Crucifixion by Tracey emin

Thought it was fifth position relevé, but its crucifixion, somehow apt

Slippery slope from “I need to listen to what the other side is saying” to “deep state discourse”

“I write because I need to say something I do not know.”

Asked if the US attacked a desalination plant in Iran, Pres. Trump says Iranians are "among the most evil people ever on earth." "They cut babies' heads off—they chop women in half..." "I know nothing about a desalinization plant, other than to say, if they're complaining about a desalinization plant, we complain about the fact they shouldn't be chopping babies' heads off." Trump envoy Steve Witkoff and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth can be seen nodding in agreement.

A pretty clear demonstration here of how the lies told to sell the destruction of the Gaza Strip to the public helped to create the structure of impunity required to destroy as much as possible of other countries too

Sorry, my initial post was wrong (as @chronotope.aramzs.xyz pointed out.) This reporting says AI systems were used for targeting was used in Iran, and that it was likely responsible for the school strike. It doesn't identify Claude. But we do know Claude was being used: www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

Classic music always has had a racism problem, but racists like Norman Lebrecht will be gone in not too long hopefully.

so insulting. seiji ozawa would be turning in his grave.

but they are customer satisfaction factories

had no idea about his background, oof. genuinely enjoyed reading the harpers piece.

Would wear the entire men’s collection (if I could!), so much more elegant than the women’s this time. Omg the look on the 3rd photo 👌

social media brains, esp the ones who specialise in "takes", are fried and as insensitised as the ones that they like to make fun of

appreciate randos like to share their takes and doom-monging WW3, sitting in front of their screens. epistemologically and ethically it's at the same level of stupidity and carelessness as portraying a war as a video game like the current white house

does the US really have "intelligence" - in this administration...

would not jump to conclusions too quickly

Everyone’s mad about Proton! Let’s go through the chain of events, as I understand it, that led to disclosure of identifying information associated with a Proton account being disclosed to the FBI.

Thank you 🫡

When a reading of text has proceeded by laborious stages within the test-rig of detailed study, pause to allow the overall effect to integrate back into a coherent human reading, and ponder whether your life may even have been changed, just a little, or your beliefs about large questions; whether your habits of feeling have been flattered or boastfully challenged, or whether your relation to the text builds up a kind of trust. This aspect is what you will take away with you when all the study is finished, and it should last you through a lifetime.

AI is Destroying the University and Learning Itself Students use AI to write papers, professors use AI to grade them, degrees become meaningless, and tech companies make fortunes. Welcome to the death of higher education.

Remembering this line today: "The scandal is not one of ignorance but indifference... As long as enrollment numbers hold and tuition checks clear, they turn a blind eye to the learning crisis while faculty are left to manage the educational carnage in their classrooms"

this is so helpful

this is very good, demanding granular level of transparency of their training data: "Our evidence was clear that high-level, aggregate transparency disclosures are unlikely to meet rightsholders’ needs and that more granular transparency reporting is required. " para 115
