It's 1 week until Shavuot, the Jewish holiday commanding us to eat cheesecake and ice cream. Just in case you needed something to look forward to.

Was just thinking of writing something about why panic over transgender athletes serves as the perfect on-ramp to racism, namely because a discussion about "inherent advantages" fuses dominant beliefs about biology, essentialism, and merit

Apparently this needs spelling out: If you see a philosopher use the term "bullshit" in regards to LLM's or GPT-type "AI", we're probably not using it in the colloquial sense of "fake," but rather in accord w/ the specific sense of "not concerned with truth or falsity," as coined by Harry Frankfurt.

Luddites weren't anti-tech. They were against technology being used by the capitalist class to capture wealth at the expense of the worker. I am a Luddite, and a tech enthusiast. They're not in opposition. I want technology that makes MY life better, not that sells my life piecemeal to corps.

In addition to this, Luddites were also protesting against child labour, inflation of food prices, erosion of labour rights, excessive military spending, etc. Essentially, a system that sought to deprive them of health and power to benefit a wealthy few. Seems pretty relatable!

I was homeless and living in a shelter in 2019 there was a pavilion that set up three days a week that signed up folks for free cellphones, and very low cost smartphones (like $5 and $5-$10 a month data plans), if you had a SNAP card. Which the shelter helped you get if you don’t have it already.

Perhaps I’m an idiot, but I’ve got a very hard time seeing any AI offering that isn’t highly fungible. As in “less than a day’s work to swap over to a competitor’s offering.”

The “we don’t need PMs, just hire more engineers” mindset tech execs seem to have these days is both stupid and short-sighted. Engineers are not good at PM work and they don’t enjoy it, so they’re not motivated to bother learning - especially when “glue work” isn’t rewarded come review time. 😡 1/

This is EA attempting to implement a “soft layoff” by forcing people back into the office under penalty of termination. In an industry that showed that it can operate while 100% remote, forcing people who you hired on a remote basis to come into the office is unacceptable.
