Tweet so good I printed it out and put it on my wall. I referred to it in a conference talk today @hypervisible.blacksky.app

Never let anyone convince you that technology is just whatever one of the platform surveillance machines want to sell you. Technology doesn’t belong to them

excessive technophilia is how you become a hypercapitalist neoreactionary type and excessive technophobia is how you become an anti-vaxxer neo trad nationalist type so be careful folks

Thrilled to find out today that The AI Mirror has earned out its advance, and is still going strong. Traveling to Japan next month just in time to hopefully see this on some Tokyo bookshelves. Wild cover…my first time seeing the design!

Did not even last a week. The fact that this made it out the door means the privacy department now works in a basement with no computers and a single stapler. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/10/t...

Congratulations to Dr. Bhargavi Ganesh, my truly brilliant PhD student in Informatics who I have been immensely lucky to work with @technomoralfutures.bsky.social - so proud to be able to share this moment with you! @bhargaviganesh.bsky.social

WE'RE FLYING TOO CLOSE TO THE SUN

oh my god they literally took notes on their criminal conspiracy

There’s such a tendency for people to say “oh it’s always been that bad” to people who are vastly more informed and are saying things have changed. It’s like pointing to the smoldering ashes of a city and being informed that buildings have always caught fire

Uh are they supposed to just come up to your window like a drive thru

if not friend why friend shaped

CEO Reveals How He Used AI To Build One-Person Company That's $1.3 Billion In Debt

Our dog has decided that our neighbors house is also her house, and their dogs are also her pack, and when they’re all trying to enjoy their garden in peace she’ll just bark at the fence until they invite her over (they love her so it’s ok for now but she is absolutely going to wear out her welcome)

Satire doesn't work by being funny in itself, it works by making its targets funny.

I don’t know how to explain to my American family and friends that this is now the man entrusted with the UK’s political salvation from fascism. For clarity, I am referring to the man on the left with a bin for a face, not the incoming prime minister on the right.

A place called Kokopelli in Boston in the 90s had a giant make-your-own nachos bar and that was just a starter, for entrees the menu offered *all* the chilis. I mean it, any regional American chili - New Mexican red or green, Texan, Cincinnati, Kansas City, meat or veg, go nuts. I still dream of it

Worth noting: 8 out of 11 members of the Women and Equalities Select Committee have signed the motion to reject the EHRC guidance and fix it.

"Islamic Republic of Japan" implies one of the greatest fusion cuisines in human history.

Even viewed from an entirely mercenary perspective, (which is reductive) this doesn’t make financial sense. The creative sector in the UK is incredibly successful and one of the few successful industries for global exports, so why stop people training and joining it?

Ok I figured out who needs to hear this

Just invented a new kind of stilts that make you shorter. "I don't understand," say our happy customers, "This doesn't make any sense"

Quick one Bridget, what's two areas in which Britain punches above its weight globally? Arts and Higher education, is it? Ah well, fuck 'em.

having one of those days where you think you are sailing the grimdark bullshit seas with great equanimity and fortitude and then you read one more asshat comment on the Internet and

At a time when organisations say that what they desperately need isn't more coders or exam takers but young people with critical thinking and independent reasoning skills, it's a profound injury to the future to allow the closure of Philosophy programmes across the UK and US, including Dundee's.

Nothing sweeter than waking up to find that Belgium kicked the USA’s ass. I feel bad for US players who had their final game tainted, I’m sure most would have preferred to play without a giant, swollen, sweaty, bruised thumb on the scales

leftist populist men 29 days later: why did those terrible women fail to get us to listen

After decades of screeching that universities are indoctrinating the youth, Republicans are proud to roll out the new course, Mandatory Youth Indoctrination 1001

If I were the King of Universities (which, heaven forbid), I would place this finding at the exact centre of every single policy decision from teaching to research to estates to capital investment. At every level in every process, the question would be: are we as humane as education demands we be?

This is NOT what the FIFA World Cup is about. The FIFA World Cup is about *opens history book* uh oh *Frantically starts flipping though pages* uh oh. oh no. no no no. uh oh

Google DeepMind continues to treat their employees' profound moral concerns, which the company once pledged to honor, as an HR problem to be swept aside rather than a crisis for its future.

This is a beautiful read even if you haven’t read Piranesi. But all the more if you have.

AI detectors have always been an absolute scam as far as I can tell, and I’m alarmed at how many people believe they work

futurism.com/future-socie... lol

This might be the most blatant example in existence of "rich guy who created a problem attempting to place the blame for that problem on immigrants"

For All Mankind S4 dragged just a bit in the middle but glad they stuck the landing; loved the teaser for the final season

As a new UK citizen, I think about the pieces on corruption that could have prevented our full-scale American calamity but didn’t. So many pundits and media just framed it as normal politics, mere grounds for ‘controversy’ rather than outrage. Praying that we can look across the water and wake up.

An absolute banger of an exclusive from the Sunday Times. It's devastating. For the first time, I'm uncertain if Farage can actually survive this www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

"The findings raise questions about one of the most-hyped UK AI developments, and suggest a centrepiece of US-UK AI cooperation was in fact little more than a press release"... When hype meets reality case number too many to count... www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Your regular reminder that cryptocurrency does in fact have a use case and that use case is crime

Never forget that most of the rage and fear we are swimming in was deliberately manufactured to control us

How did I just find out TODAY that the creator of Widow’s Bay is the Babadook Halloween tbt legend

People who spiral out overusing LLM chatbots are really just experiencing the kind of brain-damaging stream of unconditional validation that’s always been the norm for the hyper-wealthy, which explains a lot.

this could not be less surprising

this thread is a work of art; it has everything

all of the world’s richest villains look like they are rotting from the inside and got their clothes out of a trash bag in a storage unit last opened in 1983

"The Pope is the puppet of the Chinese authoritatian government" is a take you would make if you made billions by drinking paint.

So, now CNN reporting it but not a single mention on the BBC site; seems like 230K unnecessarily dead people in the UK might be worth doing a journalism
