The thing about using weakness as an insult is that attitude carries over into how we treat people who are generally in positions where they have been made vulnerable.

When the public thinks about "AI" they think about chatbots and internet slop but the real *transformation* stuff is in business processes / backends - and it's far from clear to what extent consumers will get any derived benefits. See for eg the AI arms race between insurers and hospitals below.

NASA Astronomy Hourly Picture - 2023-10-09: A Distorted Sunrise Eclipse #Astronomy #NASA #Space

Yes, but have you ever seen a sunrise like this? Here, after initial cloudiness, the Sun appeared to rise in two pieces and during a partial eclipse in 2019, causing the photographer to describe it as the most stunning sunrise of his life. The dark circle near the top of the atmospherically-reddened Sun is the Moon -- but so is the dark peak just below it. This is because along the way, the Earth's atmosphere had a layer of unusually warm air over the sea which acted like a gigantic lens and created a second image. For a normal sunrise or sunset, this rare phenomenon of atmospheric optics is known as the Etruscan vase effect. The featured picture was captured in December 2019 from Al Wakrah, Qatar. Some observers in a narrow band of Earth to the east were able to see a full annular solar eclipse -- where the Moon appears completely surrounded by the background Sun in a ring of fire. The next solar eclipse, also an annular eclipse for well-placed observers, will occur this coming Saturday. APOD editor to speak: in Houghton, Michigan on Thursday, October 12 at 6 pm

Yeah, it IS acting, and probably the closest to theater acting one can get while not on stage. But there are also different skills you have to learn. And it depends! Some authors are very involved in their books, some aren’t. Some I’ve connected well with and gone on to work with again!

Friendly reminder that Duolingo was initially concieved to trick people into translating articles for free, which they later used as training data for MTL algorithms. Duolingo's primary purpose has NEVER been about teaching you a language, even from the start! slate.com/technology/2...

If it doesn’t charge users and, so far, doesn’t serve them any ads, how does Duolingo make money? It tricks you into working as an unpaid translation service. At the end of some lessons, Duolingo will ask you if you want to practice by translating a real-world document. Which will turn out to be, say, a BuzzFeed article. By melding together enough stabs at this task from high-level Duolingo users, the app can render a surprisingly accurate translation. Which is worth good money. So far, Duolingo has contracts with BuzzFeed and CNN to translate stories from English into languages such as Spanish, French, and Portuguese. This service is already earning Duolingo hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, but von Ahn predicts he will be adding a raft of new clients soon. “The language translations market is huge,” he says. “It’s a $30 billion per year market.”
