1/ Iβm Till Eckert, a ProPublica reporter. For the past 2 weeks, Iβve been going to the same NY immigration courthouse.
Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away.

Generative AI by definition is conformity. It is an averaging of anything you ask of it - quite literally guessing what the most likely version of a thing might be. It is, by definition, mainstream, as is everything it creates old and deeply ideological, as every model trains on similar data.

Infatuated with Albuquerqueβs free bus system, @abqride.bsky.social. Maybe I got lucky, but it was as quick to get a bus from the airport as a Lyft and then a transfer to Old Town. Best public transit experience Iβve had in ages!

What if I have absolutely nothing to say? I remember when I wrote Twitter off as merely a disembodied AIM status message and I may not have been wrong.
