    "The Trump administration’s constant use of AI art reflects its own brute force attack on American democracy. It’s not just that its aesthetics are useful for Trump, its entire mode of being is useful for how his administration has governed so far"

      The AI Slop Presidency
      from @mjgault
      AI-generated outrage bait is the perfect artistic medium for a president who rules by trying to overwhelm the system.

    The idea of reshoring high-tech manufacturing isn't bad but it has to be done in a coherent and strategic way. Here is where Apple components are currently made. This is not coming back to the US overnight and probably not ever

    Here I explain why the idea that we are going to suddenly make iPhones in the U.S. is pure fantasy and if Apple WERE to do that it would come after several years of deep pain. The iPhone is perhaps the most global product that has ever existed: https://www.404media.co/a-us-made-iphone-is-pure-fantasy/

    Meanwhile, Apple's automation efforts are not going that well and there are still millions of human beings who work on it. Reshoring think tank suggests American workers in the same job make ~10x what a similar worker in Vietnam makes

    It's not clear that Americans can even build the types of factories needed to make something like the iPhone. TSMC had to import workers from Taiwan on special visas to build its factory in Arizona. Half of the workers there are Taiwanese. Foxconn's factory in Wisconsin never opened

    We are testing Ghost's ActivityPub beta integration for 404 Media! We're really excited about the future of the decentralized internet, we're stoked that Ghost is leading the way, and we're proud to be one of its first adopters. You can follow us @index

    Right now things seem pretty buggy but it's obviously very early. Looking forward to messing around with it and making the product better

    A team of archivists has recreated the pre-Trump CDC website as a live, easy-to-navigate website that should be indexed by Google. The team is hosting it in Europe. Cool project that is sadly necessary:
