Dudes rock

Shortly after that standoff, Curtis Evans stood directly in front of the gate with an American flag. The 65-year-old Evanston resident heard about the first protest on social media and came to represent “the ideals that our country stands for.” He said tear gas and pepper balls hurt, but “five minutes later, you’re fine.”

Are you mad at me? @bradys.bsky .... 10h
I have been a social media manager for 10
years. If you are upset with a company I BEG
you to write a physical letter and put it in a
mailbox. 10000 social media comments are
a meaningless annoyance that executives
brush off. A single letter can send a
company into a panic.

So RFK Jr's HHS released a video on Twitter/X saying to the public one thing about public health, without consulting anyone at CDC, about vaccine schedules/vaccination in kids and pregnant people

And then, when asked for it in writing, HHS presented a totally different story.

This is fine meme with a dog in a little hat with a cup of coffee surrounded by flames in his apartment.

Monarez:

Meeting one: "Commit to firing scientists, or resign"

Meeting two: "Pre-commit to signing off on each of the upcoming ACIP recs... he just wanted blanket approval" for vax changes, or resign.

He also asked her to meet with Siri (sp?) who was campaigning to get rid of the polio vaccine.

Online safety is more important than ever right now, and most people give away their location online unknowingly.

This is a health literacy nightmare

#medlibs 📚

One work day, her task was to enter details on chemotherapy options for bladder cancer, which haunted her because she wasn’t an expert on the subject.

“I pictured a person sitting in their car finding out that they have bladder cancer and googling what I’m editing,” she said.

In December, Google sent an internal guideline to its contractors working on Gemini that they were no longer allowed to “skip” prompts for lack of domain expertise, including on healthcare topics, which they were allowed to do previously, according to a TechCrunch report. Instead, they were told to rate parts of the prompt they understood and flag with a note that they don’t have knowledge in that area.

Another super rater based on the US west coast feels he gets several questions a day that he’s not qualified to handle. Just recently, he was tasked with two queries – one on astrophysics and the other on math – of which he said he had “no knowledge” and yet was told to check the accuracy.

Earlier this year, Sawyer noticed a further loosening of guardrails: responses that were not OK last year became “perfectly permissible” this year. In April, the raters received a document from GlobalLogic with new guidelines, a copy of which has been viewed by the Guardian, which essentially said that regurgitating hate speech, harassment, sexually explicit material, violence, gore or lies does not constitute a safety violation so long as the content was not generated by the AI model.

Oh, hi, #UglyDogs*!
Are we doomscrolling again?
You realize the world will stay just as bad even without you looking at it, right?

How about we calm down, take a break and post something silly for a change?

I think all of you deserve this.

Calm down first:
