Had to login on a Saturday and had a meltdown how's your day?

***That being said, as someone who has lost weight more than once for various reasons, that's as far as I think is appropriate to comment. Some weight loss is problematic, but some is not.

AHHHHHHHH SHE'S BEAUTIFUL 😍😍😍😍😍

Firstly, a note that the lighting in this photo (probably intentionally) is making the loss look more stark than it really is, but regardless, I think the actual worry for me is not "is this person healthy" but rather "was this public person pressured to do this?"

Is there someone dressed up like Shakespeare in the background? 😯

Mostly because I wonder if these laws will be applied the way this user claims. I feel like I would have heard about this much earlier rather than after some had already passed. Are the fears overstated? I admit I have not had the time to read the legislation today. 🤔

Hmm yes I had been wondering if parts or the whole post was generated based on a few key tells, but I hadn't read to the bottom of the README though to see that. It would definitely be good for some corroboration on the details.

Since having a coffee, I'm a little more dubious >>

Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

"Every app on your device gets to query a system-level API that returns your age bracket in real time. This isn't age verification at the point of accessing restricted content. This is a persistent age-broadcasting service baked into the [OS] itself, queryable by every installed application."

I had no idea some US states are passing laws requiring OS's to collect users' ages on device setup amd then broadcast that to apps. No exemptions, even for FOSS.

I think people should read this. Was mass reported (hmmm by whom? 🤔) so here's the archive copy web.archive.org/web/20260313...

OF COURSE IT'S META

Alexander Kustov reposted Alexander Kustov @akoustov · 10h A quick recap of my last week on Bsky for those wondering what's up: Me: Agentic Al is already changing how we do research. People are doing amazing, if not disturbing, things with it. We need to wake up and figure this out. BTW, this post was written using Claude Code. Prof. Bender. Heresy! You don't deserve tenure. I pity your students. You should be replaced. Bluesky. That's right. Boo. You need to be fired immediately and die in pain. Also, your beard sucks. Me: OK, folks. My integrity aside, can we just admit that LLMs can be useful? People already use them. Prof. Bender. Nope. LLMs are useful for 1. Fraud 2. Plagiarism 3. Cognitive off-loading. That's it. Me: What about translation? My mom, for instance, finds it very useful for translating medical info. Prof. Bender. How dare you question me, the expert here? Today's mansplainer award goes to this misogynist prof who can't even write himself. Bluesky. Certified translator here! Have you considered that LLMs have costs and make mistakes? If you don't use a state-licensed interpreter, you're putting your mom in danger. That's so cruel! Me: But what if you're a refugee who needs to translate a legal notice on the spot? Is that acceptable? Bluesky. Nope. That's racist and ableist of you. Asylum seekers have a RIGHT to certified translators. Me: #AcademicTwitter. Anyway, here's how I'm trying to cure cancer using a $20/month subscription because my university can only subscribe to Copilot. 6 274 49 ili 2.1K 1

I just got diagnosed, and I'm trying out a low dose of long acting meds, and I'm not sure they help me focus too much, but I can actually get up out of bed the next morning now

This is just further evidence to me that no one knows what to do unless Sam Carter is around

Time to get serious about confronting the tidal wave of misinformation and denial paid for by the fossil fuel industry. The renewable industry is now big business- it needs to build a comms and public affairs apparatus that matches the other side and do a better job partnering with allies

I really wish that my colleagues in NLP who are getting all worked up about the one post from this thread that escaped containment had enough curiosity to look at the context it was from, this this part:

Well, another stab to the heart. 😔 *Sigh*

Screenshot of a Tweet by @TheChiefNerd inclusing an interview with Sam Altman. The text in the Tweet says: SAM ALTMAN: “We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter.”

The whole "AI" industry is just based on the hope that they can deskill people fast enough that they'll have to rent back cognitive support systems. Forever.

It's like Uber. Just that they don't try to break existing transportation infrastructures but your brain.

The save post button on this app is perfectly positioned for me to accidentally hit it without realising it. Sorry to everyone for that I guess.

Sometimes I do it while I fall asleep which is even worse

My friend told me it's one of her favourite books, and I just bought it, I'm going in totally blind and I get the feeling it's going to rip my soul in half

Omg I have a pair of shoes that would match this look PERFECTLY

The radar installation in Qatar that was destroyed by Iran was a strategic level asset.

You're probably picturing a big radar dish. The AN/FPS-132 is more of a massive, multistory concrete building that looks like a cut pyramid. A major civil engineering project. There was ONE in the Middle East.

hot damn you know the numbers are bad when they're going to court so that people don't know them
