Everyday I wake up grateful I made it through my early 20’s without going to war. I am one of such a small few of all human males who ever knew the privilege of peace

Comme chaque année pour le #11novembre, je remets cette excellente animation du front de l’ouest pendant la Première Guerre mondiale par carto1418.fr/ :
It seems likely future textbooks on AGI will have a caveat like "While not everyone agrees precisely on the date AGI emerged, [giant in the field] argues that it happened when..." and then they will say a date/event that has already happened

"a certain kind of environmentalist will tell you we have ten years to decarbonize and then defend a review process that uses seven of them."
AI literally helped make a vaccine that cures cancer and I still have high school friends telling me it’s bad bc midjourney steals drawings. Even if I was unambiguously pro IP that seems like a pretty reasonable trade off

“Just finished my degree. I think I’ll abstain from entering the workforce and undergo further training to prepare for a higher paying or more interesting career. Wait a minute, why aren’t people paying me lavishly? I’m spending 40 hours a week in the lab!!”

Whoever sold yall the bill of lies that returning to school for a graduate degree is akin to entering the work force rather than extending your pre-career training period ought to be sued

“Believe in science” mfs when our most robust empirical analyses tend to show labour unions reduce employment and total payroll
Haven’t gotten sick in almost 3 years but I just had that first swallow that let me know it’s coming and I’m worried it might straight up kill me

First time I’ve seen a whole audiobook with a cheap AI cover. While I’m not judging the book I am judging this version of it.

There is a lot bad w Weber's "Anti Fascist Economics" but a recurring theme is misattributing ideas to the people she doesn't like, and never using citations or references. Now, I probably dont understand the nuances of leftist in groups, but I havent written a book on them
It is very hard to support graduate student unions. You are already in an incredibly privileged position, often making $60+/hr, & getting paid for 20hrs/ week while often only working 2-3 to prep a lecture, and then maybe an 8 hour day of grading 2 or 3 times a sem for exams
