Birds but they get spookier each time. 🎃👻

Enter if you dare...🚪
A black background decorated with gold illustrations of branches, stars, swords, ravens, and tiny ghost shapes. In the centre, bold text reads: “BIRDS BUT THEY GET SPOOKIER EACH TIME.” Two ravens perch on bare branches at the bottom, with candles glowing beside them.

This reminds me of this comic, that David Revoy just created recently: framapiaf.org/@davidrevoy/...
A comic strip in four panels: 1. A bird's-eye view of a giant amphora the size of a building with closed eyes and a closed mouth engraved on it. Using scaffolding, a community of wizards climbed up and are throwing all their books into it, to fill its content. > Wizards: All our grimoires for the Amphora of Great Intelligence! 2. A ground level view at the bottom of the giant amphora. This time, the wizards bring tree trunks, cut down nearby trees, and throw them into a large fire to boil the giant amphora. > Wizards: All our forests for the Amphora of Great Intelligence! 3. A gathering of all the wizards below the imposing amphora which has now opened its glowing eyes and mouth slightly. The crowd of wizards at its feet applauds: > Wizards: Amphora of Great Intelligence, our world is dying, share your knowledge with us! 4. Same shot, as the amphora responds with joyful and amused eyes. The wizards are confused by the answer... > Artificial Intelligence: According to geologists, you should eat at least one small rock per day. > Wizards: ... ... ...

This is not caused primarily by "screen time".

It's been caused by the mass eradication of third places for young people in basically every city over the past three decades - and a society that's hostile to the concept of teens socialising in public spaces.

Oh yeah, because this won't in any way shape or form lead to people attacking delivery persons, Uber drivers etc. FFS, the image alone is meant to instil fear. That is guaranteed to lead to attacks.

Labour's new pledge "actively inciting violence to gain votes"
Screenshot of an official Prime Minister post deliberately stoking fear and hate against migrants with a shadowy figure, reminiscent of old far right campaigns, and saying: @10DowningStreet We're taking action to stop migrants working illegally as food delivery drivers. DELIVERED BY WHO? Our new agreement means the government will share asylum accommodation locations with Deliveroo, Just Eat, and Uber Eats. So they'll know if riders are staying there and can take action. PLAN FOR CHANGE ALT Home Office

The good thing about replacing humans with AI is that humans, annoyingly, need a functioning planet to live on. So if we get rid of them, we can be a lot more efficient at running the AI servers.

If you thought the PM’s speech was punchy, his foreword to the immigration white paper says high net migration has done “incalculable damage” to the country.

That is a serious shift in tone for a Labour government/party.

A tweet by Mike Primavera altered to read “My neighbor told me Afghanistan keeps eating his empires so I asked how many empires he has and he said he just enters a period of decline and invades Afghanistan afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding dying empires to Afghanistan and then Sir Arthur Barrett started crying.” The original tweet reads “My neighbor told me coyotes keep eating his outdoor cats so I asked how many cats he has and he said he just goes to the shelter and gets a new cat afterwards so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding shelter cats to coyotes and then his daughter started crying.”

My new paper describes why the “business ontology” is a fallacy, and how the business-centered technocratic approach to digital service delivery made agencies like USDS uniquely vulnerable to takeover under a malicious regime. journals.library.wustl.edu/pollib/artic...
1. The goals of public bureaucracy are usually vague. For example, while the USDS was ostensibly created to "improve digital services," there is no singular metric (like profit) that the service could fall back on to point to improvement. This is ubiquitous across all public bureaucracies. For example, if the goal of the library A Service as Easy as Ordering Takeout 45 is to provide access to materials, how do we judge that we have succeeded? If it is to increase literacy, how do we know that it is the impact of the library? 2. No government, library, school, or other public institution could possibly attain every metric mandated by the public and usually must choose a few. For example, the USDS chose "efficiency" over almost any other metric. When choosing tech-nology, libraries cannot possibly weigh every single metric that could be important to their patrons. Generally, libraries must weigh the metrics of efficiency, cost, robustness, effectiveness, privacy, and other metrics and choose a few based on their judgment. 3. The primary reward of public bureaucracy is adherence to professional norms rather than profit. This means that incentives are limited, but derived pleasure from work is usually higher due to the professional's feeling of purpose. 4. Public bureaucracy solves significantly more difficult problems than the private sector, and considering the two as equal creates an intense misalignment. For example, "improving literacy" is significantly more complicated than "selling more books to line Jeff Bezos's pockets." "Ending homelessness" is more complicated than "buving real estate putting people first is hard to do in a government that, ultimately, has the power to command people and even send them to prison. A business may put people first because businesses compete with each other in order to attract customers, but the government competes with nobody. And cutting red tape may be possible in a business firm that can tell whether it is doing a good job by looking at its sales and profits, but cutting it in a government agency is much harder because (ordinarily) government agencies deal with neither sales nor profits.

The whole #MyanmarEarthquake rupture in one interferogram! This is three consecutive wide swath frames of ALOS-2 data, provided by JAXA through agreement with NASA. The line-of-sight (LOS) is ~perpendicular to fault strike, so most of what you see is vertical motion at bends and steps of the fault.
