12/ Some version of AI may be here to stay. How fast it spreads and what it's used for are still ours to decide. Calling it inevitable is a way of taking that decision away from the public.

Hey @fnv.bsky.social, ik wou een afspraak maken voor jullie loopbaanspreekuur om te kijken of ik nog wel softwaretester wil zijn of dat ik eens wat anders kon gaan doen, maar ik geloof dat universum voor me besloten heeft 😅 Bugfinder general it is.

Foutmelding 'afspraak definitief maken is mislukt' aan het einde van de boekingsmodule van de fnv

Een formulier waar de optie 'telefonisch' is aangevinkt, maar het formulier vraagt ook om een locatie en geeft aan geen plekken te hebben. Pijlen om een en ander duidelijk te maken en een sweat smile emoji toegevoegd door mij

Zelfde formulier maar nu is de optie 'online' aangevinkt, het formulier vraagt nog steeds om een locatie, geeft als enige locatie mogelijkheid 'landelijk' en geeft aan dat er op het moment geen mogelijkheid is voor een afspraak op deze locatie.

Again, woke 1 was not silly. None of the things that Black people asked for were inappropriate or unnecessary. Y'all just stopped listening to Black people, and started talking amongst yourselves about what you thought woke was. Then you called that silly. You listen to nazis over Black people.🤷🏿‍♂️

I went to the vagina museum for the first time last December. It was great! I tend to think I'm fairly educated on the female anatomy and then I learned I had always called uterine tubes ovaries. This place is great and important and it needs cash to exist. Throw in a penny if you can.

A display from the vagina museum with a felt model of the clitoris, urinal tract and vagina. A sign above it reads

Clitoris

Congratulations! You found it (and more informative text on the clitoris but it's not all captured in the image)

A 14th century parable about agentic AI transformation

Tamerlane was looking for someone to teach his donkey to talk. Nobody wanted the job. Finally the wise men of the dunes - Hodja Nasreddin took the position and promised to teach the donkey to talk in 10 years time.
- Are you crazy? his friends asked him.
- Not really, Hodja answered, the money is good the job is not hard and in 10 years a lot might happen: I might die, or Tamerlane might die or surely enough this old donkey might die.

Hot take - even as a joke, I don't really like the idea of ppl blaming interns for taking down production Even on the chance it happened to be true (and there are definitely cases where it wasn't an intern), if an intern was able to do that, that's a problem with the processes and systems in place

Absolutely not. Every time someone tries this, I point out how it biases against Black speech. Every. Time. 🤷🏿‍♂️ Also from the launch of the Perspective API and its "toxicity" score. Police don't kill too many Black kids." Score: Not toxic.🤦🏿‍♂️ "Police kill too many Black kids. Score: 80.28% toxic.😮

Screenshot of toxicity API showing that the statement "Your criminal justice system in the US is not extremely racist." Is not identified as toxic.

This is a statement that many white people would agree with.
