As a Brown alum and father of a trans daughter, I find this deeply disturbing. But not surprising. After all, most universities care far more about the Benjamins than the learning. Sadly.

You and your colleagues are doing the right thing! I just made donation to you to help pay your fines for breaking quorum.

AI Will Replace Recruiters and Assistants in Six Months, Says CEO Behind ChatGPT Rival Perplexity's CEO lays out a near-future where entire white-collar roles are automated by a new generation of AI browsers, transforming a week's worth of work into a single prompt.

Nope. Wrong. AI isn't taking over the world. Nor most jobs.

I'll have to dig back through your episodes to find them. Great perspectives.

I'm loving this episode! Ed, please have more guests like @cherlynn.bsky.social on Better Offline. Her perspectives and view are well thought out and very informative. Same with @amorrow.bsky.social from a few weeks ago.

Bibi is addressing Israel, and I swear to God he sounds like he's got a boner for Trump bombing Iran. Killing people literally turns him on!! OMFG

Best of luck! Missouri, and most red states, isn't gonna be a good places for trans or queer folks during the next 4 years. Cuz 'Merica voted stupid. Again.

Missouri is home of the Assemblies of God and other far right Christian denominations that can't see past their absurd mythology. They only want to hurt others who aren't like them. And the MoLeg is filled with these nutters. I can't wait to get out of this red state hell hole. ๐Ÿคฎ

I'm relatively certain they are mythological creatures.

Bill Gates said back in the 90's: "Everything after the first billion doesn't matter".

And yet, Bill hasn't given away all but $1B. He's pledged to do so on his death, but still, you make a very valid point. He could do that NOW.

Trump and Co are about to turn the US into a steaming pile of dog shit, and fittingly, Patone has given us a fancy color that is basically "shit brown". Welcome to 'Merica! ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

It really is about balance, isn't it? I feel like I sit far too much, but I also don't run or take long walks. If I did, some sitting time would feel really good. You do the opposite, so yes, a good chair would be essential! I kinda like the idea of the wobble stool, a nice in between perhaps?

I'm trying to stand around 6-8 hours a day, so my (pretty good) chair from Staples is more than enough. Sitting too much, no matter the chair, cramps up every muscle in my body. A padded wobble board for standing makes standing my preferred option all around.

It makes me want to put the phone in airplane mode permanently, which would of course defeat the whole "mobile device" concept. Seriously WTF Apple!

WOW!! Not only Signal, but Siri had turned on "Learn from this app" on Bitwarden, financial apps, etc. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!

In a country that let 1 million people die so that we could get a burger at the local bar, it really isn't surprising. I agree with you 100%, but I'm no longer shocked by the utter lack of concern in 'Merica for our neighbors. It's truly sad.

Pro 14 M3. It just works. I was skeptical about 16GB of memory, but so far so good. If I did heavy video or image editing, I'd want more, though.
