The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...
This episode has exposed the principal weakness of Chartism, which is its inability to deal with shades of grey. If I say you owe me $80k, but if you complete a survey I’ll lower it to $10k, nobody would consider that $80k of debt. But what if I tell you to complete surveys until I say stop?
In the Great Chart War I am unequivocally on the side of the Bloodless Quants, who are usually correct on the specifics, and totally correct in general on the need for quantifiable data analysis. But today they seem to be reacting *extremely* uncharitably to a Tweet that is, at worst, poorly worded.

These people are basically vibe coding politics. They just say whatever feels right.
Later, he claimed Mamdani never commented about the recent stabbing of an NYPD detective. Mamdani talked about the stabbing several times, including the below statement where the mayor notes he visited the injured officer:

But we know more than enough to say this: We, the people of NYC refuse to accept authoritarianism at our doorsteps. We will always defend the humanity of our immigrant neighbors. ICE's operations in New York City — and everywhere else — must come to a permanent end. #AbolishICE #ICEOutNow

Schools have been trying to make the Automated Self-Esteem Industrial Complex work since DARE. But it can't! You can't en masse automatically convince kids that they are special! The very act of trying to do so communicates that they are, in fact, interchangeable cogs!

What this really shows is the difference between countries that were first introduced to the Smurfs via overland caravan routes from the Mongol Empire and the Ilkhanate in the 1300s and those that gained access through the 'Manila Galleons' and the 16th century Spanish silver trade with China.
Wonderful #map shows the name for the #Smurfs across Europe. The map also wins my award for best legend of the year! Source: buff.ly/2DkpbGw

Wow. The ICE shooter in Maine asked his ex-wife to "to lie for him and to cover for his character." She said he was abusive and had previously reported concerns about him to his military superiors. He was also a volunteer firefighter, but was removed after several spats with department leadership.

Yeah, people (not you!) have been eager to blame him on their intra-coalition rivals, but there really hasn't been any strong correlation between Platner boosting and positioning on what one might call the DSA-to-DNC spectrum. This really isn't the time for more infighting. He has to go.

seeing more of a particular brand of aggro post lately ("if you weren't a coward you'd be doing xyz thing that would have you dead or in jail" from posters who appear to themselves neither be dead or in jail). could just be feds/bots/trolls trying to entrap people on here but a PSA just in case
you're welcome to just do whatever hardcore shit you're implying other people should do

I said this back in January and I’ll say it now: the relative openness of Minnesota’s resistance has been a strength. It allowed huge numbers of people to take part while allowing virtually anyone to confirm that the purpose of the anti-ICE networks was nothing illegal, just legal observation.
