Narcissists will often seek out a position in the limelight and turn violently loud with controversial opinions in order to get that sweet, sweet attention fix. 🤷‍♂️

Wie kommunistisch ist China noch, wo mehr Dollar-Milliardäre leben als in den USA? Das habe ich für Ö1 die Sinologin Susanne Weigelin-Schwiedrzik gefragt, die China so gut erklären erklären kann wie kaum wer sonst. Unser Gespräch kann man hier auch lesen und es gibt einen doppelt so langen Podcast:

If true, the ironic part would be that Austrian, err, intelligence services ignored information that an extremist was trying to buy assault rifle ammunition in Slovakia and was on the way back to Vienna a couple years back.

My personal AI agent posted my bank details on company Slack. It's made me rethink how I use it.
Shane Mac, the CEO of XMTP Labs, got a rude shock when one of his AI agents posted his monthly bank audit in a company Slack channel.

Funny how it was teens torrenting movies that got into trouble, but companies claiming content people make for whatever their stupid business idea of the month is is fine. People really are nowhere near angry enough, still. And people still work for these companies without having to worry.

If you have free asset store packaged, unity automatically added them to their AI "spark" thing In typical LLM fashion, it’s opt-out instead of opt-in! You can manually remove them (and you should)

I am sure the chetniks that disappeared in that time lived out their lives on a nice little alpine farm in the Bosnian hinterlands. 😬 (Interesting learning about the Finnish history here, was completely skipped in history classes in high-school.)

Suddenly Tito renting out estates to impress (and bed?) Austrian aristocrat ladies doesn’t sound as bad. (Though to be fair he also might have at least tolerated killings “for the cause”.)

The techbros focusing on generative AI porn from the very beginning does kinda support the assumption that they genuinely believe a variation of "Everything will be very customized entertainment, tailored to your very specific needs and wishes." from the bottom of their lonely, empty hearts.

(I’m basing that on a small sample of people I know who always wanted to create stuff, never spent the time to learn how, and always were jealous of competent folks, who I now see are the biggest AI cheerleaders.)

I’ve always felt it’s jealousy of people with “talent and skills” (because the AI bozos think that’s not hard work but some unfair advantage of just magically knowing shit) and schadenfreude that these are now made “worthless”/are destroyed by AI.

The amount of comments on @kevinpowell.co's recent videos saying 'CSS is dead', or 'Surely Claude can just do it', or 'Opus could one-shot it', or other permutations of the same thing is so disappointing. His GTA VI video is great. Worth a watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fi1M...

I also think discourse around disinformation keeps falling into the trap of treating it as a supply side issue, rather than examining the demand side and what to do about that. That is a far more pressing, and far more complicated, problem.

It is thus not surprising to see that neither self-branded software engineers in the majority masculinist mould appropriating the term from Hamilton, nor most other people in tech, take the idea of applying engineering to software projects seriously.

Wasn’t entirely horrible, no. Respected Germans post WW2, hated any kind of nationalists, despised russians, made coffee for his guests himself. Maybe a bit on the narcissistic side, as customary for autocrats, but not too malignant (because he was concerned to not be seen as a monster).

Now, obviously I’m not a professional. Could very well be the person wanting to analyze the impact of the new enclosure whose design they received doesn’t have the faintest idea what it’s all about, and they really need 2+ pages of summaries. But my gut feeling was that they’d know.

Imagine having to use these tools when trying to asses change impact on a complex hardware+software project… 😃 Literally saw an example describing what’s being added for 2 pages when ”New Enclosure.cad-file” was dragged into a system like that. Took 3+ minutes to process, too.
