I said the quiet thing out loud. Because someone had to. Don't use gen AI period. It isn't art..it's theft. But especially when you are the person responsible for hiring humans who may have lost their last job to gen AI. It's so tone deaf.

Look lady, if you’re arguing for a handful of parking spaces over protected bike lanes, you are in fact against safety, no matter how many times you object to that characterization.

hmm i may break with qbasic for this one and move to C+Allegro so i can enjoy higher resolution and 3d characters

i’ve been making stuff online for a real long time and the #1 thing you learn is that since the dawn of the internet, fuckheads will never ever not complain or nitpick about the free content you provide for them

The children are SUPPOSED to have a better life than you. That’s the point.

I love reposting art posts. It's like putting someone's artwork on a digital refrigerator and making sure all your guests see it. Did you see my refrigerator? Did you see this beautiful art? Don't you want to follow my friend and put their art on your refrigerator, too?

Here's what TikTok has been doing to our work & art without our consent.

continvoucly morged diagram was blatantly Microsoft stealing and using AI to launder credit for the identical handmade diagram from 2010 by Vincent Driessen because, let it be said again, it's all stealing and lies I feel fury like the crashing of a THOUSAND waves original nvie.com/posts/a-succ...

World Without Exploitation is a coalition of nonprofits, including many “sex trafficking awareness” orgs that are also anti-sex work. The movement to #standwithsurvivors cannot lead to meaningful change without also supporting sex workers’ labor rights. Solidarity is everything. #decrimnow

Wer sich im Internet Antifaschistisch betätigt müsste mit Klarnamenszwang dann rechnen das die Nazis zum Hausbesuch vorbei kommen. So wie damals bei Walter Lübcke. Engagement für die Demokratie wäre dann Plötzlich lebensgefährlich.

If your game isnt worth enough to you to pay an artist to make a promotional image, or for you to even scribble a mspaint placeholder, then it isn't worth enough for me to buy. On god this kinda thing makes me turn a buy to a bye #MIGHTREYA

I see comments that I disagree with every hour & every day here on Bluesky, from people I generally agree with. I’m perfectly ok with supporting people I mostly agree a lot with, against people I overwhelmingly disagree with. We don’t have to agree on everything to work together against common foes.

Wow.

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers. If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of: fund.godotengine.org

Yes! What if we treated extremely normal human variation as something other than a "disorder"??? www.positive.news/society/yout...

It’s so funny to think about the fact that there’s people out there deferring every life decision to this

Bundesinnenminister Dobrindt verhindert Integration. Es ist zynisch, dass die Union mangelnde Integration kritisiert, gleichzeitig den Menschen die Chancen dafür entzieht. Der Erwerb von Sprachkenntnissen ist Schlüssel zur Teilhabe am Arbeitsmarkt und zum Miteinander. www.stern.de/news/gestopp...

Heute Sprachkurse kürzen. Morgen wieder Menschen als faul beschimpfen. Mohammeds Ziel ist es, Kranken- oder Altenpfleger zu werden. Dafür braucht er ein Sprachzertifikat, B2 oder C1. Das wird jetzt gestrichen. CDU-Politik in a nutshell. www.tagesschau.de/inland/innen...

Klein: People are afraid to come into clinics or hospitals because they’re afraid they’ll be snatched. So they’re staying home with acute conditions like appendicitis. They’re not going to their follow-up neonatal appointments. They’re allowing their jaundiced babies to go untreated.

On two occasions a Dollar General worker drank a $1.69 orange juice to stave off diabetic shock. She later paid for each drink. Dollar General fired her anyway. Now a jury has awarded her $277,565. www.cnn.com/2016/09/30/u...

He's made an entirely rational use of his platform. Russia's constant killing of Ukrainian athletes, and Ukrainian civilians in general, was not being talked about, and now it is. And that's more important than sport.

WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. Safe bike-lanes mean business.

If you walk away from a unfinished project but left with a little more experience and learnt something to take with your next project it did its job perfectly, and if that was fun then that truly is the goal.

Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".

Absolutely love these girls 🥰 Query and Luster Comm artwork

agreed, there are in fact plenty of cases where associational algorithms / classifiers / ML can be useful - but they are almost all in specific domains, with structured data, providing a particular utility. And without the assumption that they know things

i feel compelled to remind everyone that chatgpt/LLMs are functionally the *opposite* of an actual expert. the more your problems are unusual or novel, the more likely LLMS are to be wrong. they are least helpful when it's most important
