Holy shit. Someone has decompiled the Adobe suite, rebuilt it in Rust and released it as open source. Either all software is dead or the US copyright laws are about to receive an update. getartcraft.com/apps

Theory-free inference is a bid to substitute one for the other: the beauty and terror of being able to manipulate the world without studying or understanding it is that it can be done with money alone. No experts needed.

In short, the power to thwart billionaires' desires. AI is the money-losingest enterprise the human race has ever embarked upon. More than a trillion dollars has been spent *this year* to make a mere $50b in revenue.

Here's a funny thing about the right to vote: it wasn't won by voting.

Two suffragists in period dress, ceremonially putting ballots into a ballot box. The background has been replaced with an elaborate collage of 19th C printing-press parts. The ballots are glowing with radiant spikes. The face of the ballot box has been replaced with an Nvidia Vera Lynn GPU.

Right??! I was born and raised in Poland. This is so dispiriting. And frankly, if this is where we are going to end up anyways, I would rather have it the way it was in Poland of my youth. There was hope, more equal opportunities, good free education up to university, free healthcare.

Cotton Mather, the Salem and Boston witch hunter ideologue, became later in life a proponent of smallpox inoculation (after loosing his wife and two children to measles) against an opposition of other Puritan leaders and physicians.

So you just learned about the AI cult, huh? Here is the longform explainer you need to make sense of the very, very strange ideas driving tech policy in 2026. Buckle up, it’s a wild ride. www.techpolicy.press/what-policym...

Nathalie Maréchal asks, why are we betting the economy and the future of democracy on cult-like beliefs?

Straight from OpenAI's Brockman and Microsoft's Nadella - 'doom loop' for the entire web [as they vacuum up and substitute the work of journalism and threaten their economic foundations]. /2

For cynics, this is all a shuck, a scare-story to convince the rubes that their modestly useful utility software is really a nascent "superintelligence" and thus capable of replacing all their workers, which means they should fire all those workers and start sending their salaries to AI companies.

to be more specific I should say revenues collected by government, but the screenshot says it. Bottom line the public pays out and suffers more than it collects from this industry effectively debunking the claim we need fossil fuels to counter US trade aggression.

This is a good piece! The love-hate relationship Canada has with its immigrants (speaking as one of them).

To live in an age of monopolies is to live in an age of regulatory capture, in which your government routinely fails you in terrible ways to benefit elites and insiders.

I didn't think it was gratuitously violent. In my opinion it was very uncomfortable which was its point.

There is this movie 'Unthinkable' about torture with amazing performance by Micheal Sheen who you will not even recognize.

Gloria Steinem died with fewer rights than she had during her lifetime. That fact needs to be front and centre of every media report, every dedication, every discussion of her death.

Yes, this is a plug. Last month, I started using "incogni" to wipe my data from online data brokers, since this is becoming a prevalent security issue. So far, I'm pretty impressed. If you want to try it, use this code and we both get a discount: incogni.cello.so/6kB4DRHAfU7
