Everyone can (and should) read @readlux.bsky.social online. I've yet to encounter a dull article. But I'm also here to inform you all that if you pay for a subscription you get to see some of the most fantastic magazine layouts that you can find anywhere.
Lux magazine two page spread showing the end of one article and the beginning of another in the "from the archives" section. Striking colours and images, beautiful typesetting. Two page spread from Lux magazine. The start of a feature article about makeup in prison. The typesetting is dynamic and interesting; decorative elements connect the opening paragraphs to the illustration on the facing page. Contents page of Lux magazine and facing page which bears the title of the editor's note for this issue and a very dramatic, richly-coloured photograph of a mushroom. Two page Lux magazine spread from an article on skateboarding in the West Bank. A photograph of a skateboarder doing a 180 backslide is duplicated and arrayed several times over a background photograph of a tear gas drone in a very blue sky.

A nice picture of me from a few weeks back. ☺️💖
A beautiful garden full of bushes, pots, and general greenery, with picnic blankets laid out in the foreground. A massive, very pink, flowering bougainvillea dominates the background. Keegan, in tan pants and a pale blue collared shirt, is kneeling down to pet a yellow cat.

A sticky note featuring a very goofy-looking pencil doodle of a bird. What kind of bird? A silly one. Big ol' body, little stick legs sticking out at crazy angles, a head that is mostly just one huge eyeball.

I've *been* saying for years that if you aren't careful you risk turning into this guy but for AI.
XKCD comic "Photoshops" (331) "My hobby: insisting that real-life objects are photoshopped." Two stick figures. One, a woman, is showing off a sword. The conversation reads: "This sabre is a 19th-century family heirloom." "It looks photoshopped." "Huh?" "Yeah, the reflections are all wrong. Definitely photoshopped."

Pretty sure this is a picture of the Sandfall Interactive team tucked away in the Curator's manor. (Even Monoco the dog is there!)

@expedition33.bsky.social that's cute :-)
Sciel from Clair Obcur: Expedition 33 standing in a dimly lit room, next to a picture of a group of people. It looks like a stylized photograph in an ornate gold frame. If you look closely, you can see a dog in the foreground.

This is a very fun chess book. I can never help but laugh at comments like these, which may say more about me than the book, but nonetheless...

A line of text that is true has – for the LLM – absolutely no different quality than one that is false. There is no link to reality, no sensor data or anchoring, there’s just the data one was trained on (that also doesn’t necessarily have any connection to reality). If using the term hallucination is useful to describe LLM output it is to illustrate the quality of all output. Everything an LLM generates is a hallucination, some just might accidentally be true.

NOT the point, but part of this guy's argument was that his firing "opened the door to speculation as to the nature of Barrett's conduct and cultivated the perception that Barrett must have done something reprehensible".
Part of the given evidence for this is a Reddit post by u/GiantPurplePen15.
Screenshot of a Reddit comment from GiantPurplePen15 (who has a Luigi profile picture). It reads: Getting fired from a high level position usually means there's concrete evidence against the person who was terminated.
