Yes, making the richest people in the world even richer at the cost of human knowledge, skill, and labor is the dream of all working class people everywhere. We were put on this earth to give our bodies, minds, and soul to the technologists to devour and sell it back to us. That’s liberation.
being anti AI is a luxury belief only available to first world people, especially Americans imagine how important machine translation is for people whose first languages aren't that common

"amplify your people" is 100% the best strategy
I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Trump continues to signal to Xi that he should invade and take Taiwan, and the US will do nothing. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Trump: "Look, if we had smart presidents, the Taiwan problem with China wouldn't exist. Nobody would care. They stole our chip business. All of it. 100 percent."
Maybe child raping billionaires *don't* have to run the world
The mobilization itself was already not something I ever expected to see, but to actually win? Hell, to double the winning margin from the 2022 runoff? Genuinely surreal. Maybe child raping billionaires *don't* have to run the world with a shit-eating grin. Maybe that can stop.
Great ##auspol thread
Let me tell you a story about the politics of Australia: Over the last 28 years generally, but over the last decade particularly, I've done a lot of politics outside of Australia. Last week, an organisation I work with called me in for a meeting mostly among people like me around the world /n

Our entire economy and way of life relying on a kind of magic machine that most of us don't understand, and a few aging coders are all thats keeping it working.
70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

"If we look at ME..we've known about it quite clearly for over 100 years. To step back and acknowledge they could end up with this horrific disease...we don't want to imagine we treated patients poorly for that long. I think science has had its eyes closed to the disease, to post-viral illnesses.."

Telling a woman to shut up when she’s asking about the attack ad you’ve backed calling a pedophilia victim a loser is like a turducken pf misogyny

Home Affairs gave a $4.3 BILLION air services contract to a company with no Australian air operators certificate or employees – or the required aircraft – and which was registered to a front company: a real estate agent.
Like almost everything else right now, this is strangely both hilarious and alarming. www.404media.co/php2shell-bl...

Sure, we should, if we can (many cannot). But as I keep pointing out, the government itself is making no provision at all. No stockpiles, no back-up, no alternative sources. It's individuating the response to a collective problem, and that never ends well. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Most of my Google opinions are rooted in pre-AI times but I agree with every word of this thread, and everything implied throughout. (I was working on WebKit when Google pivoted to openly malevolent force by forking the codebase to leverage Chrome for maximum control over the formerly open web.)
I published my first story in 1988, when I was 17 years old. Today, at 55, I've published more than 30 books, with three more coming in the next year or so. In the intervening years, I've spent a lot of time thinking and talking about publishing.
