"Thanks standing up for me, slugs" Básicamente, el deprimente escenario habitual en redes sociales. Viñeta de Ricki Blanco.

La escribió el sábado, la grabó el domingo y tres días después saca un tema que yo ni en mil años podría hacer. Que tipo mas talentoso.

Bruce Springsteen@brucespringsteen.net

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

No importa lo que uno piense del gobierno/régimen de Maduro. Lo que está pasando ahora en Venezuela sólo debería provocar el rechazo internacional. Me temo que sólo va a provocar aspavientos y puñitos cerrados de indignación y a seguir adelante como si nada.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Lo que más triste me pone del resultado en Chile es la degradación moral de elegir, entre las opciones de derecha, a un apologista de una dictadura sangrienta que hace nada estaba gobernando.

Hoy es un día clave en Chile y viendo tanto creyente cristiano que va confundido, así que aquí les va una pista a quien votar.

The fact that no one bats an eye tells how insane that country currently is.

Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."

Engaños, manipulaciones... Igual que en el resto del mundo, esta gente, Kast, Milei, Trump, etc. no cree en la democracia.

🔴Un reportaje de ‘Chilevisión’ ha revelado una red de ‘bots’ ligadas a sectores de republicanos que atacan a las candidatas Evelyn Matthei, de la derecha tradicional, y a Jeannette Jara, del bloque de la centroizquierda 🔗 dozz.es/oghsh23

"The company consistently describes ChatGPT as if it possesses human qualities, (...) ChatGPT is not a person. ChatGPT is a pattern-matching system that generates statistically likely text responses to a user-provided prompt (...) This framing isn't just misleading; it's potentially hazardous..."

Replying to @rincewind.run

we can’t build a society that works on the back of whether the richest people in that society feel like helping according to their whims the kind of person who gets that rich doesn’t get there by spreading the wealth around you have to take some of it away

"The Bards in RPGs are ridiculous, what is this nonsense of raising combat stats just with music" Meanwhile in Chile:

You know that Mad Cow Disease is believed to have been caused by cattle being fed food containing remains of other cows. I can see us soon coining the term "Mad AI Disease".

Una diferencia radical entre Derechas e Izquierdas: Corrupción, un mal que cruza a todos. Pero... Mientras en la Izquierda expulsan a militantes apenas hay presunciones fundadas, en la Derecha buscan el empate mientras acusan complot del otro lado y dicen que tomarán medidas "al final del juicio".

"Liberate the city from their elected leaders" I'm not sure the people who support her or the administration she represents are aware of what this means.

Justin Baragona@justinbaragona.bsky.social

Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city." Sen. Alex Padilla is then forcibly removed!

Desgraciados. País podrido.

She is a tourist from Chile, and these cops left her teenage daughter on the streets of New York City alone. Why anybody would come to this country right now blows my mind.

i just think there is a large delta between the things LLMs are genuinely useful for and the things they are being sold as useful for

It is sad, because what's making Stack Overflow obsolete is precisely data taken from Stack Overflow. One open question around this Stack Overflow situation is that, since its content was created from user contributions, what will feed future knowledge for AI models.

Dare Obasanjo@carnage4life.bsky.social

With the rise of AI making Stack Overflow obsolete, the company behind it is working on a rebranding effort as the brand is now limiting to its other efforts such as selling SAAS Q&A websites to tech companies. Chegg & Stack Overflow have been the most visible losers since ChatGPT’s rise.

You can't demand longer working hours from people and then wonder why global birth rates are declining. It's either one thing or the other, not both.

Well... technically, and in all fairness to a whole continent, Pope Francis was the first American Pope.

The New York Times@nytimes.com

Breaking News: Robert Francis Prevost was chosen to be the first American pope. He will be known as Pope Leo XIV. nyti.ms/3EUsnNI

I know I give this "ackchyually" energy. But after being raised and growing up in the southern part of the American continent, every time someone from the US refers to their country as "America" feels like a raccoon claiming it's "THE living species of planet Earth".

The enshitification process is getting faster and faster.

Dare Obasanjo@carnage4life.bsky.social

OpenAI is rolling out product recommendations that will send you to merchant websites to purchase items. Interestingly they aren’t ads or sponsored. For now. The endgame will be for these to become paid if usage gets high enough. Ads came to Amazon & Netflix. They’ll come to ChatGPT as well.

De todos los países del mundo, tenía que ser un chileno el que le robó la cartea a la secretaria de "seguridad" de los EEUU. Perdón pero...
