Teachers are having trouble with boys as young as 8 not listening to them because the manosphere tells them they shouldn’t respect women.

Pretty much everyone went to school with some Young Conservative type who was weirdly into politics at a young age.

Georgia Power put out an ad recently claiming data centers help the economy.

Motherfucker read the room. Everyone’s aware the “economy” has no bearing on the actual lived experience of the economy.

im an actor and comedian outside the corporate world. I just gig in the evening. I go on dates with my wife. I go to friends birthday parties. I work out. I garden. I play with my cat.

The bad news is - if you wanna do stuff, you gotta go do stuff

which is ~100%

a while back, for a work thing I tried using AI to put a filter on a pic of a model wearing an off-the-shoulder. She was fully dressed, except the skin on her shoulder was showing to the collarbone. No cleavage.

It kept refusing to do it for “nudity” reasons. and then because i was trying to “impersonate” someone (it was a stock image)

I lived in London as a fuck ass poor student in Forest Gate, Ilford (technically Essex) and Stockwell (all fairly shabby areas) over about 8 years before later moving to a nicer area (Clapham).

The only people I saw with weapons were the police.

they were probably bringing attention to the fact that most sharks don’t want to attack people at all and rarely do it and hoping for no retaliation

yep. everyone at mine was being praised for creating an agent that turned meetings into JSON and then the JSON into Asana tasks and the Asana tasks into a report and the report into an internal and external email and the email into a slack message and the slack messages and emails into weekly summary.

Burning thousands of credits for what could be replaced by…

pretty much exactly what it sounds like

no it’s all digital now. you have to use an app

they ruined Twitter the moment they added images, and then it got worse with videos, the 2018 algorithm switch, and long tweets.

when your app is an everything app it’s a nothing app

man such a banger of a song with a great music video.

programmers perform labor tho, and rely on physical supply chains (computers, data centers, networks, keyboards, chairs, screens) to do their labor.

programmers also cannot operate without collaboration and cannot bring their labor to market for a return without payment processing, publishers, distribution networks and marketing.

you also end up with AI buying AI from AI as there are no humans to generate or recieve the AI output.

Does this mean every second definition of a word in the dictionary is also a homonym? How different does it need to be?

“homonym” == “same-name”, so, yes by definition. it has the same name as another definition.

it’s war. pissing people off is par for course.

I feel like English is more of a patois/pidgin than people think. Just the impact of the Normans, French/Gauls, Celtics and then latterly cultural impact of the French/Germans, Indians, Jews greatly shaped our language in the middle ages, which has kind of settled into a language slurry in the last 600 years.

i bet you could do a reverse of that scene in the wire where they’ve got a guy hooked up to a photocopier that is printing out the word “lie”

the messaging strategy. Press releases, bylines, interviews, media appearances, the media training that goes along with it, and the messaging to say.

some pr firm found the line works in whatever context and is selling to them for $20k/month
