The concept gets a thorough workout in the very readable book, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Was...
Great work here by the knitting nannas #auspol
"Babies with COVID-19 develop more serious disease than those with RSV, US data reveal."
• Hospitalised children under 2 with COVID-19 had higher severe illness risk than RSV
• Ventilators: 39% of COVID ICU babies vs 16% with RSV
• Deaths: 2.9% COVID vs 0.4% RSV among hospitalised infants
Over 160 schoolgirls are dead. Anthropic and Palantir executives must immediately testify and tell the public whether their AI is responsible.
didn't see "instead of the US providing interceptors to Ukraine to shoot down Iranian drones, they're buying Ukrainian interceptors to shoot down Iranian drones themselves" coming
Girls school 'double tap' bombing, with AI target selection. It is indeed hard not to think about, in addition to the horrific child murdering aspect.
He better be wearing a suit when he asks.
A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.
Nothing says social cohesion like segregating children based on wealth and religion from primary school.
This will be seen as the vindictive trash it really is, eventually.

We relocated to Western Australia for a school term in Jan and thought we’d make ourselves useful by covering some local shitfuckery with help from local talent, so we’re stoked to have folksinger, writer, educator and all-round WA legend Lucy Peach guest-hosting our latest episode! ✨
Periodic reminder that a tactical nuclear weapon is a nuclear weapon.
Thread: Each week I run a simulation of Australia’s main electricity grid using rescaled generation data to show that it can get very close to 100% renewable electricity with 24GW/120GWh of storage (5 hrs at av demand)
Results:
Last week: 100% RE
Last 236 weeks: 98.7% RE (1/5)
Collective punishment punishes a group of people for actions they did not commit. It is illegal under the Fourth Geneva Convention (Article 33) because international law requires individual responsibility, not punishment of civilians or communities for another person’s acts.
Here's me. 'Stop pretending to be dumb: the Iran War is about Greater Israel, not “liberation”'
He has a point though, you cannot continue war criming, stealing land *and* take the UN seriously.
Pretty sure that's not what we're looking for from a welfare check.
Anderson Cooper: “So it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?”
Answer: “Yes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing.” #HousingFirst #UrbanTruth
Inpex originally reported just 4 tonnes of benzene, a chemical classified by the WHO as a class 1 carcinogen —
Other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) linked with health risks, including toluene, were also drastically revised upward.

I’m sure they’ll face a jail sentence for this. (Sarcasm)
I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to
So Anthropic, not known for its ethical boundaries, said no to automated killing and secret military mass surveillance, which was too much for Trump. Can we agree now that the US is not sharing our values and we should decouple from the mass surveillance automated killing team?
Actually, I like that so much I'm going to the typing pool for some fair copy.
For a major masthead, their knowledge of historic precedent is jaw-dropping.
Iran is educating too many girls?
We're no more than a few hours away from the next phase of digital propaganda: unverified videos of "liberated people celebrating" will go viral. Many of these videos will later be revealed to have predated the illegal war, or be entirely unrelated to current events
Upshot: verify before amplifying
There’s always a post…
