They're talking about "water based" cooking now. Cooking things in water instead of oils. It's soup. They're making soup.

Look what I came across on my #stetwalk, a stick library! The people who put this out also have a Little Free Library. The stick library is lower than the book library, making it easier for dogs to spot the sticks.

"We are exhausted." You're free to take the boot off our necks any time you want, nobody's forcing you to keep it there against your will, sorry if the squirming is a little uncomfortable underfoot but it's entirely in your power to stop any time you want; a luxury you do not afford your victims.

Nearly every time I read about 'the elites have done this, how dare they', I look up the person accusing the elite and discover - almost without fail - that they were privately educated and went to Oxbridge. It's a stuck record but it continues to be true.

These LLM bots have to be treated crtically, like any other piece of media, and are absolutely going to reflect the biases of their creators, only probably worse because they are just making up shit that sounds plausable.

Festival Review | @focuswales.bsky.social 25 "You always come away from FOCUS Wales thinking how on earth can they top that, yet every year the organisers find new ways to keep the festival growing. . . It's one of the best festivals out there right now." By @martyncoppack.bsky.social bit.ly/FW_25

Exclusive: Lawyers for Brockwell Park residents say the festival organisers are wrong to say they can press on with Mighty Hoopla... Finsbury Park residents are now looking at same approach... Victoria Park could follow. Going to be a summer-long clusterfuck. www.londoncentric.media/p/mighty-hoo...

The unbelievable condescension we’re already seeing today towards working class people- suggesting they don’t travel to Europe or their kids might not want to go to university and study in Europe- is quite something to behold.

The UK fishing industry employs 6,000 people and brings in revenue of about £1.1bn. The UK Hospitality industry employs about 13m people & had revenue of just under £100bn, yet somehow the wailing & gnashing of teeth is always about the fucking fish.

I find it really odd that there are so many stories about Grok's own "account" of its own programming issues. We all know that LLMs don't actually have privileged knowledge about their own programming, right? That they're just giving a "human-sounding plausible" answer to a prompt, right?

The top economics journal in the world nearly published an article that, to all appearances, is 100% bullshit. It claimed that AI accelerates scientific discovery. An MIT PhD student appears to have used generative AI to fabricate the whole thing, data and all.
