Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

A collage of characters from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Link is napping and leaning on Epona while Sheik plays their harp. Above above them is a frame with a painting of Zelda. The frame is surrounded by enemies from the game. Atop the frame is Ganon leaning and smirking menacingly

Ive been passed over for many jobs (including a VP of internal tech at a major bank) simply because I was honest with my interviewers that AI systems dont actually work and we need to be careful before we implement them.

My PhD is in AI. They opted to hire con artists with business degrees instead.

This image is a meme using characters from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine to express a strong opinion on labor strikes within the video game industry. The first character asks if game developers should strike. The second character responds that all exploited workers should strike. The first asks if this is true even if it disrupts the industry. The second emphasizes that it should happen especially if it causes disruption.

Yeah, if you look online you'll see there are "safety" groups looking to recruit YouTubers.

People have fallen for the grift include
- SciShow
- Kurzgesagt
- Kyle Hill
- Professor Dave Explains
- Adam Conover

in addition to Hank Green and others I probably haven't seen

"What exactly do you expect Carney to do / not do?"

A thread of 50 specific items (with links, and not in any particular order), a large fraction of which are in line with warning signs we pointed out early on and were told to be quiet, wait and see, or trust his 4D chess acumen.

Are you expecting a conservative to understand a joke that isn't just "being mean to someone" in disguise

Tweet by Jatin @jatinkmalik The reason why RAM has become four times more expensive is that a huge amount of RAM that has not yet been produced was purchased with non-existent money to be installed in GPUs that also have not yet been produced, in order to place them in data centers that have not yet been built, powered by infrastructure that may never appear, to satisfy demand that does not actually exist and to obtain profit that is mathematically impossible

Wish I could internalize this
brightwanderer I think a lot about how we as a culture have turned "forever" into the only acceptable definition of success. Like... if you open a coffee shop and run it for a while and it makes you happy but then stuff gets too expensive and stressful and you want to do something else so you close it, it's a "failed" business. If you write a book or two, then decide that you don't actually want to keep doing that, you're a "failed" writer. If you marry someone, and that marriage is good for a while, and then stops working and you get divorced, it's a "failed" marriage. The only acceptable "win condition" is "you keep doing that thing forever". A friendship that lasts for a few years but then its time is done and you move on is considered less valuable or not a "real" friendship. A hobby that you do for a while and then are done with is a "phase" - or, alternatively, a "pity" that you don't do that thing any more. A fandom is "dying" because people have had a lot of fun with it but are now moving on to other things. I just think that something can be good, and also end, and that thing was still good. And it's okay to be sad that it ended, too. But the idea that anything that ends is automatically less than this hypothetical eternal state of success... I don't think that's doing us any good at all.
