Google replaced pushing Git tags for certain source code with obtaining source code via Google Drive after making a request through Google Forms. It's completely ridiculous and they've gradually become very slow at handling requests. They're in clear violation of the GPLv2 now.

41C in the UK? In 2015 the IPCC warned world leaders not to breach 1.5C as it would unleash “frequent & severe droughts, heatwaves & rainfall.” We’re now on track for 2C in years, 3C in decades & 4C in our children’s lifetimes. The most spectacular failure of leadership in history.

my social circle is mine and nobody else’s but whenever Apple or whoever shows off a feature like “you can use AI to make a photo of your friend holding a birthday cake,” i just think about how everyone i know would think i’m a dumbass if i did that

Nice @anthropic.com , you're really speedrunning the losing users game. I'm over 18, and I'm still getting flagged for this. You went from the cool guy by rejecting the US contract to this.

Thought y’all would enjoy. Yesterday over on x: They removed dim mode because the overhead of CSS variables was too much AI will skip coding and write binaries directly by end of year

the success of the user-created For You feed while the official Discover feed flops is actually a pretty major win for Bluesky — it literally is the embodiment of their goal to decentralize feed generation and give users more control/autonomy

OpenAI is testing ads in ChatGPT. Time to quit and use something without them and even smarter instead.

They need to make money, but at a time when they don't have the best models anyway the timing seems off.

GREENLANDERS: “Trump, if you’re watching this— don’t come. Don’t buy Greenland. Greenland is not for sale.” (From Sky News) Again: Putin wants NATO to evaporate. Too much *analysis* ignores the potential of his hand in making Trump do this to hurt our interests and help his.

UNHINGED: Trump says he’ll make a “deal” for Greenland or force it. That’s the language of an empire, not an ally. Threatening Denmark crosses a line. NATO does not owe the United States obedience. It has every right to defend its members.

Finally wrapping up my video on a new kind of display that, among other things, can simulate lenses 🤯 Here's a shot through a vision test prototype which lets you look at a bunch of simulations and simply pick the one that looks the sharpest to you to guess your prescription. Insane to see this IRL

Elon Musk’s lawyers claimed in a court filing that he “does not use a computer.” Yep, the same Elon Musk who has had a decades-long career in tech and who has made public statements in the recent past about computers he appears to own.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

In a video posted by Elon Musk’s PAC, a $1M check recipient linked voting to receiving the money: “My name’s Ekaterina Deistler. …I did exactly what Elon Musk told everyone to do: sign the petition, refer friends and family, vote, and now I have a million dollars.”

🇪🇺🚫🏳️‍🌈Hungary just became the first EU country to ban Pride events in Viktor Orbán's latest anti-LGBTQ crackdown, allowing authorities to use facial recognition to identify and punish disobedient attendees.

“Be quiet, small man.” The destabilizing evisceration of international alliances through public, personal, schoolyard insults continues. Radosław Sikorski is the Foreign Minister of Poland, a NATO ally.
