The fact that this STILL isn't on by default speaks volumes.
I see people saying

“I would use alt text but I keep forgetting!”

Thankfully, @bsky.app has a setting for that.

- Go to Settings
- Then Accessibility
- Toggle “Require alt text before posting” to the active setting.

Now Bluesky will remind you to add alt text to all of your posts.

Thanks so much for sharing this German version of the press release, which I hadn't seen yet. How interesting that the graph here makes more visually apparent what you have to squint to see in the original: that the "Black Death" dropoff clearly began before the traditional "beginning" date (1348).

There's just a certain depth and breadth that the humanities and social sciences bring to my current work in academic public health. Hard to explain it.

This is from a news report a few days ago about what is already the largest university in the country expanding to new offshoot in London! "The school will also heavily incorporate artificial intelligence and sustainability principles ...'It’s not an add-in, it’s part of the ethos'.”

Who invests in critical thinking and who invests in an AI chatbot to help you think will be really telling.
