Amai hier ligt meer dan 20 centimeter sneeuw

one problem with learning is it will make you so angry at how stupid everything is

In my opinion - this should be a much bigger story and regulators and AI firms worldwide should be much more engaged. If there’s no lines *at all* with GenAI, there will be harm. Orgs and regulators can’t talk big about AI safety in public and then say nothing when this unfolds.

other reporters in the room thought this was a mean thing to ask

my most-shared comic of 2025. i felt like this one awakened something new in the discourse

Lol: “Imagine calling yourselves the ‘master race’ but forgetting to secure your own website — maybe try mastering to host WordPress before world domination,” Root wrote."

Indrukwekkende productiviteitswinsten door een inherent deterministisch proces (het uitvoeren van een betaling) te laten uitvoeren door een zak stochastiek? Echt, stop met (LLM-based) AI te zien als een magische doos voor automatisatie.

It is incredibly embarrassing for this continent that Sanchez has to join a group of Latin American leaders in issuing a statement of condemnation for the US invasion, because no other leader in Europe will join him in criticising 🇺🇸.

*staring into THE RECTANGLE OF MISERY* oh man this fucking sucks, i better keep staring at this thing or i'll miss the good part

Kill the algorithm in your head: Let's set up RSS readers and get news we actually want in 2026

There are many things to love about Rami’s top 10 for 2025 but this is one of my favourites.

This is a thread of major media outlets falsely anthropomorphising the "Grok" chatbot program and in doing so, actively and directly removing responsibility and accountability from individual people working at X who created a child pornography generator (Elon Musk, Nikita Bier etc) #1: Reuters

grok didn't say shit. Grok is not sentient. This is you helping musk escape accountability for this shit. Journalism fail.

Nu Grok op X zonder problemen vrouwen en kinderen uitkleedt (As a fucking _feature_, btw): ik zou echt twee keer nadenken voor ik nog foto's van mijn kinderen of mezelf online plaats.

Sry for the New Year's flex but sex with me was recently described as "like hearing Bach played on a broken accordion."

just so it's clear: this is the exact core function of genAI Fascist government and climate deniers love it because it can produce the aesthetics of knowledge without any actual tendency towards truth. It is automated denialism. Shame on every climate scientist promoting its use (there are lots)

Had er mij maar iemand gewaarschuwd dat het tijd was voor PEPPOL

happy new year to all my extremely online friends

i could have sworn it was called the mandela affect

RIP to such a funny person we bring this one up all the time

lol man it feels weird learning a guy just died and spending the next hour laughing

Beat my niece at Mario Kart so she started crying? Fool. I contain wells of grief so deep not even the Gods can see the bottom. This is just another contest you're going to lose.

Te weinig kleppers gezien van films dit jaar (ik loop achter en moet gedoodverfde favoriet One Battle After Another bijvoorbeeld nog bekijken), maar Sinners vond ik enorm entertainend.

Eindejaarslijstje, no particular order: Games: Death Stranding 2 Mafia: The Old Country Keeper The Alters Avowed Battlefield 6 Doom: The Dark Ages Ball x Pit

This might sound harsh, and judgmental, but if video is your preferred way of getting information about a topic, you’re a fucking moron
