As well-meaning publishers try to navigate the coming storm of state laws against diversity, I hope they'll consider Timothy Snyder's Rule #1 (from his slim book ON TYRANNY).

I can't believe we, as a species, invented bread and cheese - two things that require multiple, complicated steps as well as microbe husbandry - and this is the best political system we've got

Reminder that Aaron Swartz was facing 35 years in prison and financial devastation for trying to programmatically download and open the contents of JSTOR, which led to him taking his own life. But OpenAI is going to scrape all of academia and make billions by plagiarizing it.

New version of chatbot reaches level of function where it responds to all queries by making a little twisty-wrist gesture with pinched fingers and saying “But isn’t it more *complicated* than that?”

I am struggling to understand why we have prisons and jails if not for the Amazon executives who made the decision to purchase a Medicare advantage program and staff the hotline with people who had no medical training.

Amazon's One Care triages all patient phone calls through a call center staffed with people with no medical training or experience, and who have two weeks' training total. Patients have died. Gift link: wapo.st/4cq019f

Leaked documents reveal patient safety issues at Amazon’s One Medicalwapo.st After One Medical began using a call center staffed by contractors with minimal training, patients with urgent symptoms failed to receive immediate help.

Neoliberalism demands the appearance of normalcy and order. Masks represent disorder and a threat to the attempts to sweep covid and the necropolitics/eugenic worldview at play in allowing it to continue its spread and kill tens of thousands of Americans unabated. This is deeply authoritarian.

UPDATE: NY Governor Kathy Hochul said on CNN last night that she is considering a ban on masks. This is absolutely shameful! New York has suffered so much from COVID, and COVID is not over. We should be normalizing and depoliticizing masks, not banning them.

Can I talk to you right now? Is it important? I was just gonna tell you a story about hanging out with my dogs ofc

The death rate is down. It’s far more of a chronic disease and a horrific labor issue. It’s a novel virus we have no idea what it will do to your body in the future. Immunocompromised people can’t partake in society. Old people have terrible vaccination rates. Death rate is a shit talking point

Idk why I chose such a dense walking foot design but at least I finally feel like I'm making progress
