In a couple weeks, the government will release its first budget since the Finance Committee recommended ending charitable status for religious groups. Sign the petition to ensure the government follows through and modernizes our laws. www.bchumanist.ca/religion_cha...

Stop offloading cognitive tasks to "generative AI." Stop using systems w/ "AI" features either inextricably woven through them or prominently displayed at the top to nudge you into their use. Stop *Designing* "AI" tools & integrations that way. Stop building or using "AI" like this. Fucking Stop it.

It took me WAY too long to realize that this was about a pair of researchers at University of Houston (UH), and not that the headline was stalling to find a euphemism for what they REALLY are.

One of the best photos I’ve ever taken and it was with an iPhone, five years ago. In Louisville. I never figured out the story behind this. And sadly the building was torn down.
