Again: AI is a technology but it's also an ideology; that ideology is Bossism; neither bosses nor AI advocates really understand what most people do in their jobs so both assume AI can do it. They're *trying* but if these tools could replace jobs beyond Junior Software Developer, we'd know.

It's a Tech Day at SoNo Comic Book Factory. Now that Amelia Shadows 4 and The October Girl 4 are both ready for print and we're on the other side of Baltimore Comic-Con (which was great!), I'm finally dealing with the mess the latest Mac OS update made of my computer.

“She had bought raw goat milk from a farm recommended to her in a Facebook group run by her chiropractor”. “Marris believed she had done her due diligence. She had researched raw milk…” Her baby ended up in the ICU with a life-threatening E. coli infection.

California is teeming with black-market dairies, propped up by consumer demand fueled by misinformation. With evidence against one raw goat milk farm, regulators could have sought punitive action. But...

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

Disabled people do not exist as life lessons for your nondisabled characters/readers. Plenty of people believe that’s what we’re for IRL. I am not your teaching tool to remind you to be grateful or whatever. I am a human being with rights and dignity and needs. So must your disabled character be.

new research reports that cats vocalize more when greeting male owners. researchers suggest that this is because cats have apparently learned that men require additional explanation when provided with basic communication. I don't like the idea that cats are judging me this accurately.

Cornell expelled students who were protesting genocide in Gaza, but made five of seven guys who gang raped a drugged girl for seven hours write essays. That tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about the morals of that institution.

I wanna be totally clear: I don't even necessarily believe that we should assume Anthropic's LLM "plagiarized" the work of a biologist because his data was in a training set. I think it's very possible that *people at anthropic deliberately engaged in plagiarism to produce an apparent result.*

HOWEVER! ADHD is complex. So is human physiology. I 1000% get that meds can be life-changing for people, and can also change with time. They shouldn’t be treated like fucking criminals for trying to access them and jump through ridiculous hoops when executive functioning isn’t our strong suit!!

#quiltsky #quilting I've been home from school all day because I had an afternoon of dental work, but somehow I managed to finish my block challenge wall hanging and cut and assemble this cute Christmas kit I bought a few months ago. I'm definitely making this quilt again. It's too damn cute.

Hi, Norwegian here
In the USA, medical school tuition is
typically over $200,000.
In Norway: Nothing.
Students get government loans for living
costs. Each semester you pass, up to 40%
converts to a grant.
This is why a cashier's child can become a
doctor in Norway. Your academic abilities
matter, not who your parents are.
Follow for more from a social democracy,
where dignity is not a privilege.

Everytime we have an all-hands at work and AI comes up, people voice reasonable concerns about a) environment b) data protection c) reliability/accuracy, some executive always says "well it's out of the box now, it's not going away" and .... so? Just bc it exists doesn't mean we have to use it
