If you are a person who works in social media, and your job requires you to manage an account on Twitter/X, please ask your boss, in writing, to verify that you are required as a responsibility of your position to be on a platform that knowingly creates and monetizes child sexual abuse material …

Them: I didn't get the invite. Me: I'll re-add you and it will send a new one. Technology: How 'bout I send 17 invites and auto-accept on their behalf that "Maybe" they are going to attend. Oh, also I'm going to cancel the meeting. But also still show in the details that you are both going.

i hope that men notice how whenever a rape story gets widespread coverage, women use it as an opportunity to vent about how fucking disgusting we think many of you are and how many have made our lives measurably worse, and take a few moments to deeply process that.

Can anything ever be redoubled? Wouldn't redoubling mean to resume doubling, which would mean you had stopped doubling and maybe you were singling but you can't redouble a single can you? Unless that's it: you are restarting your doubling of the initial singling? Anyway...I'm walking more.

LLM feels harder to say that AI, but it doesn't matter the size of the language model, it's still just a language model. Proposal: Stop calling it AI and start calling is LM. Is this a dumb idea? Yes. Does language inform perception? Also yes.

Aaron Swartz is no longer here to tell us what he saw like twenty years ago. futurism.com/artificial-i...
Swartz had been batchmates with Altman in the inaugural class of 2005 at the Silicon Valley incubator Y Combinator, and warned his friends about Altman shortly before his passing.

“You need to understand that Sam can never be trusted,” he told one confidante. “He is a sociopath. He would do anything.”

If I've learned anything today, it's that: 1. I can welcome a war criminal into my home & no one will arrest him or me for harboring him 2. I can do anything I want & say that something went rogue & it's not my fault I guess I'll start acting accordingly! ...waitaminute ... I'm not rich. Dang.

Through the course of a casual conversation, I found myself wondering if Napster is still a thing. My advice, if you don't already know: don't look it up.

Impossible list is impossible. A lot of the places he went I thought, "I know a place that does it better." But it's all IMO, so every list is the right list.

Image 1: A comic book panel. Emma Frost stands behind and speaks to Miss Piggy.

Emma Frost: Darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your midn to ascertain if you're telling the truth?

Miss Piggy: But of *course*, darling. I am an open book, a tell-all memoir.Image 2: A continuation of the same comic. Emma Frost's eyes glow white and her mouth is agape. 

Emma Frost: My god...

Behind her, a kaleidoscope of images of Miss Piggy in various scenes and forms, including dramatic action kick wearing spandex, wearing expensive-looking clothing, and wearing a tiara and being carried by shirtless men in a palanquin. There is a multi-colored star motif and several sparkle effects on the image.Image 3: two horizontal comic panels.

Top panel: Wolverine touches Emma Frost's shoulder from behind.

Wolverine: Frost? She legit? 
Emma Frost: She's... She's...

Bottom panel: a closeup of half of Emma Frost's face, eyes and mouth still wide with wonder. 

Emma Frost: "...She's *everything*. And I would *die* for her.
