Ouch, touché

I’m glad people are finally paying attention to this.

At this point, I won’t even get into a Tesla. Nope. Sorry. I’ll wait for a different driver. I’ll walk. I’ll stay home. Not getting in.

When I answered the poll, I saw the 0% / 100% and immediately thought I was the first respondent. Then I saw the vote count.

I realize the poll is not scientific and the results are surely not strictly true — but as a measure of sentiment, well….

Thanks, how’d you like me to wash your windows?

Wow, not often I come across a Godspeed reference in the wild!

It’s exhausting, isn’t it?

The thing I notice about that video is they had that tarp all lined up and ready to go: <9 seconds from collapsed to covered, and the people with the tarp didn’t even seem to be in a hurry.

They fully expected something like this might happen, and they ran the demo anyway.

Whoever this demo was supposed to be for, whatever the audience’s level of expectations, there’s something here about the extraordinary pressure companies are under to cobble together the appearance of future-bending success at any cost.

tech is pivoting to humanoid robots!!

People who work at Thompson-Reuters are keenly aware, and are sharpening their pitchforks over this.

What that change looks like in Minnesota:

In Dec–Jan, roving kidnapping squads roared around the city, wearing masks and Bass-Pro DIY tactical costumes, smashing car windows and dragging random brown people straight out of their cars in broad daylight, •wanting• to be filmed and relishing the terror.

Now they go to some outer suburb that's less dense and has fewer eyes and execute a swift, well-organized raid to kidnap a whole roofing crew mid-job before anybody can arrive with a camera.

The Trump administration’s white nationalist ethnic cleansing project is in a dangerous new phase: “quiet and steady.”

They tried a shock and awe approach, and that crashed and burned in Minneapolis. It’s over…for now. But they haven't stopped kidnapping people. Instead, ICE and DHS are making their operations as invisible as they can, targeting people who were already on the edge of invisibility for all of us, and hoping we don't notice.

Abolish ICE. Gut DHS. End this terror.

Interesting finding. I would strongly caution against using this to assume that one can be sure a face is generated, but good heuristic to know.

And beyond detection: this is another finding that suggests gen AI has a normative, flattening character with potentially dangerous social effects.

ICYMI:
The July 7 JAMA has a great paper by Rodriguez, Fuerst, and Schrote, in which they evaluate the management of spontaneous abortion (miscarriage) before and after *Dobbs*. In short, after *Dobbs*, women are being told to suffer through it without medication more often, and when they are prescribed medication, they are given a less effective treatment than before.

The thing that distinguishes humans from all other life on the planet is not our power to drastically change our environment at large scales (cf beavers, diatoms fertilizing the Amazon, the Great Oxidation Event. Instead, it is our ability to be •aware• of the macroscopic effects of the changes we create — and thus to be •in denial• about them.

I therefore proposal that the date of the refusal to recognize this as the “Anthropocene” be the official start date of the Anthropocene.
