Sounds similar to how I felt when my very secular wife asked me what do Catholics believe?

A broken, blue heart

With a broken Blue Bomber heart, I am no longer the voice of Mega Man.

I was asked to return for Mega Man: Dual Override, but only on the condition I work without the protections of a union contract.

Pixar’s John Lasseter Was the Subject of a ‘Whisper Network’ for More Than Two Decades For more than 20 years, young women at Pixar Animation have been warned about John Lasseter, who is taking a six-month leave of absence.

Yes, and the whole culture was mysoginistic. See for example how many films were directed by women...

Fuck Pete Docter who stood along Lasseter and enabled him for his own benefit. He can take his increasingly lame films and get lost

I’m seeing several threads in which academic (-adjacent) folks are lamenting the collapse of publishing and imagining alternative forms of publication – collectives of essayists, etc. Look to the blog collectives of the early aughts (Crooked Timber!), the contemporary worker-owned collectives!

And nothing is permanent. We can achieve change if needed.

And many times they would sacrifice gains for fulfilling their own depravity...

Not one VC funded anything

«AI for good»

Calling taking territory in another country a "defensive operation" is really insulting to anyone's intelligence.

Hey @proton.me, use these lemons for lemonade and consider offering fungible payment solutions.

The @404media.co story is very valid and important so your users to understand how they can maximize the potential of your services.

This is ridiculous, @protonprivacy.bsky.social.

You gave up the identity of a customer (as required by law) via an FBI request. You could be writing a guide on how customers can help prevent this from happening again, not frivolously attacking the integrity of a nonprofit journalism organization.

People Are Calling Meta Ray-Bans "Pervert Glasses" On Bluesky, users quickly embraced the term "pervert glasses" to refer to Meta's Ray Ban smart glasses, following a shocking investigation.

Make it stick.

Oh yes, that whole discourse is at least very disingenuous and self serving. And I feel it actually harms the development of the whole field and our understanding of its capabilities and true significance & impact.

Also, CS doesn't read their own history.

The funny thing for me is that constraints and clear use cases and careful design / alignment where already identified in the literature about conversational interfaces in the 70s as useful approaches. But now we were just hoping that we could avoid it with lots of data and training.

... Very influenced by some of the critiques of the arts & crafts pioneers to the massification of products. But by framing it as the precarization of the concept of work itself and what it means I think you capture more dimensions of what's going on here.

I particularly liked the point about the degradation of the concept of work because I had approached it from a designer / social sciences perspective and saw it normally through the lens of precarization of workers and loss of skills and value in end products...

Oh boy, I cannot think of a person less fitting for diplomacy than Kaja Kallas...

Looking forward to read it carefully, looks really insightful and timely.

The IDF just ordered the forced evacuation of *all of Dahieh* a day after ordering the forced evacuation of all of South Lebanon.

Israel is taking advantage of the focus on Iran to destroy Lebanon

Many European leaders are not beating the USA vassal allegations

Rutger Bregman is insisting on pushing AI bad takes.

Now, the risks may be low in any case, I am not sure about the jurisdiction, but as examples go, this is not impressive and it does signal potential issues that are not obvious to users.

I just read about how a surgeon replaced the timesheets he used to give to his patients to help them track their progress with a vibe coded app... And the first thing I think of, is this HIPAA compliant, are the parties aware of the risks?

Vamos a dar un cursito de macro (heterodoxa) feminista en línea y gratuito a fines de mes. Está medio especializado y es en inglés, pero si a alguien le interesan estos temas me avisan y les paso la info por DM :)
