So "lawmakers will outlaw use of 31 meat-related names as part of efforts to help livestock farmers in food supply markets"... just when health, climate & environment scientists are stressing the urgency of helping more livestock farmers OUT of food supply markets?
And what a silly, pointless move!
Considering the extent to which these AI companies are subsidised, enabling them to keep their prices as low as are, I’m convinced a price hike is a certainty.
Completely agree that the future for LLM’s is local.
This is brilliant.
The interviews with Zack Polanski conducted by news media presenters regarding the recent by-election win clearly demonstrate the level of disgust these people have for progressive politics.
Despite the interviews being a frustrating watch, it's a sign that the Greens are doing the right thing.

Brilliant track 👏🏻
The Legislation Upon winning a general election, a Reform government under Prime Minister Nigel Farage will: 1) Leave the ECHR 2.) Repeal the Human Rights Act and replace it with a British Bill of Rights. 3.) Pass The Illegal Migration (Mass Deportation) Bill: This Bill will: Create a legal duty to remove illegal migrants for the Home Secretary The Bill opens with a blunt obligation for the Home Secretary: "The Secretary of State shall ensure the removal from the United Kingdom of each person who does not have extant leave to remain and is not an Irish citizen or otherwise protected by regulations made under this Act." The following parts of the legislation are introduced on an emergency basis, with an in-built sunset clause after 5 years: Disapply the 1951 Refugee Convention, the UN Convention Against Torture, the Council of Europe Anti-Trafficking Convention (ECAT) Derogation is justified under the Vienna Convention doctrine of state of necessity: Britain faces a national emergency in which uncontrolled illegal migration undermines public order. These treaties will otherwise be used by activist judges to frustrate deportations, even after the repeals of the HRA and ECHR. Create Detention Power Without Hardial Singh Constraints This means illegal migrants can be detained until they are deported. Activist lawyers routinely use Hardial Singh to secure their client's bail, after which the client absconds. If you came to the UK illegally, you are ineligible for asylum. End of story All asylum claims will become inadmissible if made by a person within the Act's scope. If you came to the country illegally, you are ineligible for asylum in the UK. This strips the Home Office, the immigration tribunals and the higher courts of jurisdiction to even consider claims. A claim that cannot be considered cannot suspend removal and therefore, cannot delay a flight. Re-entering after deportation and destroying ID becomes a serious criminal offence Re-entry after deportation will be…
The Operational Plan We will create an enforcement unit called UK Deportation Command, including an Illegal Migrant Identification Centre - harnessing cutting edge data fusion A Reform government will create a cutting edge enforcement data centre to relentlessly identify and detain all illegal migrants in the UK. Using powers granted by the new legislation, it will automatically share data between the Home Office, NHS, HMRC, DVLA, banks and the police. It will power bulk warrants, including mandatory biometric capture during any police encounter. Each power addresses a failure mode observed over the past decade - for example, banks and GP surgeries unaware of a customer's status, or overstayers slipping through because a warrant covered only a single property. Secure Immigration Removal Centres (SIRC) will be built rapidly to detain up to 24,000 Detention capacity for up to 24,000 will be created within 18 months. The Home Office will build Secure Immigration Removal Centres. This will be modular accommodation built in remote parts of the country. Conditions are basic but not punitive: prefabricated two-person rooms, canteen catering, on-site medical suites. Robust perimeters and internal movement controls prevent escapes. This enables detention-on-arrest: no more bail. This capacity would allow for up to 24,000 illegal migrants to be deported per month. Initial Voluntary Return Window A six-month Assisted Voluntary Return window precedes large-scale raids. Illegal migrants will be offered a financial incentive to self-deport. An app will be launched to facilitate this. The Deportation Flights The Home Office will scale up charters to 5 flights per day. To guard against last-minute aircraft unserviceability, the RAF will keep one Voyager aircraft on six-hour 'hot-spare' readiness. If a commercial charter breaks down, detainees can still be flown out that night, preserving operational integrity. The legal reset will mean activist lawyers will no longer be able preven…
The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.
It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.
Bluesky idea: if people who didn't agree with you change their opinions so that they do agree with you, why not be happy that you are making progress - rather than complaining that they are "only just catching up"?
This was always going to happen.
Setting aside the obvious AI talking points, why would someone want to go see this?
It’s void of any environmental, societal or religious context. I’d feel nothing looking at this.
The fact a cause like this has to exist is absurd.
We associate names according to their function. It’s equivalent to claiming plastic chairs aren’t really chairs because they’re not made of wood like they historically have been.
Push back against animal food manufacturers policing language!
It's December 1st, which means that throughout the entire month you should reserve 5-10 minutes every day to read a fantastic article about HTML. ❤️🔥

I’m on the fence as to what language to try for this year’s Advent of Code 🤦🏻♂️
Did you get the opportunity to see him in Tramshed a little while ago? He and his band were fantastic!
A bit of a vulnerable post by me but we need your help to get us through what has been a more difficult period than 2020.
It would be really appreciated if you could read and share in your networks too 💛

I’ve experienced this change in perspective too.
Also, I think the advantage of the Bluesky F1 community being smaller is that it’s less enticing to bad faith actors that ignite toxicity within conversations.
There’s less going on here, but at least what’s here is interesting & in good faith.
Forever and always, trans rights are human rights.
They don't have a clue.
This is exactly what I feared would happen. I dread to think how many will follow.
I’ve just experienced my first foray into developing games with Godot and I really enjoyed it.
I’m excited to continue playing around with it 👨🏻💻

Some will use AI effectively. The majority won’t.
Parents give their kids iPads at nursery age. Folks eat unhealthily despite knowing what makes a healthy diet.
Only within a vacuous environment in which there is no historical nor current behavioural context to consider, would the take make sense, which is what makes it a deeply ignorant take.
Yes there are always outliers, but the point is that the majority stance will be to take the path of least resistance.
Whether it’s dating apps, eating habits, travelling, parenting, music streaming, exercise or voice command systems, we crave the extraction of any inconvenience that comes our way.
I’m finding the take of “If we all learn to use AI effectively, we’ll be able to counteract the loss of critical thinking that’s associated with using it” to be deeply ignorant.
Our history repeatedly tells us that we’re genetically wired to take the path of least resistance for ourselves.
I like Corbyn and Sultana. They’re ethically sound and have a real passion for the change the lower/middle classes want to see.
However, this project ain’t it. It’ll continue to struggle shaking off its initial woes and it’ll struggle to appeal to a younger demographic (as can be seen here).
I love this feature. Personal blogs are one of the great sources for info.
