Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

As a software engineer based in Canada with no plans to move to the US, I welcome the news of H1B changes. It benefits me in multiple ways, and I can’t really think of a downside.

This video is like an Easter egg of the internet youtu.be/-ahtp0sjA5U?... And then you read the comments, and some of the reply threads of the comments and it’s like unlocking a secret room from an already secret area in Silksong

I'm proud that I'm not really struggling with Silksong. I mean there are some tough bosses that have taken 10+ tries, but I've never felt the game was unfair. I've always felt like I've had a chance and I usually just need to be either more patient or a bit more aggressive.

Between a "No Other Land" crew mate filming himself being killed by a settler, to a journalist being killed by airstrikes he was covering minutes earlier, I'm not sure how much more televised Israel's genocide can be

So what will Israel do with 2 million dead bodies? Will they burn them? Giant mass graves? Will they sort the dead? All babies together, all women, all men, etc. think they’ll bury or burn families together? Will they keep some alive to bury and burn their dead family and friends?

The Canadian government must do everything in its power to bring an end to the genocide of Palestinians by Israel's government. Stop all diplomatic relations now. Expel their ambassador. Israeli government is worse than apartheid South Africa.

“a deliberate, systematic starvation of an entire population” A statement by Doctors Against Genocide. #Gaza

A statement by Doctors Against Genocide which reads:

To all international humanitarian organizations,
The situation in Gaza is spiraling beyond any medical or moral threshold.
The limited stock of intravenous fluids in our hospitals is no longer sufficient to treat the waves of starving individuals arriving at emergency units — from infants to the elderly, they are collapsing from pure exhaustion and hunger.
This is no longer just a humanitarian crisis.
It is a deliberate, systematic starvation of an entire population.
We urge you —
Speak. Act. Intervene.

One of my more optimistic thoughts is that at a deep level intelligence is truly correlated with social good. And so as AI models take on more responsibility and they get smarter, then there will be more social good in the world.

There is no longer any doubt that Israel has set up a fake humanitarian organisation so it can kettle Gazans into a kill box and murder them en masse It is evil beyond description and in a decent world it would result in immediate, massive, global action to stop them and prosecute those responsible

I'm coining a new term "Indie Enterprise" AI is going to make it so that just a few people will be able to operate at the same scale as a 1000-10000 person enterprise company today. Nobody will really know what that will look like or what new industries get unlocked as a result.

If New York City can do ranked choice voting and get cool outcomes like this, then Canada can do the same thing. Literally just have ranked choice in each riding would be 10x improvement over what we have now.
