Bound and tortured Palestinian hostages Israel's National Security Minister Ben Gvir: “Do you see them? This is how they are now, but one thing remains to be done and that is to execute them” This is what the US, UK and Europe support.

Have you seen the new /pulls view on GitHub, yet? If you opt in to the new experience, your pull requests get WAY more organized, with everything from custom views to collapsible sections to filtering by org and repo.

LLMs don't have coherent understanding of your codebase (yet). They generate code that **might** work. It is on you to understand and test their output.

I feel so exhausted trying to keep up with all the AI recommendations for developers. How do ya'll get anything done when you're constantly switching tools. Or is that just my perception? It might be just in my head but it feels like back when there was a new JS framework being shat out every week.

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

But, somehow, Jeff Bezos had $75 million to squander/bribe for his useless, money-losing Melania vanity movie. Who needs accurate, smart reporting when you can have shameless, stupid propaganda?

More than 3GB added to English Wikipedia alone this year. Nearly 250k editors worldwide. The collaboration network Wikipedia fostered is such an incredible gift to the world.

Wikipedia@wikipedia.org

Wikipedia is built by humans. Every day, volunteers from all over the world add to the sum of all human knowledge. One edit, one citation, one byte of data at a time.

This explains why they've been declining to take down anything I reported over the past 2-3 years. This is downright criminal behavior. In any normal country, Zuckerberg would be charged and Meta servers taken offline just like Europol dismantled those scam networks this week

Who Targets Me@whotargets.me

This piece suggests Meta is dragging its heels on reducing the (very large) number of scam ads on its services because they're concerned it will materially hurt revenue (the article estimates they make as much as $16bn a year from scam ads) www.reuters.com/investigatio...

Pretty crazy that you can now run any scam promotional campaign on Reddit, Youtube, Instagram and none of the platforms put in any effort in remove it

Back in August several academics raised concerns that a Deloitte report to government may have been generated using AI. Deloitte denied this and put the citation errors down to poor editing. Anyway, Deloitte are refunding the government $440,000 for a report that was written using AI.

Let's be clear a what's happening here: the "censorship" and "bias" narrative is being extended to Wikipedia bc the far right knows that getting bullshit into LLMs is how to shape reality as "answer engines" replace search engines. Wikipedia is core to that fight so the grievance blitz is here.

The recent commotion around Tylenol and autism reminded me how many neurotypicals are so uninformed about neurodivergence they think neurodivergent conditions (autism, ADHD, OCD etc) are some sort of plague that you can catch if you’re not careful enough.

The only thing I like about Jeff Bezos is his ex wife spending money

Ezra Klein went beyond opposing political violence to extol Charlie Kirk for doing politics "exactly the right way," making up a fictional version of Kirk to praise. That distortion, with its indulgence of bad faith, is a perfect illustration of the larger media failure that helps Trump. My latest

Five years ago, these headlines would have only been imaginable in Russia or another dictatorship. Americans used to take pride in freedom of speech, freedom of the press, or just freedom. Now they bow to a king.
