David Lynch passed a year ago today. I hope we all can absorb just a little bit of the energy he put out in his lifetime.

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

Important news regarding our use of Twitter: Owing to the current circumstances, we have taken the decision to stop using our Twitter account. We cannot in good conscience continue to use a platform which is linked to image-based sexual harassment and violence, and AI-generated CSAM.

Anything short of a wholehearted "fuck literally all of this, we are going to go Nuremburg on these freaks and then drain Elon dry to fund fixing this stuff" will lose, badly.

And there's like zero chance the dems will even think to say that.

every fucker saying how much more powerful Claude is now is allergic to measurable numbers. they will literally give you graphs of vibes.

what are the measurable results, fucker. do the METR study but up to date if you don't want to accept it saying how you suck.
"The tools are getting better!" is a constant drumbeat in AI circles. They say, Claude is 1000x more powerful now. But practically what does that mean? It means nothing. The "insights" are just as fake as they were five years ago.

People in our industry saying AI is inevitable or will revolutionize xyz:

You need to back those statements up. Research is saying otherwise and if you can't show anything that disproves said research your opinion is just wishful or fatalistic thinking.

Trust me bro/vibes don't count. Data does.

ICE shot a woman point-blank in Minneapolis. The agency’s raids and impunity were always going to lead to death.

the METR study is gonna go round again because Fortune *just* posted a fresh writeup of it yesterday, based on their own article from July last year

fortune.com/article/does...

every time you see an AI guy dismiss it as insufficient, ask them where the better studies are. (there aren't any.)
Experienced software developers assumed AI would save them a chunk of time. But in one experiment, their tasks took 20% longer | Fortune
As more workers use AI, a recent study adds to growing evidence the tech doesn’t always deliver on promises of boosted productivity.

I'm no longer shocked by how we ended up with leaded petrol, radium blankets, asbestos, cigarettes, climate change denial etc. When ppl before my very eyes are so eager for a product sold to them as a pie in the sky miracle but whose actual main uses are labour theft and (C)SAM fabrication.
