"The Alabama governor announced the commutation Tuesday, just two days before Burton's scheduled execution."

When I joined as the head engineer of the Torment Nexus project, it was to work on fascinating technical problems and make the world a better place along the way. I am appalled to discover that the Torment Nexus would be used this way and, now that my options have vested, will be leaving the project
This happens so much in tech: People going to big tech and then - after having gotten wealthy off of it - pivoting to being super ethical and moving into the NGO space or something like that. I hate it so much.
And media eats it up; no story is complete or credible unless it has a quote from someone who’s done time at a big tech company. No policy is valid unless it’s had input from an exec from a big tech company.

For what would have been Mike Davis's 80th birthday today, we've put the Essential Mike Davis collection on sale through the weekend.
"We must fight like the Red Army in the rubble of Stalingrad. Fight with hope, fight without hope, but fight absolutely."
"For Steliou, the drone strike at Akrotiri came as no surprise."
"[I]n Cyprus, anger is focused on why Britain still has military bases there at all."
"It's a sickening example of a colonial mindset."

Medical institutions are cracking under pressure from donors and lobbying groups to police their employees' Palestine-related speech. I spoke about these conflicts on KPFK 90.7 FM in November. Here, I'm explaining how the Helen Diller Family Foundation funds hospitals and pro-Israel hate groups.

xAI wants to build a huge, natural gas-burning power plant in Southaven, Mississippi. Regulators plan to hold a key meeting about this in Jackson, ~200 miles away, on Election Day for the 2026 primaries tomorrow. Some residents will trek out to hear what they say...

Figurines of Brady Bunch and Partridge Family fighting each other
I have created a diorama of the Partridge family attacking the Brady Bunch family. My life is very boring.

Do you find it difficult to understand why LLMs — like ChatGPT and the like — are a form of ‘automated plagiarism’?
Take 3 min and listen to this excellent explanation by @gwenvarley.bsky.social

So glad sthg like this is finally happening, largely thx to @kristenthomasen.bsky.social. Been ~2.5 years now of layers of disheartenment & sustained moral injury (5 if count covid), and a public discussion focused specifically on Canadian complicity, from a tech /tech law angle, is long overdue.
In 2023, I sought to explain to a parliamentary committee what a structural collapse of the global food system would look like, and why this this is plausible - even likely. I think the likelihood has just ratcheted up a notch. I beg you to read and understand. Thanks

I don't mind optimism, but the reality is that voting history shows 2 things.
1. White people lie in polls.
2. White people collectively vote for conservatism or don't vote at all.
We should not expect that to change until there is material evidence proving it.
The white vote cannot be trusted.
