$50,000? He is relatively cheap.

Gregg Kellogg passed away this week. Most of you won’t know him but he was a good guy, very likable, and he worked tirelessly, as do many people, to develop internet/web standards so all of this just works.

These people don’t get a lot of recognition so, I just thought you should know.

RIP Gregg.

The binary distinction between living organisms and machines has outlived its utility, because nothing is our formal model of it, and life and machines are not what we thought. Even simple systems do side-quests beyond what our models of algorithms and materials encompass

@bsletten.bsky.social what are you going to talk about at arcofai?

The rest of us, all six billion of us, do pretty much what we are told!

And the hundred million cowards, they are the bureaucrats and paper shufflers and pen-pushers who permit the rule of the evil men, and look the other way.
They know what is going on, but say nothing, while they sign the paper that condemns one million men to the slower death of a famine.

The stupid men, who number ten million, are the soldiers and policemen who enforce the rule of the evil men.
In total, there are only ten million of them with any real power or consequence.

There are only one million of them, the truly evil men, in the whole world.
The very rich and the very powerful, whose decisions really count-they only number one million.

The world is run by one million evil men, ten million stupid men, and a hundred million cowards.

The evil men are the power-the rich men, and the politicians, and the fanatics of religion-whose decisions rule the world, and set it on its course of greed and destruction.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
