour” wasn’t completely logical once you understood their needs, their history, and their nervous system.
We’re not confusing.

Just wanted to post another reminder to consider getting a booster if you were born before 1990. Two doses weren't recommended before 1990, so you might want to check your records, or get a titer test, or get an MMR booster. In many states, pharmacists can administer vaccines on their own authority.
If community spread of measles continues until Jan 20th, the US will join Canada in losing its measles elimination status.
This is what happens when “you do you” individualism takes the place of public health.
Measles is disabling and deadly but it’s also preventable.
Get your vaccines

Measles outbreak in Arizona and Utah could spell the end for U.S. elimination status
With holiday travel and gatherings approaching, doctors worry that transmission could escalate further.

Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance. Trans people have literally always been here; every time I see someone sneering "oh but there were no trans people when I was in high school," well. I dated a trans girl in high school, and was close friends with a trans guy.
