#TheMachinist is a movie with a twist. But it couldn't give you a better feel for what losing touch with reality in #paranoidSchizophrenia can look like if it tried. Good #movie with a phenomenal performance by #ChristianBale.

"The promise of AI [...] is that there will be AIs that can do your job, and when your boss fires you and replaces you with AI, he will keep half of your salary for himself, and give the other half to the AI company. That's it."
— Cory Doctorow, The Reverse Centaur’s Guide to Criticizing AI

#SeymourCassel 's performance as Joe in #InTheSoup was stellar. Although not related to #psychiatry, his character perfectly illustrates what #hypomania can look like.
Imperfectly shot but clearly made with feelings so the editor made all the right calls. Great movie!

This is the article that convinced me of #Bluesky 's positive impact. I especially appreciate their resilient motto "the company is a future adversary". Such insight in the design phase makes me optimistic about the project.

Thank you @pydataparis.bsky.social for granting me a free scolarship! #PyDataParis was awesome and I learned a lot. 10/10 will recommend

Just finished season 1 of #Undone. I think it does an incredible job at showing #delusions in #schizophrenia and the importance of social support. It skillfully changes perspective from the patient to the closed ones at key moments. Great direction and editing. 10/10.

#Octopus brains are nature's #distributedsystems: 330M #neurons spread across 8 arms that operate autonomously while coordinating globally. Each arm processes locally (touch, taste, react) but complex #behaviors need central integration.

A good time to repost this banger from 'The Responsibility of Intellectuals' by Noam Chomsky in '67

Vance is absolutely correct: universities are - and must be - the enemy.

This is why the Right is attacking scholarship globally. They want to end the privilege Chomsky's talking about in 67
