I feel so seen
I'm more talking about attacking @jewishsf.bsky.social as "an evil Zionist newspaper" when it's like one of the only major non-Ḥaredi Jewish community papers left that doesn't exclusively publish hasbara at this point

Some excellent replies in here
I’ve now had 3-4 exchanges with business profs who seem baffled that humanities profs are resisting their assertions that AI can teach our courses and AI can replicate our work.

They all seemed quite shocked that “you don’t matter and this machine will replace you” isn’t a winning sales pitch.

They're not ready to be on our streets. Someday - not yet.

"...a driverless Waymo vehicle, for reasons unknown, rolled into a patch of wet cement... and sank in."

"...the wet cement ought to have been better demarcated with barricades [but] a human driver would never, ever have made this mistake."
Waymo rolls toward San Francisco Airport — showdown brewing
With SFO moving to provide Waymo a permit to 'map' the roads, the battle between driverless car companies and drivers' unions will heat up

Unlike in the Hobbit movies, this one makes it fun to be back in Jackson's Middle Earth. I always liked Rohan in the movies, especially their theme music.

But overall War of the Rohirrim, this is a disappointment.

FML #2. This comic slaps so hard. Nothing has ever been so surreal - and yet so very, very real.

@kellysue.bsky.social, @davidlopez.bsky.social, Cris Peter, and @claytoncowles.bsky.social all absolutely on fire in this one

Sounds like they should complain to hotels about the poor labor conditions their fellow San Franciscans are dealing with.

I know it sounds like clickbait, but y'all... I tried this last year and it 100% works. I'll never make latkes without this trick again.
A chain of Bay Area chefs passed this trick down through a series of professional kitchens. It eventually made its way to our food columnist @alixwall.bsky.social — and it has forever altered the way she makes her latkes. Read on for the secret....

Like the titular undead spirit in “The Dybbuk,” which inhabits the body and mind of the film’s heroine, a band of young musicians took over and transformed the film itself at a screening of the 1937 Yiddish horror classic at the JCCSF on Dec. 11.

Here's my review!
