Contro la follia della tassa etica Una misura del tutto indifendibile che fa sottostare un professionista del settore a un'aliquota marginale del 68 per cento. Inoltre è inutilmente bacchettona, perché non dovreb...

È positivo, ma al tempo stesso un po' sorprende che Il Foglio si schieri «Contro la follia della #tassaetica»: una tassa voluta a suo tempo dal governo Berlusoni III e dalla maggioranza parlamentare che lo sosteneva | www.ilfoglio.it/economia/202... via @ilfoglio.bsky.social

Quarta e ultima parte del mio articolo su #ia e #lavorocreativo. Chi lavora nel nostro settore è come il canarino nella miniera: ciò che gli accade segnala cosa potrebbe presto accadere altrove. Serve un atteggiamento più critico verso la concezione e lo sviluppo attuali delle IA.

Framing the adoption of AI as an historical inevitability, rather than a way to do a thing you want or need done, gives the game away.

Nobody selling it this hard cares whether it helps; they want it to be the thing you have to deal with, like it or not. Problems, solutions, what’s the difference?

Negli anni '90 detestavo #Clippy. Oggi detesto Copilot. All'epoca, mi tenni #Office perché le alternative erano assai peggiori. Oggi le alternative esistenti sono più che valide, quindi ho appena disdetto l'abbonamento a #Microsoft365. Bye bye, Microsoft!

Dal 16 gennaio (ossia ieri), la campagna @microsoft.com "Adotta anche tu #Copilot" si è fatta più aggressiva: all'apertura di Word, adesso, Copilot è attivo per default e pronto a scrivere una bozza con te. In più, il prezzo dell'abbonamento a Office è aumentato.

M. LYDGATE
Oxford: Oxford University Press 1935.
First recorded in Dorothy Sayers Gaudy Night.
This book deals definitively with English prosody from Beowulf to Bridges. A magisterial work from a highly-respected Oxford don from Shrewsbury College, it benefited from substantial editorial work by Harriet Vane. The Times Literary Supplement called it a "category-killer.

The Mensuration of the Imaginary
The measurement of imaginary books is different from the measurement of other books.
Normally an object's measurement is concerned with the dimensions of height, width, and length, although in the case of books, the measurement of length is apt to refer the number of pages and not directly to a third physical dimension. And when depth is mentioned in terms of a book, it usually refers to a measurement that is not physical at all.
But the most important measurement we can make of an imaginary book is its tonque.
The static effect of the liminal pull is measured in terms of torsion, the perceived pressure to open the cover, to turn the page. The causal force is sufficiently strong as to be measured as torque and expressed in pound-feet. As a child I found C. S. Lewis' wardrobe trope to have extremely strong torsion (even as much as my own weight, at times).
At the approach of the liminal moment, it is possible, and indeed unavoidable, to sense the literary torsion in an imaginary book. Some such books have only moderate torsion, but some books (Hemingway's lost first novel, for example) have so much torsion that it is a marvel that their simulacrum retains a stable shape and does not twist itself into another dimension with a startling "pop
