A69 : comment un éditorialiste se fait remettre à sa place en 2 min.

Howdy! A City on Mars (by @zachweinersmith.bsky.social & I) comes out in paperback late July. Now that it'll be cheaper, it's a great time to mention to my academic friends what a great book this would be for your class or for a Common Reading book! :D We cover a broad range of topics - (1/n)

'Meredith,' some guys ask, 'why won't you shove AI into Signal?' Because we love privacy, and we love you, and this shit is predictable and unacceptable. Use Signal ❤️

@zachweinersmith.bsky.social SMBC is in the big oil business, I knew it!

"Can't you step back and let the professionals just run it, confident that they won't kill the golden goose? Empirically, mostly no, you can't. Actually the success rate of control changes, for well loved products, is abysmal." another thoughtful @apenwarr.ca banger apenwarr.ca/log/20250530

A lot of people say generative AI shouldn't infringe on copyright. These researchers actually tried to do it. The result: an 8 terabyte dataset of text that's openly licensed or in the public domain & 7 B parameter model that performs as well as Meta's Llama 7B www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Hacked some Javascript, forced the feature flag for xchat on, and verified my assumptions - Twitter's got the ability to recover private key material for their encrypted DMs, even ignoring the complete lack of any MITM or metadata protection: mjg59.dreamwidth.org/71646.html

I usually get where big tech is coming from but this is just malicious tracking. If you're an engineer and you're asked to implement something like this, it's time to whistleblow. I hope the IE DPA will look into it. Anyway, Local Network Access (github.com/explainers-b...) can't come soon enough.

Is red meat bad for you? New meta study of 44 studies finds it depends on the sponsor. If the sponsor was impartial, most studies find it's bad for you. If the sponsor was the red meat industry, most studies are structured to find no problems. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40379522/

📣 « Ce n’est pas au Président de la République de dire s’il y a un génocide, c’est aux historiens », a déclaré hier le Président 🇫🇷Emmanuel Macron. 🧵Voici brièvement pourquoi cette affirmation est juridiquement - et moralement - erronée. 1/6 👇

Cet article parle d'individus dénigrés, ignorés ; massivement exploités & mis à mort dans une indifférence quasi totale, ce qui est déjà rare. Mais il le fait en plus avec beaucoup de rigueur. Je le recommande chaudement. Merci à la journaliste @hortensechauvin.bsky.social et à @reporterre.net !

all of our top business super geniuses are learnin' stuff!

so i've been honing my approach and i've landed on the optimal way to interact with cybertruck drivers: give them an enthusiastic thumbs up first, before dramatically turning it upside down and scowling. did it this morning and watched the light leave a man's eyes. very powerful

I don't remember the last time I was this emotionally invested

"The best way to help bees? Don’t become a beekeeper like I did." Please be aware that beekeeping (bee farming) is a disaster for wild bees and other pollinators. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

La communication autour de l'impact environnemental du chien domestique passe aussi mal auprès du grand public que pour le chat. Et pourtant, les animaux domestiques ou commensaux de l'homme ont bien une influence négative sur l'environnement. La faute à qui ? A l'homme, ne l'oublions pas.
