It blows my mind to see so many leaders so nonchalant about genocide.

I see something old-times, like Pearl or Ethel.

Yeah, but the non-tech savvy business leaders see they can generate code with AI and think ‘why do I need a developer if I have this AI?’ and have no idea whether the code it produces is right or not. This stat should be shared broadly so leaders don’t overestimate the capability and fire people they will desperately need.

Biden has come a long way from the good old days of “Diamond Joe”. I’m so disappointed in him for how he’s handling this.

He works for a marketing and web design firm. So the guy who designed their graphics is gone and they are using AI tools. Imagine paying for a firm to build you web and marketing materials only to have someone just use an AI.

Why bother paying the marketing firm at all?

Yeah, some of these are just getting extra attention because the plane is a Boeing and media is on the lookout for it. (Probably) not Boeing’s fault, but they will continue to be blamed for all issues on their planes until things are resolved with the investigation. Not exactly fair for Boeing, but they kinda brought this on themselves.

It also has a chicken-egg problem. What if the indicators of talent or skill aren’t apparent because of abysmally poor living and educational conditions? The lack of opportunity in many developing countries is such that people will be less successful and appear less talented simply because their country has limited ways for them to demonstrate it.

Whenever I think of the good old days of the internet (like 2000-2009) I think of using stumbleupon and finding the best and most random stuff.

Because truthfully the president doesn’t make enough difference if Congress continues to be absolutely fucking useless.

I hate how true this is. Honestly we need to have a better strategy for the legislature than we do now. Assuming that it will go the same way as the president or ignoring it because it isn’t one of the “big” elections is why every dem in the last 20 years has gotten roadblocked in moving forward any real progressive policy.

I am normally really protective with my data but I don’t get the outrage here. If the data is all about how you use the app and the report relates to things relevant to usage that are interesting and is sent just to you,I don’t see the harm. It’s not broadcast to the world and isn’t sharing a bunch of sensitive information (as far as I know). It just seems like a fun way to reflect on the year.

I use Pandora and I wish they did something like this. As much as pandora is all about data I would love to see a report on my music listening with some of their insights about music attributes included.
