Pinning “This is an Xbox” entirely on sarah bond, while absolving Microsoft leadership of their role in it, sucks.

FUCK. MARX.
Marx won’t help you here unless you have someone to show you how Marx’s analysis of the effects of machines (which is a huge fucking class of objects) on labor applies to our contemporary situation.
just uh replace "game studios" and "jobs" with "unofficial sxsw event" and "party." i get that it doesn't map super cleanly, but you get the point

Claude cannot actually feel, it can't think, it doesn't have opinions, it isn't self aware, it doesn't have context outside the immediate window you are using it with. By asking for its comment on war crimes you are legitimizing the idea that it can be used autonomously or for war at all. Stop it.
Increasingly of the opinion that the correct answer to the Trolley Problem is "fuck you, why are you so fixated on finding reasons to justify killing people?"
Like the constant Trolley Problem chatter feels linked to the over-eagerness of the Yglesiases and Newsoms of the world to find vulnerable people to sacrifice for the greater good. Like it's a way to make HURTING people somehow seem VIRTUOUS.
No thanks!
A screenshot of discord message from DH. "Update 3/9 @ 9:00 Hi everyone, Today is the end of the third week that Ludovic has been in ICE custody despite the fact that he was following all the rules they laid out. A judge recently corrected the statute he was being held under so that he can finally receive a bond hearing which has been requested with many letters of support for Ludovic’s moral character. We hope that in the next week or two he will finally be released on bond. This has been a long week with the government going back and forth, raising our hopes and then stalling and reversing course. It all seems like ICE just wants to cause as much suffering as they can, just to get Ludovic to give up. They need him to give up, but thanks to all of the support he has received he is able to continue fighting for justice. In related news Maryland congressional representatives recently made a public visit to the Baltimore ICE facility where Ludovic experienced the worst conditions during his captivity. Recently Maryland judges have also ordered a number of corrections to appalling conditions there. Thank you to everyone who has been contacting your representatives regarding Ludovic’s case, the Baltimore detention facility, and more broadly ICE’s disgraceful conduct nationwide. Stay strong and keep spreading the word. We will get Ludovic home! #FreeLud -Team Ludovic @everyone"
We just got word that Ludovic's Bond hearing will be on Friday, we're one step closer y'all @everyone
#FreeLud Update !!

This was such a great conversation - I was fired up the rest of the day. :) The whole Kaleidoscope project has been such a great meeting of the minds

I really can't wait to see how big the lawsuit against grammarly gets and I hope the plaintiffs sue them into complete and fundamental nonexistence. Like, "the company has to scrap their code rather than sell it as assets, and then also dissolve" nonexistence.
Oh yeah, he's the best of the CS youtubers imo. After I saw how he used the Mass Transit DLC I couldn't resist picking that up for myself

FYI for folks at home—the gardens aren’t blocked off. Now that setup’s complete, the barriers are behind the food stands for health/safety reasons.
The area will stay open the rest of the day after lunch wraps up.
i had to know why someone gave this nearby island one star and i'm not disappointed by what i found
As it stands, as long as capitalistic forces make individuals have to choose between life and quality, life will always take priority.
And that's capitalism, not consumer habits.
If people were allowed access to the things they needed, they would have the financial bandwidth, possibly, to really go for that artistic of textile quality that people deserve to afford.
I'm never a fan of takes where the core premise is "everyone should individually pay more" and that includes a take I saw about private equity vs consumer behavior.
Much like the "everyone is 12 now" theory, Everyone Is Broke Now.
It has been indicated to me by longtime Nintendo employees, other lawyers, and folks who have found themselves on the opposing side of their work that Nintendo's lawyers are the lawyers other lawyers talk about to scare younger lawyers.

We're a bunch of indie comic nerds, so what better way to start introducing a new sci-fi universe than making a comic?
