This is bad, and part of what makes it so bad is that this is clearly pulling from *genre* understandings of reality, which the statistical linguistic machine seemingly cannot distinguish from other text included in the training data. Truly an ideology machine where every episode of CSI is true.

Bungie saying Marathon is going to be different in a few years has me thinking they've already planned the name change to Snickers.

The index of authors is insane: here's the index of authors in full. Each person was asked to write a short piece about one specific thing they care about. The result is a book about EVERYTHING.

(And it's affordable, < $20 paperback)

Polymarket has created a market that would monetize a nuclear attack amid increasing concerns that bets are happening among government insiders who can make military decisions.

What stage of the apocalypse is this?

Telegraph censured for story of fictional family’s struggle to pay school fees Watchdog upholds complaint it breached code with article about impact of VAT on banker who did not exist

The Telegraph has been reprimanded by a press standards watchdog after it published an entirely fabricated story about a wealthy banker complaining of the impact of school fee increases.

Ian Fraser, a freelance journalist and author, complained to the Independent Press Standards Organisation (Ipso) that the Telegraph had breached the editors’ code of practice in an article headlined: β€œWe earn Β£345k, but soaring private school fees mean we can’t go on five holidays.”

The article, published online only on 25 May last year, reported on the impact increases in private school fees had had on a named couple and their three children.

The story explained how the investment banker Al Moy, 38, and his wife, Alexandra, had a joint salary of Β£345,000 with two children at fee-paying schools. It said the couple also had a daughter, Ali, a son called Harry and a two-year-old, named Barry.


The article claimed that after the addition of VAT to school fees, introduced by Labour on 1 January 2025, the couple were forced to switch supermarkets from Waitrose to Sainsbury’s, reduce their gardener to once a month and were taking fewer long-haul foreign holidays in order to make ends meet.

But the family did not exist.

My government has a real β€œwe didn’t know starting a war would cause a warβ€œ vibe going on which I realize I should be outraged about in the abstract but find myself mainly nonplussed by at this point.

Today, US & Israeli forces bombed the Gandhi Children’s Hospital in Iran’s capital of Tehran.

Nurses supposedly risked their lives carrying newborns to safety from the rubble.

I’m having trouble finding more reporting about this, but here is at least a blurb from Reuters:

Star Trek shot update! Some of the timing on the scrubber masks got f'd up, but I'll fix that in the next go round. Also, I feel like the lighting angle shifts a bit *too* much over the course of the shot. I'll tone that down. Enjoy, and suggestions are welcome!

It's really worth highlighting the history here

Obama and Iran had a deal. Trump tore it up in 2018, reimposed sanctions and assassinated Soleimani

Now, Iran had agreed to everything the US wanted in a new negotiation, and Trump bombed them anyway

Why would any country ever trust the US again?
