Oh, man. After reading the article, what it actually says is that an historian did a lot of archival work and spatial research to determine the site of a killing and then the family of the likely perpetrator stepped forward with photographs to confirm identity. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Norske medier skriver ikke så mye om Sudan, men vi skriver en hel del om hvorfor vi ikke skriver om Sudan. Det påstås det er vanskelig, men stemmer det? Her er noen tips til bedre dekning av det som er verdens største humanitære krise akkurat nå. open.substack.com/pub/maren930...

“I want AI to do my laundry and dishes so that I can do art and writing,” as the from SF author Joanna Maciejewska memorably put it, “not for AI to do my art and writing so that I can do my laundry and dishes.” These stories show what happens when it’s the other way around."

They had kids, too.

If it isn't ChatGPT, it's Claude or Copilot or Gemini that they're trying to shoehorn into higher education. Nobody involved in actually educating students asked for this, and it does a disservice to everyone involved in the actual educational process — students, teaching assistants, & instructors.

Dette er ikke så viktig i det store bildet, men sånne småting irriterer meg: Aftenpostens USA-korrespondent presterer først å si at "En footlong er en... sandwich hos kjeden Subway." Men en "footlong" er jo bare en lang sandwich, den må ikke være fra Subway www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/e...

It is here. McCarthyism 2.0. Wrongthink now gets you on a list that is openly trying to liaison with the government (which has already said it will be doing similar work in the weeks to come). The list referenced below now exceeds 100,000 people. People on the list are already getting death threats.

I hadn’t seen this. Kirk, the moderate free speech guy who did politics the right way per some liberals (!), called for Biden to be executed. Meanwhile Joe Biden put out a very strong statement condemning Kirk’s killing. Both sides!

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

If we transported 2025 Charlie Kirk back to 2012 he would have been widely considered the most vile and contemptible human being in politics, worse even than Limbaugh. That he wasn't in 2025 is a testament to how much of a permission structure for gutter racism the right has built.

Kirk didn’t debate out of some spirit of democracy or whatever. He did it to expand the Overton window, so that the humanity of marginalized groups could be seen as being up for debate. His “change my mind” schtick was a sham: he was never, ever willing to change his mind.

Eg synest me må ta Listhaug på alvor. Over heile vesten dominerar pengemakta politikken. Folk flokkar seg om politikarar som aldri vil levere ei einaste god løysing for dei. Ver vaken ellers er det du som må betale for politikjen deira.

Hei yrke! Er åpent for ny jobb ila høsten. På utkikk der hvor jeg kan bruke mine ferdigheter som designer/motion graphics, filmfotograf/grading/vfx, koder, AI, konseptutvikler, tech, UU/UX m.fl. Går i disse dagene under stillingstittelen som Creative Generalist 😎 Avtal gjerne over en kopp kakao 👋🏼

“Does refusing to hire a Holocaust denier as a member of Harvard’s history department faculty count as an ideological limit test?” Takano asked. Replying, McMahon said: “I believe that there should be diversity of viewpoints relative to teachings and opinions on campuses.” CC: ADL, Elise Stefanik

Ukrainas regjering ber vår om støtte for å lage TV-prosjekt med oss i Folkeopplysningen, for å styrke kritisk tenking og bekjempe desinformasjon. Vi i Teddy bidrar veldig gjerne, håper norske politikere ser at dette er verdt å gjøre! www.dagbladet.no/nyheter/vil-...

Legalisering av ståmopeder var en skikkelig, skikkelig dårlig idé. www.nrk.no/rogaland/12-...

Ikke meg som bare casually har startet krig med Rema 1000. Jeg klaga inn butikken som brukte en HC plass som varelager og fikk mail fra Rema sentralt at de skulle ta det opp med kjøpmannen. Han svarte slik:

Dette er temmelig respektløs oppførsel. Vi kan alle gjøre feil, men å få påspandert flyturer, hotell og cruise uten å stille opp og uten å si ifra er spesielt. www.aftenposten.no/norge/politi...

#SouthSudan: The bombing of Doctors Without Borders' hospital in Old Fangak, the only functional medical facility in Fangak county, has left over 100,000 people with no access to medical care. The consequences of this closure will be immense.

Skulle ønske disse ståmopedene var forbudt, men når vi dessverre har dem, kan ikke folk parkere dem inn mot en vegg eller noe sånt?? Har også nesten blitt påkjørt to ganger denne uken. Oslo sentrum er mindre trygt og mer utilgjengelig pga. disse mopedene.

A generation of infants are being born HIV+ today who should have been born HIV-free because one of the principal propagandists of AI bullshit in the world dismantled PEPFAR and USAID.

#USA: the decision to end support for Gavi puts millions of children’s lives at risk. It's estimated that more than 1.2 million children may die as a result of this political decision. www.doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/us-de...

Funding cuts mean essential and lifesaving healthcare services and vaccinations, among other critical health issues, have shut down, leaving thousands without treatment worldwide. This isn’t just a policy change - it’s a death sentence. www.msf.org.za/news-and-res...

This made for a shocking watch... I'm speechless. Insults after insults, stroking his own ego, "Obama gave you sheets, I gave you javelins", "You did not once say thank you", "You're losing". youtu.be/MEv9WLPoa3I?...

The Trump administration terminates funding for polio, HIV, malaria and nutrition programs around the world. “People will die,” said Dr. Catherine Kyobutungi of the African Population and Health Research Center, “but we will never know, because even the programs to count the dead are cut.”

Every opinion piece in the Washington Post must now follow Bezos' new rightwing guidelines. Writers can say that they would have written the same thing anyway, but the fact remains: Their piece was only published because it met his new rightwing guidelines. Support independent, pro-democracy media.

The Trump admin is causing chaos in transport research. Studies have been canceled, datasets have vanished, and experts have been fired. The Nat'l Academies’ Transportation Research Board has caved to Trump’s demands for censorship, triggering upheaval. Its future is in doubt. From me (w/scoops) 🧵

Kall meg irrasjonell, men jeg blir faktisk fly forbanna når Sylvi Listhaug sier "politikere skal føle seg trygge i det offentlige rom". Det var hennes parti, hennes politikere og hun selv som egget fram voldsomme hat-kampanjer mot MDG og spesielt Lan Marie Berg høsten 2015 og årene etter.

#UK: While MSF does not receive UK Government funding, we are deeply concerned about the far-reaching impact of repeated and sustained aid reductions. Countries affected by conflict, natural disasters, and disease outbreaks where we operate will suffer immensely.

When I hear men worshipping guns and talking about how there’s nothing that will stop them from defending their family, my mind goes to Naaman in the Bible. Do you remember Naaman? He was a great military leader, and he also had leprosy. 1/

It's a goal of mine to help make this the most famous, well-known and UNDERSTOOD quote about cities in history. Please share it as much as you can. #InducedDemand

#Bluesky: We provide medical assistance to people affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters or exclusion from healthcare. Independent. Neutral. Impartial. Thank you for sharing and following our account.

The last time I had full access to #Wired was when I had a boyfriend from the US - but their current investigative reporting now makes it more than worth it to subscribe. A full year is only US$10!!

OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product. On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

Advarsel: A-Magasinet inneholder denne uken en sak om lastebilsjåføren som drepte en syklist på St. Hanshaugen i April 2022. Jeg ble uvel av ansvarsfraskrivelsene. Tenker dette var den viktigste biten å lese:

I can't stop thinking about the group of ASL interpreters from across the country who were flown in to DC last weekend to interpret Inauguration events, only to have their contracts canceled at the last minute.

Astonishingly, BBC News have somehow managed to make the passive car voice so extreme in this piece, it almost suggests the vehicle was the victim, and not the two children who are now in a serious condition in hospital www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Second time in my life my birthday is tainted by a Trump inauguration. Not important in the grand scheme of things, but kind of pissed about it anyway!

Journalister i Oslo kunne med hell fulgt en syklist, en fotgjenger, en rullestolbruker og en barnevogn-triller en dag på vinteren etter ett snøfall. Både kort tid etter, og noen uker etter.
