Here's the thing: if your "tell" for what's AI is just something that literate people use because it's in the Chicago Manual of Style (serial commas, en-dashes), you should not be in the business of claiming to be able to detect AI.

Finally starting ADHD meds. Would have been great to have been diagnosed 40 years ago, but we can only deal with the present and future.

I find it deeply unsettling that people who are so benighted can hoard so much wealth and yield so much power.

CW: antisemitism The internet appears to be cooked, we may have to nuke it from orbit and go back to postcards and volunteering and amateur sports and TTRPGs.

By the later 19th century, it was extremely common for a farmer to need a second and sometimes also third trade: farmer/farrier, farmer/wagon seller, farmer/innkeeper, etc.

736) Superbowlbot. Not sure why but a number of Americans have recently been asking for this one. So, due to popular demand, here is another Birbbot variant, this time in the form of a really superb owl.

A robotic owl with hinged wings and banded legs ending in flattened taloned feet. It looks vaguely angry.

Only example of "be the news" I can think of, offhand, that came close to working was Hunter S. Thompson, and he was pretty far removed from Weiss by any metric.

For me, this is the meaning of "success": not hoarding wealth, but using it well.

People should stop waiting for overdue sequels like The Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout 5, because they will likely be huge disappointments, if they are ever even made. Take joy in the older games, and find new ones to play.

Ötzi and a 45,000-year-old Siberian were both infected with a cancer-causing strain of HPV. This is fascinating, and a reminder that we have a vaccine that *prevents cancer* and everyone eligible should get it.

Two ancient humans, including famed ‘Iceman,’ had cancer-causing virus

Findings from ancient DNA may shed light on HPV’s history in our species

Who does he think all the scientists and musicians and mathematicians were throughout the ages: all neurotypical? Also, in the 1980s a quarter of Ireland could not eat gluten, and Jan Morris had already come out.

Look, sometimes I use Australian spelling, sometimes I use an obscure 18th-century Irish dictionary, and much of my fact-checking is based on a 1972 Rand McNally globe: but the important thing is, I dew it my whey.

In a time where populists are using the press more effectively than mainstream policians it feels a good time to publish on proto-populists doing the same in 1806 So if you fancy a reappraisal of William Cobbett's early radical influence, this one is for you onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

‘Rough Work on the Hustings’: Sheridan, Cobbett, and Newspapers in the General Election of 1806

In the late early 18th and early 19th centuries the Westminster constituency became notorious for its contested elections amongst its free and radical electorate, as well as for its longstanding MPs ....

Was talking to a 20-something about how I was once in the front row at an Etta James concert and his eyes lit up. Didn't have to explain who she was. Some of these kids are all right.
