I don't post very much on here — but I will be posting even less in the future, as I am deleting the app off the device I use most often. I will still have an account and I will still check in on BSky. Just, less frequently. Cheers.

Kudos to @masknerd.bsky.social for leading by example.

BREAKING: Look at this. A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning. 30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF. Market dumped. The trader made a profit of $192 million in two hours. Unusual.

Annual flu jab email from the campus administration. #MedSky “The COVID-19 vaccine will not be part of the seasonal vaccination campaign. Due to changes in FDA eligibility, co-workers are not required to report receipt or declination of the COVID-19 vaccine.”

Whooping cough.

Has anyone even tried to make the positive case for this yet? Why would it be good to be able to easily generate videos like this?

OpenAI employees are very excited about how well their new AI tool can create fake videos of people doing crimes and have definitely thought through all the implications of this

today is the three-year anniversary of the covid infection that turned into long covid. it has completely rewritten the course of my life. it has brought me untold levels of physical suffering. it has devastated my mental health.

I just read a thread that leads me to believe that a "professor of psychology" has no clue about survivorship bias.

Somehow this post lost my comment, which is this: you should be cautious about using ANY drug during pregnancy, but that does NOT mean Tylenol causes autism.

56 million years ago, Earth had a carbon surge called the PETM. It drove 5–8 °C of warming, acidified oceans, wiped out marine life, and took 200,000 years to recover. Today we’re dumping CO₂ 10× faster. The planet will recover again—but humanity won’t. 1/4

This is very powerful. #MentalHealth

Gabriel Martinelli has scored in 47 games for Arsenal and when he has netted the Gunners are undefeated (38 wins, nine draws). #ARSMCI

not sure what to say about the OpenAI study about LLMs producing output that has no bearing to reality. i feel like people have been saying this for ages. it's not a revelation; it's a natural consequence of the architecture of a word token model. it's not even a "gotcha".
