I've tried to keep quiet about this angle per the simpsons observation that you don't win friends with salad, but yeah been vegan 23 years and seeing people who defend factory farming for flavor and tradition wondering if their teddy ruxpin can suffer and needs ethics consideration sure is something

at the very least he can leave them alone and let them become law without his signature

to be clear: he can still sign the other bills and he should call his office now

We wondered what THAT building specifically & I think we know exactly why, now.

There's definitely something to the idea that sports gambling and gacha games and LLM usage are connected, all preying on the same quirk of human psychology

An early advent calendar in hard mode! Nice work

"If [Israel] is treating Greta Thunberg this way, imagine how they are treating [Palestinian] women and children."

Question asked of junior devs: "How exactly do you plan to vibe code your way to senior level?" #aifraud

My new $261 billion facility will turn lead into gold, shame about that farmland and water and climate change but it will be worth it in the end, trust me

I am once again asking why these data centers are all fucking SECRETS "A controversial plan to build a 2.2-million-square-foot data center on farmland may still happen. A rural community... is looking to settle a lawsuit recently filed by a development firm working for an unidentified tech giant."

Every post about 'ai' coding 'assistants' is like 'yeah it's a huge time waster but this one time it worked,' This is definitely gambling adjacent, and also maybe 'lizard corner' effect #aifraud

Damn. This is potentially on par with the guy who discovered his therapist was using AI to counsel him. What a shit thing to do.

Wow, Kessler productiontype.com/font/kessler Fans of Linotype Pilgrim (the real one, not me) will like this #typography

Like I'm sorry, but the AI weirdos have DELIBERATELY created this confusion 100% so they can capitalize on the assumptions people who don't understand the difference will make. This was the endgame of all the AI bros! no one knowing the difference! Sorry they created this mess BUT THEY DID!

Really need people to understand what Ford is

And of course BlueSky has deleted Samaa’s account again. Her internet is too weak right now for her to create another one, so she asked me to share and let yall know. @mommunism.bsky.social @lexialex.bsky.social gofund.me/db56c7ce3

A someone who has written extensively about the eugenic roots that permeates those who claim to be building so-called artificial general intelligence, I'm here to tell you to please NOT compare criticism against corporations claiming to build a machine god, with eugenics. The audacity.

Let's see what we learn from this case of "Big corporation buys up important open source infrastructure because it's organized as a company". #arduino

Listen. If you didn't want to be seen as the Twitter escape pod, you shouldn't have deliberately fostered a community of people so united by their contempt for arbitrary authority and love of absolute free speech that they were willing to abandon a platform they'd been using for 15 years

I live right by Court Street and the bike lane has made a huge difference — the street is so much calmer and safer. It's going to be a thing of beauty when it's finished Took Doug's suggestion and emailed the community board. Took two minutes. If you live in Brooklyn consider doing the same!

“finish adding a feature” we literally all thought was there from the get go. “finish adding a feature” when jay yelled at all of us to shut the fuck up and federate if we wanted change. unbelievable

Capitalist media has created a political discourse where Team Racist and Team Capitalist get to lie.

Post secondary education teaches people to critically think in a way that is very difficult to self-teach.

This should be an unremarkable streetscape found in nearly every decent sized city across the country.

If we can’t defend the most targeted and marginalized population of this country then we have no chance of turning the page on this hellscape. There’s no moderating on the issue of letting people live their goddamn lives in peace

Gaza is facing its darkest phase: starvation, isolation, and relentless attacks. Families are losing everything, children are at extreme risk, and aid is blocked. We cannot look away. Yousef Aljamal reports from July of this year.

google wants to introduce errors into my spreadsheets and attribute them to me

Carney is celebrating how Trump has transformed the US and the world. Can we please stop acting like Mark Carney isn't a fucking fascist?

hmmmmmmm #ukpol

Gerald Sussman at Strange Loop in 2011 introduces "The Propagator Idea - Independent Stateless Machines connecting Stateful Cells". Worthwhile and a #mustwatch. "I hate computer languages now! Almost all of them, including the ones I invent." youtu.be/HB5TrK7A4pI #computerscience #lisp #scheme

also, this isn't the point, but how the fuck do you make a ready to eat waffle look ugly and unappetising in a photo

I don't want Carney to protest because Canadians are being rounded up. I want him to protest because not a single person except for the wealthy is safe in USA regardless of immigration status or nationality and he should, if he had a shred of morality, be outraged, and fighting fascism. #cdnpoli

Ah, $150 billion _per year_ And Carney is saying they'll fund this by digging up and selling METALS? Yeah? Where? On whose land? Have we looked at the environmental impact of that? emissions? Of a country that's been scaling up extraction and emissions for decades? #cdnpoli

Canada, under Carney, is fast tracking the same trajectory. bsky.app/profile/bhag...

It's smoke and mirrors and Carney is a willing partner with the US and all the shitbirds who run it

And one last thing, does this AI moderation tool retain data when it evaluates images posted on Bluesky? If so, I think that's a major issue that needs to be addressed asap because artists on here do not consent to our work being used for training machines.

So Links ban due to an image that had been up for 5 days, had no input from you guys? The ai was just out getting coffee for 96 hours?

This shit just keeps getting worse.

Turns out “elbows up” just meant smiling and waving with the fascist U.S. president

Please help Sakher!

Children in Gaza don’t dream anymore. They wake up to flames, they fall asleep hungry, and they learn the meaning of loss too soon. My family carries these wounds too. Your compassion can bring us a small piece of hope. 🙏🏻💔 gofund.me/f978127f9

Seems like a good day to help someone in Gaza

Thank you for supporting my first game. I will probably be mapping out the next steps soon but in general, there will be more exploration. My wish list includes an interactive map and inventory system. soniasulaiman.itch.io/thursday-of-...
