You can drastically reduce your chances of getting sick by staying away from other sick people. Unfortunately they don't always identify themselves so you should stay away from everyone just to be safe

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Every facet of generative AI has made my professional life worse, without question, but THIS specific aspect has been driving me NUTS.
Clients, who have made me toil for weeks over indescribably small details, are now approving & producing in-house commercial artwork that looks like a fever dream.

I feel the clients now using GenAI to do stuff and going "good enough" when they used to nitpick at every last detail is due to them finding out all those nit picky changes take time and work they cant be bothered to put in.

An apt comparison; Minobe was part of wave of Leftist mayors and governors elected during the 60s in Japan. Still hated by many on the far right today, Minobe's three terms as governor of Tokyo were successful enough that the LDP adopted many of his policies on a national level. youtu.be/v35H_7qcZos

I’ve been trying and failing to figure out how to tweak the perspective in this 3D library I’m using… I -think- it’s something I can adjust with a “projection transformation matrix”, but I’m not smart enough to figure out how to create one that does what I’m looking for. The math is confusing. 8)
