Once again it falls to the Greens to show some spine and make it clear that a consent granted under an inappropriate process will not be a consent once adults are back at the controls.
Nicola Willis is delulu if she thinks she's in any position to try and throw shade at the Greens #NZPol

Wikipedia's "List of stories set in a future now in the past" is quite possibly my favourite Wikipedia list. It's a list of science fiction where the setting was futuristic when they were created but now is not, and gives their predictions en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

The Ai industry is dying reskeet to make it die faster. 🙏🥰
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

TBH if you asked me to gender Monster's consumer base, I'd already guess it's predominantly a girl dinner.
Er. Drink.
Granted, some of the girls drinking Monster haven't realized they're girls yet.

You wake up, your email alerts you to a new Slow Boring, you read it with breakfast. You Like a Noah Smith post on the toilet. The Ezra Klein sermon in the Times seems fair. Hey, there's a new Atlantic article, but it's by Conor Friedersdorf, so you skip it. It's time for The Weeknight. All is well.

NEW: Chris Bishop used housing money to fund a bridge in his electorate his own Govt had killed off.
Officials were against the move and Labour say he shouldn’t have been anywhere near the decision.

This is grimly amusing. Bishop couldn't fulfil a campaign promise because of Simeon Brown's footpath fatwa, so he had to raid a Kāinga Ora fund. Maybe running transport policy as a culture war was a stupid and destructive thing to do in the first place, eh.

Question prompted at a business event which I may not get a chance to ask, so Bluesky, you’re up:
Are AI “agents” functionally just chatbots that are allowed to initiate actions? Is that the core of what Microsoft etc have been plowing money into for the past year?

In policy terms it’s an interestingly evil trajectory going from “we will stamp out antisemitism” to “we will confiscate jewellery off refugees”

This is, quite literally, the concluding chapter from years of vice signaling as politics. There is no better evidence for how putting Trump, a charlatan and moral void, at the center of our politics for a decade has resulted in the literal rotting of the soul and character this nation.

The pause is brief but brutal, a gasp of silence as his whole self-worth teeters.
"You are so goated." She replies.
"I am. I am goated, ain't I?"
This time there is no answer. There never is.
