C'est marrant comment les gens qui hurlent que le passé et les actions de Quentin ne justifient pas qu'il ait été tué sont les mêmes qui hurlaient que le passé et les actions de Nahel justifiaient qu'il ait été tué.
Ça doit être quantique.

Screenshot of a Tweet by @TheChiefNerd inclusing an interview with Sam Altman. The text in the Tweet says: SAM ALTMAN: “We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter.”
The whole "AI" industry is just based on the hope that they can deskill people fast enough that they'll have to rent back cognitive support systems. Forever.
It's like Uber. Just that they don't try to break existing transportation infrastructures but your brain.
Proud to have worked with the brilliant @drmfreire on this new study looking into spike protein in #LongCOVID. The most important part of this study that doesn't just look for spike protein in folks with LC and healthy controls, but it also uses a technique called

It’s Long Covid Awareness Day (which I think should be the Ides of March, for reasons that will become clear.)
Some of you have heard this before. But I wanted to share my Long Covid story, because I think you should hear it.
On my birthday in November 2022, I woke up with Covid.
I’ve never used any of the LLM chatbots, avoided them even in the early days, because they had all the hallmarks of a major cognitive and psychological hazard from the very beginning
“I’m not gonna use this shit unless I can be sure it won’t mess me or others up” is an entirely reasonable position
I have watched 6 hours of a DOGE bro deposition. The whole thing, start to finish. It's a fascinating, and horrifying, look at the people who caused so much damage, didn't really achieve anything at all, while still being so sure they are right. Here's what they said: www.404media.co/i-watched-6-...
a snippet of a mini-comic, at top - straight line stretches from point A to B. Immediately below, same dot at A, then becomes a curving, meandering line that winds through the page and ends at a point with rays and a question mark emanating from it. Text reads: "Nothing can do this for you - for that robs you of experience and conflates answers with learning. Rather, it's all the decisions you make along the way, the mistakes, struggles, and surprises! These pathways you create - this is learning. https://spinweaveandcut.com/fall-2025-syllabi/
In case anyone needs it for their syllabi, my statement in gen-Ai from the minicomic I made as a syllabus for class last semester. All online and printable here spinweaveandcut.com/fall-2025-sy...
Si le système scientifique et universitaire français s'effondre, ce n'est pas seulement parce que la Chine et l'Inde montent en puissance.
Il s'effondre SPECIFIQUEMENT du fait des politiques désastreuses menées depuis 2004: la doctrine Aghion.

You'd be hard pressed to find a worse climate villain when it comes to data centres than Elon Musk.

By my own calculations, Musk's carbon bomb slop factories are undoing nearly half to all of the emissions cuts from Tesla products ketanjoshi.co/2026/03/02/m...
March is Long Covid awareness month, and one thing you should probably be aware of is no matter how back to normal you are, you are at risk of complications from Covid, including LC. And those excess death numbers aren’t great either.
To be exquisitely clear, I never volunteered for this, I was never asked about this, and I do not consent to this.
Pretty sure everyone I know on the list (much longer than what is shown) would say the same.
Grammarly can fuck off to the edge of the universe and keep fucking off beyond that.
Both of the options here are human writers. The first option is unprocessed human writing and the second option is human writing run through a language model to reproduce the same outputs with different words
If it couldn't have existed without training data, it isn't creating anything at all.
modern life gets a lot simpler once you learn to remember this
i think this is an important point - not just the way ai coding tools can affect an individual programmer, but the way it interrupts a social practice / a community of people making software
Why tenured academics and administrators insist that using this technology is unproblematic and just how the future should work with none of our input is baffling to me. Feels like a modern cargo cult.
okay, Ill bite.
What do you think the point of reading for and writing a literature review is? The process of reading and writing is crucial for THINKING. Your ideas are shaped by all of this, offloading it to gAI, no matter how "good" you think gAI is at it defeats the purpose entirely.
This is one of the most reasoned & persuasive arguments for not allowing LLMs anywhere near reading & writing intensive classrooms. We can 100% choose not to outsource our reading & writing labor to a bot, and model for our students why they should do the same. #EduSky

The left is not "missing out" on AI. It's winning the argument. Americans worry about AI and dislike tech CEOs. They're mobilizing against data centers. They support regulation, even refusal.
Calls for the left to embrace AI are an effort to change the terms of the debate in Silicon Valley's favor.
Think what this decision means to you all. Schools are full of covid. Over 120k UK children have long Covid and they have no rights. We know #Covidisairborne and that means indoors anywhere where anyone has COVID! www.europesays.com/ch/17407/
