it time for a thread of books I have read this year

...starting with Joyce's Ulysses. Outstanding, difficult, disorienting, impossible, inventive, too clever for its own good and funny as hell. This is an absolute must read for anyone who loves great literature.

Sharon: hey do you think fawning over and elevating right wing "intellectuals" might have been bad?

Helen: actually the wokes are to blame
The answer is no, it's not the job of journalists to never criticise the left in case it drives Joe Lonsdale to be more sexist. You could just as easily argue that leftwing over-reach caused that and it would be better if it had been inhibited by more scrutiny. Reality is more complex than either.

I hate to say it but there is no more chocolate in the house

What strikes me over and over again about the reality we are currently creating with so-called “generative AI” is that it’s always pitched as saving human time and effort. But this is only true if you are a parasitic grifter. For anyone with principles, anyone who cares about reality
I mean we are absolutely in a place now where the only solution to this information disorder is for everyone to constantly evaluate the source of information. Never trust a chatbot, but also don't believe a video unless you know and trust where it comes from.

Unfortunately... that's a lot of work.

8000 Artikel über zu viel "Wokeness" an den deutschen Unis; vornehmes Schweigen dazu, dass diese Unis gerade im Rahmen einer harten Austeritätspolitik abgewickelt werden.

Die 8000 Artikel sind diskursive austerität übrigens
