Four people have sent me this job offer already. I'm not sure I can make it clearer. Not only do I really like what I do, but I also don't want to work for the bad guys. #AI #Anthropic

A screenshot of a conversation between me and a friend. They sent an Anthropic job offer with the comment "FYI".

I reply "Thanks for the head up, but I'd rather cut off my own testicles with a butter knife than work for an AI company. Still, I appreciate the thought"

Goodness, has it been over 14 years since I watched this #Kdrama? Honestly, What's Up? is pretty mid, but the best thing about it is the amazing soundtrack.

This image features a large quantity of stacked, solid gold bullion bars organised neatly in overlapping rows.

The gold bars are stacked horizontally in a dense, multi-tiered grid structure, showing the flat trapezoidal end faces facing forward.

The foreground rows are in sharp focus, while the bars extending into the background gradually blur out into a soft, glowing bokeh, accentuating depth and scale.

And now Viki is no longer accepting series requests for #kdrama and #cdrama from subscribers… Looks like this, along with the bad app design update and AI replacing volunteers on subtitles, completes the utter collapse of a once fan-centered app into an iqiyi/netflix clone…

An email from Viki Support addressing a series title request. It expresses appreciation for user interest but states that they are no longer accepting title requests at this time. The message encourages community engagement and offers resources for understanding licensing. It concludes with thanks.
