Coworker just got ~nuked~ by the flu this year, get your shot which while not 100% is worth every chance. Last time I got flu I drove through the snow to the ER because I thought I was dying 🫤

“How did Prometheus go from a SoundCloud side project to 3.0?” Ep. 2 of our Big Tent podcast features Julius Volz, co-creator of #Prometheus and founder of PromLabs & #PromCon & “RichiH” Hartmann, Sr.Developer Programs Director at Grafana Labs. Watch: https://youtu.be/XvvBkhSasH4

Dass die Gewinne der Autobranche im 2025 niedrig sind, liegt nicht an einer Regelung, die 2035 in Kraft treten sollte. Es liegt daran, dass sie seit 2017 nicht schafft, ihre Produkte den Bedürfnissen ihrer größten Absatzmärkte (& der Klimakrise) anzupassen www.tagesschau.de/wi...

There was a third image in this set, which appears to be an outpainted or cropped version of another image in the set, but has more visible issues from AI generation. See if you can spot them!

Nano Banana Pro also seems to be good at moving the camera when recreating images, which can add a false sense of authenticity to sets of images, for example:

Über 500.000 Artikel ausgewertet: Eine neue Studie zeigt auf, dass auch die etablierten Parteien diskursive Inhalte der extremen Rechten übernommen haben und damit indirekt deren Wahlerfolge mit gefördert haben.

Exclusive: Anthropic spent $2.66 billion on Amazon Web Services in the first three quarters of 2025, around 100% of their estimated revenue. Its costs appear to increase with their revenue, showing little path to profitability. www.wheresyoured.at/costs/

One thing I absolutely hate and despise is being right in my political predictions so much.

It kinda felt odd to have some many weirdly positive #quantum computing slop pieces recently... But maybe #nvidia just has data that implies the #ai bubble is about to burst? NB: if you click through, #reuters will think you're interested instead of laughing www.reuters.com/business/nvi...

More of this please. Co-designing play spaces with children and young people near their homes led to “what researchers say is the highest increase in children’s physical activity ever recorded by an intervention of its kind”

I've run into two instances of people using an #LLM to summarize text and then rely on, and in one case defend, the "conclusions" which #Gemini and #Copilot slopped up, and it's a good thing I'm stopped work early today.

Stop. Breathe. Listen. Say little. There is nothing you can say that will alter the course of this conversation to your benefit. Sign nothing in that meeting. Your former employer just became the adverse party; don't take legal advice from them.
