Ran into a super fun example of censorship while playing around with Apple’s on-device LLM.

The dichotomy of man 😂
I would genuinely like to understand how so many folks of that generation got so deluded. They’re _so_ sure they’re right that this genocide is a-okay.
As a developer, are there good libraries or APIs one can integrate for verifying proof of domain ownership? Feels like there would be incentive for making this dead simple.

A packed nighttime crowd at Fenway Park at The Lumineers concert as seen from the turf, with thousands of people visible by their blue light-up wristbands, creating a sea of twinkling illumination. The iconic Fenway Park sign is visible in the background, with a U.S. flag flying above it. The sky is dark, and the stadium seating is filled to capacity with glowing lights throughout.
Loved this view of Fenway Park at The Lumineers concert this weekend 🤩 Straight off my Leica Q3 #photography

The NYC primary race is bigger than local politics. It asks the question if the larger democratic base is as repulsed by progressivism as corporate Democrats and pundits try to will.
Anyways, did you know you don't have to have ever been inside NYC to phonebank for Zohran?

This Senate proposal advanced by Sen Cruz would cancel new and existing State laws on any aspect of tech use including civil rights, consumer protection, privacy, fraud, safety for kids, accessibility, and more. In short, we’d lose the few laws we have that ensure responsible AI use. #killthebill

J.K. Rowling is singularly motivated. The new Harry Potter series is a cash cow intended to fund anti-trans bigotry.
A creepy hand rising to reach a dead bird.
