Fixed it for you.

LLMs like ChapGPT don't know anything. They don't have knowledge. So if you ask them anything you then have to properly check the answer. So you might as well just...start by...getting the answer yourself using proper research, save some time.

Jesus.

Good reminder

It has come to my attention that not nearly enough of you know about Bernd das Brot, the German children's program about a clinically depressed loaf of bread who enjoys studying his wallpaper and eating gruel and whose catchphrases include "my life is hell" and "I would like to leave this show."

Nice little 5K run just before supper.

This is a supremely awesome piece of work.

In the past ten years we made huge progress with these kinds of programs. Naturally they are being cut.

The current proposals that AI companies should be uniquely excluded from paying for other people’s IP and creative labour is effectively a state subsidy worth trillions of dollars, paid for by content creators and copyright holders.

A reminder that this is the same administration that was last week lecturing the UK about "free speech"

Way harsh, Ralph.

This is Ralph. His body composition is approximately 40% ear. But that does not mean he wants to listen to your podcast. 12/10 (IG: ralph_kd0821)

So any legit press in the White Press corps should deny him the microphone — walk out on this lying propaganda charade, and go do some shoe-leather reporting about him instead.

I have one group chat in which we ask "So, what's good today?" and replies include things like, "Well, the kitchen's clean," or "I heard a woodpecker on the way to the bus this morning." Which is very, very tiny, but it helps. May not work with casual acquaintances.

My racist HS physics teacher just put a photo of Snoop and Trump on his feed and my classmate posted a response that said "you wrote me up for listening to Snoop in your class in 1993 so fuck you and I think it's about time you know that your daughter stayed over at my house after prom"

kind of hard to unsee the "people who write for a living think the solution is more Words" thing

🚨BREAKING: Ninth Circuit AFFIRMS lower court decision striking down Arizona voter suppression law H.B. 2492 which imposed unconstitutional and burdensome proof of citizenship requirements. A big victory for our clients and the voters of Arizona. A stinging defeat for the RNC.

THEY'RE GOING TO ISSUE PERMANENT VISA BANS TO TRANS VISITORS TO THE US. This isn't just for athletes. The directive as stated applies to all visa applications made by trans folks and declare it material fraud to use a different gender marker on applications. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Cancelling @joyannreid.bsky.social means the door she held open for the next generation of Black voices will slam shut. Without her, the next her, won't get platformed by white media. That, of course, is why white media pushed her out. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

She bought her husband’s freedom from Buchenwald and escaped to Shanghai pregnant, where she rode out the war and eventually moved to NYC where she owned a landmark knitting shop in Queens and ate lots of dark chocolate. What an incredible life.

The deadline is midnight tonight!

Discussions this weekend made it clear that folks don't necessarily realize that our existing "scientific pipeline" of federal funding for basic research didn't just happen. The entire approach was deliberately designed to work this way, on purpose Meet Vannevar Bush

In Episode 25 we mentioned that the Assyrians and Babylonians used to produce clay diagrams of sheep's livers to teach divination with. We saw one this past weekend (shown on the left of the image here) along with several other omen and spell tablets!

“Two sources familiar with the matter, including a Trump administration official, tell Rolling Stone that the replies to the recent Musk OPM email have been flooded with pranks and, in the words of the Trump official, “very rude” emails listing fake, vulgar “accomplishments,”…
