I'm sickened that the government voted CETA through at 1am last night. It's an anti-people, pro-corporation deal that allows Canadian investment companies to sue us, the Irish people. So a Canadian company can buy up housing & sue the Irish state if we introduce rent controls. #Speirgorm #Speirgorm

These two stories are somehow connected. Apparently, if you lobby tirelessly for more pollution & ecological wreckage, that’s exactly what you get.

I regret to inform you, after my 2 pre-work wanks, that I'm back to resisting.
I know I've been told otherwise but I always feel like my horny-posting makes me sound like an incel. You could say I am developing exciting new sexual neuroses.

Coffee thoughts:
Ireland is a polity where you can go and visit a Minister in a constituency office on a weekend to ask for help filling in a form.
The distance to/from officeholders is effectively zero.
But the distance for most people from *power* can be (invisible to them) huge.

Judge Kerr said he accepted that this was not a terrorist case but that the pipe bombs had been left to "cause fear and distress and in order to achieve a sectarian aim of stopping the GAA using public pitches".
Pipe bombs not terrorism, holding signs in support of Palestine Action however, is.

Instead of listening to the science & working with farmers to transition to sustainable stocking levels the Commission & Irish government have decided to usher farmers further down a ruinous path. We can't face into another Nitrates Derogation circus in 2 yrs time. Now is the time to turn the page.

This is how the Irish government will try and sell mandatory online ID to the public;
"Do you think your privacy is more important than protecting children online? Why don't you want to keep kids safe from online predators?"
As if there is a binary choice, your privacy or child safety.

Mr O’Donovan said the Public Services Card “floundered because some interest groups outside of the House, interested more in privacy than other issues, got their way”. Funny way to characterise something which the independent regulator found illegal, imposing a €550,000 fine on the state.

Well sure, it must be awful hard to find evidence of collision when all that evidence was diligently shredded, burned, buried, locked-up, or otherwise made unobtainable.

This is a good example of why beginners to strength training get discouraged.
As a beginner, basically *all* of your strength gains are neurological: learning how and when to fire as many muscle fibers together as possible.
Almost none is hypertrophy, gaining muscle mass, for a while.

Every facet of generative AI has made my professional life worse, without question, but THIS specific aspect has been driving me NUTS.
Clients, who have made me toil for weeks over indescribably small details, are now approving & producing in-house commercial artwork that looks like a fever dream.

I feel the clients now using GenAI to do stuff and going "good enough" when they used to nitpick at every last detail is due to them finding out all those nit picky changes take time and work they cant be bothered to put in.
