I really like how all the financial advice lately is simultaneously "you're about to be broke as hell so maybe you should make your holiday gifts" and "you stupid assholes are ruining the economy by not buying things you don't need"
stupid young people, stop buying a new phone every year if you don't want to be broke. wait no, not like that.

I was reading yet another of the claims that we're really close to AGI and it will be as smart or smarter than PhDs or Nobel Prize winners or whatever, and leaving aside the question of whether this is true or possible (no), there's no way they want this. They don't listen to existing experts.

Which MST3K movie was actually the best *movie*? Which one has the most non-ironic fans and defenders.
Danger: Diabolique comes to mind (though certainly not the best of the Diabolique films). This Island Earth as well, since they had to pick something a bit more palatable for the theatrical film.

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

Dear Chancellors:
I'm writing with regard to the President's Postdoctoral Fellowship Program (PPFP) and the program's associated faculty hiring incentive.
As you know, for more than 40 years, PPFP has provided postdoctoral research fellowships, professional development, and faculty mentoring to scholars in all fields whose research, teaching, and service advance the academic and research missions of the University of California.
Since 2003, UC campuses that hire current and former PPFP fellows into ladder-rank positions have been eligible for a hiring incentive funded by the University that provides support for newly hired fellows for five years. Since the creation of the incentive, more than $162 million has been invested by the University to support PPFP faculty hires. This commitment has enabled our campuses to successfully recruit and retain outstanding faculty across a range of disciplines.
Given the myriad challenges currently facing UC - including disruptions to billions of dollars in annual federal support, as well as uncertainty around the state budget- reasonable questions were raised in recent months about whether the University could maintain the commitment to current levels of incentive funding. After considering a recommendation to sunset the incentive program due to these significant fiscal constraints, I consulted with all of you as well as faculty and campus academic administrators and systemwide Academic Senate leadership.

As a dainty womanlady, my feminine energy is constantly on the wane thanks to my busy schedule of twirling and tittering. I need an energy drink that really gets me. And that’s why I drink FLRT, the only energy drink that reminds me with every sip that I’m a silly little gal.

This is really what companies want. They want us to be totally isolated from other people. And all our interactions to be mediated by their LLMs, in a way that literally edits and devalues what we know and say.

Something I hinged on to get to this what I describe: the Marxian fetishisation of artefacts is so complete in the case of AI that not only do we somehow conclude machines think, but we accept for them to think, speak, draw instead of us, while also thinking these are (expressions of) our thoughts.

“But if we talk only about dollars, we miss the real story. These campuses import curiosity and export capacity.”
Really lovely defense of higher education—focused on local colleges but applicable more broadly. Higher Ed is so crucial to economies, to people, to imaginations
