The kids using “Brexit” and “AI” as insults makes me think the kids are pretty great, actually

If that "we're calling it superintelligence instead" thing took hold, presumably those .ai domains would end in .si instead. Which is Slovenia. Which is where Melania comes from. Now, having realised this, I am 8000% convinced that the whole thing is *entirely* a domain-related grifting attempt

3 weeks hence, heads of bill came out and confirmed it, and FF's new Mengele policy is STILL being completely ignored -- *including* by @labour.ie and @social-democrats.bsky.social. If they pass this shit NOBODY who lives here legally and becomes disabled will EVER be eligible for citizenship again

Update: they published the heads of bill for this shitshow student fashcunt shit, and yeah -- nobody forced into disability will ever not be disqualified

The overwhelming majority of people in the world have never heard this putz speak, even once, when he was not yet suffering from dementia. He was famously already unable to walk down stairs (because of prefrontal dementia) when he first declared his candidacy, now over a decade ago

This is the funniest thing I've seen today, possibly ever

A tweet by SarahStarberry that says "oh god read the vertical axis" on top of a chart measuring AI models' release dates and model numbers rather than any real capabilities

It's a shame that they were really cheaply made like this, because several Misuoka cars are *properly* bonkers in the best sort of way (see also the Le-Seyde, it's completely batshit)

(I think this is a misfire in your narrative and not a personal failure and don't wanna say) I read these threads and think that you have at the end of it said approximately nothing that supports the idea that you have any opinion at all about Carney/Canada and the EU despite a lot of claiming to

ps also HOW is anybody banging out 500word/h in print, or is that also no longer a requirement? are we all ok with this Duplo version of exams being equivalent to what we were forced to do? [Fwiw maybe i don't care but also:] Clearly this being actively concealed in public reveals... shame?

I mean ok (but at what point did "joined-up writing" stop existing? i would have expected to have *heard* of that at least) But also: Turkey changed its fucking alphabet 110 years ago and they have an excuse. These incurious morons pretend they have the exact same disadvantage because... whatevs?

Being married to someone who is far more Reddit-aware than me means I was this very week shown an entire community of people under 35 who need help decyphering (eg) old birth certs because they apparently cannot read *any* cursive handwriting *at all*. Your sample might as well be heiroglyph to them

Well yeah... also I disagree that II is "fffg coded" -- it is entirely Bertie-coded racist FF without adult supervision. SF's woe is the unsolvable problem that its LH staff think they're groovy lefties but down here *every time* some pub cunt says he's SF it's because he agrees with Hitler

There's some interesting shit in this but a) ffs WHY would they not split out the quite-parliamentarily-large group of Leninist parties? and b) a poll saying we are a 5% swing from "destroy everything" does not exactly support our political class's gigantic 'we are immune from eurofash' smugness

The free rider problem is the defining factor in whether someone is left or right wing, this is because if you think free riders are a problem you tend not to be intellectually curious enough to understand long chains of cause and effect.

It’s very simple. A reality TV host became dictator because he turned down a role for Sharknado 4 and that’s why the king of outer space, who cheats at Diablo, got to kill Africa. Now the economy is controlled by a sex cult that has something to do with Harry Potter fanfic because of robots.

David Heinemeier Hansson called for the extermination of Romani people, comparing them to animals. An entire roster of tech tycoons responded by each personally giving him $1 million for his open source software project, even though he’s already wealthy enough to have a personal race car team.

If any mathematicians are on the fence about coming out against Ai for doing nothing more than just stealing the best bit of craic of being a mathematician i.e. solving theorems then I think this is a legit reason to oppose ai and I will support you.
