@lain All that's missing is "On The Art of 'Rithmatic."

@ntnsndr Mine and 95% of people's. We don't want DAOs, NFTs, or "AI Agents" in our tech, or in our orgs.

@ntnsndr 95% prefer human management to rule-by-chatbot...who woulda thunk it? 🤯

Personally, it feels like we're doing alright with our committees of humans approach - an option oddly not represented on your poll. I'm surprised even 5% would want a DAO or an LLM to get involved.

@ntnsndr Imagine the degree of brainrot a person has to have to apologize to a piece of software. Absolutely deranged.

"It’s easy to throw stones if you think about the job displacement and ecological destruction caused by this pointless technology. But such black-and-white, not-wanting-billionaires-to-get-richer thinking is, quite frankly, cruel. You can’t just measure the value of something in terms of “whether or not it makes everything worse for everyone.” The world is much more complicated than that."

The idiots are in charge...and they've taken over the schools. GenAI is a scourge, and anyone pushing it in an institutional setting should be shown the door immediately.

Frankly glad I don't have kids, because if I did I'd be homeschooling them for sure, between this and our govt's refusal to adequately ventilate schools and classrooms.

@derek score!

@ntnsndr Trust me bro, it's different this time! 😂

@cwebber I really thought the clip-art comic style was gonna catch-on after GYWO got popular, but David is really the only one that seems to have really make use of that particular "medium".

You've heard of POSIWID? Meet POPIWID: the Purpose Of a Party Is What It Does.

"Oops! Accidentally paid our CEO $6 million a year"

@derek As always, no solution without simply reducing consumption. We don't do that and we're just rearranging deck chairs on the Titantic.

What's the opposite of a silver lining?

"They argue that rewilding productive farmland or forestry in industrialised nations that have low levels of biodiversity may do more harm than good on a planetary scale.

"Exploratory analysis by the team suggests that reclaiming typical UK cropland for nature may be five times more damaging for global biodiversity than the benefit it provides local species, due to the displacement of production to more biodiverse regions."

@kaia Logging sports are dope. One of the benefits of living in a rural area is getting to go see them live at the community college.

@kaia And if you think this is cool, check out Springboard event.

@cwebber @puppygirlhornypost2
I'd assume LLM generated text, and they probably have a number of different boilerplate posts for different demographics (or at least they would if I were running this scam 😤). It would be easy enough to look for trans flags or they/them pronouns (or conservative hashtags and American flags) in profiles and sort people into their probable demographics that way, to better tailor the messaging.

Our org has been getting some pretty tailored phishing emails too 😕

This was #Caturday in New Orleans.

Duffel Blog gets a 10/10 for this headline 🤣

@Mitsu I live around a bunch and they've never attacked anything (except each other). Flap your arms around if they give you any trouble and they'll flee like overgrown chickens. You got this.
