Far too many times, men only bring up being #ActuallyAutistic as an excuse for mistreating women. That's a bullshit excuse and it does nothing but spread more stigma around autism. Grateful for @aislingwalsh.bsky.social's piece.

Fascinating. Microsoft emailed me to say it was raising the price of Microsoft 365, but when i went to cancel it offered me me the old price — without all the AI bullshit.
It’s forcing AI on everyone and making them pay more for it, then only telling them they don’t have to if they try to cancel.

Population:

Under the UCP we have more measles cases than a population 70x larger than ours.
And the blame rests squarely at the feet of the UCP - a gov’t that’s throughly & deliberately undermined our public health system.

Alberta has now reported more cases than the ENTIRE United States. This measles outbreak was preventable, but the UCP chose not to prevent it.
Danielle Smith is ignoring health experts and putting our lives at risk to fuel her separatist drama.

💡 Economic analysis in the study: Ontario’s COVID-19 vaccine program cost ~$30B—but saved ~$31B in ICU costs alone. A powerful case for the health and economic value of vaccination.

Meredith has always been a G, but it's still exceptionally weird and very refreshing hearing from a tech exec who can see through all of this AI bullshit for what it is at its foundation: a backdoor surveillance tool.
Worth a watch:
Head of Signal, Meredith Whittaker, on so-called "agentic AI" and the difference between how it's described in the marketing and what access and control it would actually require to work as advertised.

Alberta is not a populous province. Having over 1,000 measles cases indicates significant community spread.
