Different ways of living are possible, and are already taking place all over the world. They’re ways of love, kindness and joy. They’re quiet, humble, slow, small. They’re vital and restorative, regenerative and inclusive. I’m pledging to celebrate, support and amplify them. Will you join me?

Well guys, two days ago they started installing the tallest part of the Sagrada Familia, the cross at the top of its central tower.
After more than a century, it is going to be finished pretty soon.

Yesterday I watched The Choral film. It was moving, funny and sad. Although set during World War One, it made me think a lot about current day politics and the burdens people quietly carry through life. Recommend.

People are struggling. I want us to think about how we're going to help each other hang in there this winter. How are you going to support your friends, co-strugglers, and community as they push through this moment? How can you help people muddle through, materially and/or emotionally?

A fitting moment to bring back this old transit meme. However they’re powered—gas, hydrogen, electricity, or driverless—leaning on cars instead of investing in quality public transit is still a poor long-term strategy.

Are you using AI, as a professional? Check your insurance cover, because a lot of the big insurers are about to pull out of insuring it. Which means that if you let it write your stuff or control your operations, you are potentially personally liable for its errors...
“Insurers increasingly view AI models’ outputs as too unpredictable and opaque to insure, said Dennis Bertram, head of cyber insurance for Europe at Mosaic. “It’s too much of a black box.”

ChatGPT is racist
You think LLM-based chatbots can help students learn? Think again.
Take a few minutes to listen to Dr. @drtanksley.bsky.social clear explanation why this is very bad, harmful idea, especially for Black students.
