Whilst out and about and cake-bothering booksellers, I saw my first Hookland sticker out in the wild.
A Hookland sticker on a pipe covering up some fascistic filth. The sticker reads: HERNE THE HUNTER HATES YOUR RACIST BOLLOCKS

Att konsumera A.I kultur är som att hänge sig åt nekrofili: Det är själlöst, vidrigt, kallt samt något man inte borde skryta om ifall man håller på med det PLUS att liberalernas ungdomsförbund vill ha mer av det i samhället.

Exakt detta. Den här mandatperioden handlar om att skapa rörelser som kan bemöta klimatkris och fascism. Så glöm allt vad ministerposter heter - vi har fått fyra års respit att skapa ett alternativ till dagens partipolitiska och mediala återvändsgränd. Misslyckas vi med det så väntar Tidö 2.0.

Snart tre år. Alla som velat har kunnat se vad som händer i Gaza. Otaliga palestinska vittnesmål, uttalanden från israeliska politiker, det orgiastiska våldet. Ändå har motståndet mot folkmordet "straffats" hårdare i Sverige än stödet för detsamma. Den skammen.

Today in misleading album covers
Album cover of E-type's 1998 album "Last Man Standing"
A long-haired man with a face smeared with dirt stands up to his waist in brown river water. He is wearing a steel breast plate over a brown shirt, and holds in one hand a knight's helmet to his side, and the other holds a the hilt of a sword in such a way the tip is resting against the riverbed.

Black-and-white three-part comic. In the first scene, one simple cartoon figure holds out a small round handmade-looking object and says, “I MADE THIS.” Another figure replies, “YOU MADE THIS?” In the second scene, the second figure is shown alone holding the object. In the final scene, that figure holds it proudly and says, “I MADE THIS”

Bra exempel på manipulativt språkbruk. Erkänna är ett s.k. implikativt verb - det implicerar ytterligare ett påstående som måste gälla för att man ska kunna använda det, nämligen att han också är anklagad för något. Det är han inte. Skuld fungerar liknande, antyder att något skett. Det vet vi inte.

Ezra Klein asked Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang about AI making kids worse at math and reading. Huang’s reply: “Does it matter?” Then he said he doesn’t know his own address or phone number. “We’re going to lose some fine intellectual dexterity.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/23/o...
So the message of this research out of China, where you were seeing a lot of kids using A.I. to help them, was that when they were using the A.I., they were getting things done faster. But it turned out that the skills they were learning were not holding, that their actual personal performance, at least in the way we traditionally measure it, was degrading.

What do you think when you hear that?

The last part — I completely agree. Try to get a kid to do long division right now. The multiplication table is starting to be forgotten. Doing square roots, my goodness. Basic math is being forgotten. Does it matter?

That’s my question for you.

Yeah. I don’t think it does. I don’t think it does.

But there must be some set of skills that matter.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But maybe not those. We’re going to discover new ones. Just maybe not those.

There are a lot of skills that don’t matter. My first confession, I actually don’t know my address.And I ——

I don’t really believe that to be true.

It’s completely true. Janine will tell you and Lori will tell you.

One day I had to pump gas — it was a few years ago. They needed my ZIP code, and I panicked. I didn’t know my ZIP code. I don’t know my telephone number. I forget these things. I can live with it.

But let me take the other side because I don’t want to fall into a thing where, because some skills can be safely offloaded ——

Yeah.

I also can’t get anywhere without a mapping system now. Never could, frankly. But I’m a big reader. And one of the skills I really value, one of the capacities I have that I really value is an attention span formed on physical books.

You’re a big reader. I’ve read about the kind of reading you do. And there is, prior to A.I., a lot of concern and noticing among college professors and others that the way people use the internet has probably shortened attention spans.
Some skills can be safely given away. Others are valuable. They are capacities that are needed for that flexibility, for that creative thinking, for that focus. It can’t be the case that everything can be traded off.Some skills can be safely given away. Others are valuable. They are capacities that are needed for that flexibility, for that creative thinking, for that focus. It can’t be the case that everything can be traded off.

Yeah. Well, I think that we’re going to lose some finer intellectual dexterity, but we’re going to be better systems thinkers.

Today’s engineers are far better systems thinkers than I was when I graduated from school. But I was a much better transistor thinker.

What do you mean by systems thinker?

They think of large systems. Today’s computers have trillions, hundreds of trillions of transistors in them. When I first graduated from school, the first chip I worked on had 200 transistors. I knew every one of them by name. No engineer does that today. Most engineers now work well above the transistor, well above the functionality, and they’re cobbling things together to do things.

So you need to think much more about systems and interactions of systems. So some of the lower-level knowledge is gone.

Medan det offentliga exalterat jagar en kille som misstänks vara alldeles för svart för att vara så populär så agerar vanligt folk med civilkurage mot statens rasism.
"Aliya och Najib körs till Arlanda flygplats i närheten, direkt till planet som står och väntar. Det är en vanlig, kommersiell flight, men syskonen leds på – i handbojor – mer än en timme innan avfärd. 

Men planet lyfte aldrig – på grund av ”civilkurage från de andra passagerarna”, enligt Leo Ahmed.

– Folk protesterade, tills piloten bestämde sig för att han inte kommer flyga. Det var högljutt, argumentation och skrik. Åtta eller nio personer där från Gränspolisen och Migrationsverket.

Nu är Aliya och Najib tillbaks på ruta ett igen: på förvaret i Märsta, i ”limbo” utan något bestämt nytt utvisningsdatum. Tidigare har syskonen inte fått träffa varandra innanför väggarna mer än en timme åt gången."
