People who don’t know how to make a PDF: “AI is inevitable.”
The disconnect between management and employee on AI usage is big. At the same time, CEOs are reporting they aren't seeing any revenue growth from AI.

CEOs Say AI Is Making Work More Efficient. Employees Tell a Different Story.
How much time workers say the technology saves them on the job is vastly different from what executives report.

honestly if you read between the lines of "petty dwarves" it's clear that the Sindar made up the concept to justify their genocide of them.

Trump is more focused on acquiring Greenland than on lowering costs for you and your family.

This is a huge crisis that we must do our part on by rejecting generative AI. The more it infiltrates our systems, the more fucked we are over time.
NVidia chief creep says resistance and scorn for AI have done a lot of harm. Good. Nice confirmation it's working. Keep it up. Although the main thing is this stuff is harmful crap so the mind and body tend to revolt against it automatically.

People jerk off in those things but ok send my kid to school in the Dangerous Jizzmobile. You are a psycho if you send your unattended child in a goddamn Waymo.
Bay Area parents are relying on robotaxis to transport their unaccompanied children. This practice breaks the rules imposed by Waymo, but parents have found they’re unlikely to get caught.
Parents are letting teens ride in Waymos without an adult. That poses a dilemma for the company

I appreciate the sentiment here, but it is only honest to say that the United States will never be the same again. The U.S. that led the world in scientific research in so many disciplines is done. It may be possible someday for some to be rebuilt, but why would any other country trust us again?
This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

I don't disagree with you... but the argument is slightly undermined that bluesky regularly turns the widget back off again without warning you.
Like, I went to check mine right now, and it was off again. Who knows for how long.

The last thing anyone needs is a new "platform" for microblogging. The whole point is we should be moving beyond silo'd platforms into an open social world. So my response to the launch of "W" as a competing platform to "X" is simply: "but Y, tho?"
