Bullshit machines can definitely automate bullshitters output
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

I feel like being a tortoise would be pretty chill. Never have to move fast, eat as much salad as you want, be your own house. Sure there would be inconveniences, but also you don’t have to pay taxes

U.S. gangster president frees Honduras’s gangster ex-president, who was paid millions by cartel boss El Chapo and other traffickers…at Roger Stone’s behest? And also prepares to start a war against Venezuela’s gangster president who’s at most a minor drug-traffic player? Very fishy. And fascinating.

1/ The Russian army has to rely on modified civilian vehicles purchased with soldiers' own money, because military trucks are in such short supply. According to a Russian soldier-warblogger, units have to wait between 5 to 12 months to receive trucks. ⬇️

Looks like a scene from an apocalypse movie — the russians are entering the southern part of Pokrovsk under the cover of morning fog.

Tennant is so totally the guy who'd do it.
Actors can be nuts, man. A dude (André Tchaikowsky) left his skull to the Royal Shakespeare Company to play Yorick in future productions. No one felt comfortable doing it until David Tennant played Hamlet.

The mysterious black fungus from Chernobyl that may eat radiation
Mould found at the site of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster appears to be feeding off the radiation. Could we use it to shield space travellers from cosmic rays?

1/4 The Capcom Yashichi Origin
Japan's longest running TV drama was Mito Kōmon / 水戸黄門 (1969-2011). It was like an Edo period version of The A-Team where the travelling good guys would help the locals from corrupt officials and criminals. One of the main characters was Kazaguruma no Yashichi / 風車の弥七

The fire in Hong Kong is horrible and devastating. One thing I observe, in comparison to the Grenfell fire here, is that within three days, authorities have arrested 11 people, directors and top brass. I don't believe anyone, much less top brass, from Grenfell have faced charges, eight years later.
