Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

eu odeio o Gov.br. um risco de segurança gigantesco, uma invasão de privacidade maior ainda e uma ferramenta de controle totalitário só esperando a administração correta pra abusar dele. tudo isso, claro, em algo essencialmente inevitável para ser um cidadão brasileiro.

In looking for examples of people calling the Web dead, I learned that, apparently, you can say the Web is dying for 30 years and get away with it. https://feed.tedium.co/link/15204/17193390/web-dead-predictions-george-colony

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

My mom and stepdad are from the same diaspora group as Zohran Mamdani’s dad (same like “my stepdad was kicked out of the same town and knows some of his classmates”) and apparently the New York Times doesn’t understand how diaspora works, so I am going to tell you a little about my mom’s people!

like a lot of data/ML projects, I think the intentions here were good (or at least neutral), but the ML world often has a tendency toward a) the "finders keepers" attitude when it comes to online content, and b) a habit of moving fast first and considering repercussions later

ok one more "how we do it on bluesky" re: "block, don't engage." it's not that anybody wants to tell you what to do -- it's that we collectively realized that this is what works. it works really great! zero, zero response needed. just block! don't argue at all with dickheads! try it! you'll see.
