I understand that the entire point of a strike is to inconvenience people - if nobody knows or minds that you’re striking, it’s not a very effective labor action!
But can I just say that for me, personally, this is the worst possible time to be deprived of my silly little coffee drinks. 😭

"But when the team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20% slower when using AI than when working without it. Researchers were stunned. “No one expected that outcome. We didn’t even really consider a slowdown as a possibility.”

She’s 100% right and she absolutely SHOULD say it!!
(Also I am very heartened by the applause - I think ‘fuck offffff’ is a much more common attitude towards AI than techbros would like us to believe.)

Just noticed that a student had the same birthday as my mother…exactly 50 years later.
I thought I was inured to seeing birthdates in the 2000s, but for whatever reason, this one is hitting me like a sack of wet mice.💀

Josephine THINKS she's a ranger, but irl she's scared to be outside. High charisma, medium intelligence, NO wisdom: our kitten is a lore bard.
Sif, the Elder Statescat, was a classic rogue: absolutely invisible unless she wanted you to see her. 🖤

Wrong. There is a third pill. And it's being a true hater. I will never ever use AI or "learn how to use it" and will say it sucks forever.
There are basically only two positions in the debate about AI.
1. I’ve barely invested any time in learning how to use it effectively. AI sucks.
2. I’ve invested in learning how to use this tool. Holy cow, it’s transformational.
Position #1 has lower barriers to entry.
