ASL interpreters are unionizingβ€”and they say they're getting fired for it Members of Congress have stepped in to back workers at the two firms that monopolize remote interpretation services for Deaf people.

Kathleen was asked by a coworker about how they could learn more about the ASL Interpreters Union, which is organizing workers who serve Deaf people making phone calls. Kathleen's manager overheard. Two days later, she was fired.

My latest for @motherjones.com.

Let’s try something, bluesky. I need a good article to cite about genAI’s impact on critical thinking. I am cordially inviting anyone reading this to throw me a link to qualifying articles.

When devs says that LLMs make them more productive, you need to keep in mind that THIS is what they're automating: dysfunction, tampering as a design strategy, superstition-driven coding, and software whose quality genuinely doesn't matter, all in an environment where rigour is completely absent

It’s a panel from powerup comics where the text has been edited:

β€œwhat’s your opinion on women’s day

as far as I’m concerned, all days are for women”

MeToo pushed a few big-name bad actors out of their positions, but it did very little to grapple with the systems and the cultures and the people that empowered those bad actors and allowed them to operate with impunity.

Hey @mozilla.org @firefox.com ? If you're going to use the term "AI" & Only that term to refer to any & all of the machine learning & "generative" stuff you've put in your browser, then you gotta give us a way to search settings by whole word only. But also don't just bundle all that under that term

🚨 Techno-optimism reduces willingness to address climate change 🚨

In a new preprint, @maiensachis.bsky.social, @fdabl.bsky.social, and I examined the causal effect of techno-optimist beliefs on the willingness to contribute to addressing climate change.

If you see a Jesse Singal post targeting a trans woman and you feel the need to reshare that as some baffling defense of Jamelle Bouie… fuck is wrong with you?

Also, earlier I said I wouldn't be streaming this week. It makes more sense for me if I stream #balatro weekly at 8PM EST on Fridays, so you've been warned and maybe I'll see some of you tonight.

Realizing this may be a lot of balatroposting out of nowhere for my academic folks; iirc tomorrow is the day I hear back on whether my workshop paper got accepted to ACM CHI. I’ll talk more about that if it gets accepted but both the balatro thing and working on this gave me the fun zoomies lol

Last night I said I would start streaming #balatro on Fridays again. I forgot I had a nice one off thing this Friday, but I should be streaming again the following Friday.
