Note:

Most who deny the holocaust did not answer that question in a way that is consistent with their estimation of the veracity of official holocaust history

They answered it in a way that is consistent with what they deem to be the best acceptable answer in their sociopolitical reality

I asked Claude Code to create an agent that downloads, transcribes, summarizes, translates and evaluates content for insertion into a knowledge base in Notion and it created a Python script that integrates with the OpenAI API for the evaluation step

I *love* the second paragraph of this post. The attitude behind is inspiring on multiple levels and can be applied to lots of other domains as well.This is what strategizing is: choosing a path, giving a damn, letting the story lead and trusting that cold calculus of market forces will follow etc
both @vercel.com and @cloudflare.social love to talk about pushing the web forward. atproto is, in my opinion, one of the most transformative web technologies since the invention of the web itself.

incentives are aligned against it but so was with open source. you can be a multiplier if you want to

Ik hield soms mijn telefoon in mijn hand bij korte ritjes in de buurt, niet om te appen of voor navigatie, gewoon als (slechte) gewoonte, keek er niet eens op. Er is een camera opgehangen die automatisch beboet: 3 x € 439 beboet tussen periode van ingebruikname en ontvangst van 1e boete per post
Pijnlijk voor Yesilgoz in de NRC:
"Ik durf te stellen dat aan de drie plagen die de verhouding burger-overheid de afgelopen jaren bedierven (gaswinning Groningen, toeslagen en overlast Schiphol) Yesilgöz’ boetebeleid kan worden toegevoegd."

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

Het echte verhaal, waarvan fragmenten al wel zijn gepubliceerd, is de achterkamertjesinvloed van de Sijthoff-kliek en dit soort clubs op campagne, formatie en besluitvorming.
Die tiepes die zo goed ‘ik run die toko’ kunnen zeggen en denken dat zij beter weten wat goed is voor een land dan u en ik.

Her last post was about being laid off from Teen Vogue. Terrible.
Heartbroken to hear of @sfdirewolf.bsky.social ‘s transition to be a crip anscestor AND feeling so honored to have been alive in the time as this brilliant human, and gotten to learn from her.

May her memory continue to always be a blessing.

Great thread
Like, how much of this "I talk to chatgpt 5 hours a day and it is teaching me to to become a god" is the result of a normal person glimpsing the abyss that is *literally* a billionaire's every single social interaction, and it fucking destroying them.

Ik zit er toch over te denken om een hond te nemen. Eentje die past in de stad. Met dat hybride werken tegenwoordig is er vrijwel altijd iemand thuis, en kan er ook overdag een wandeling gemaakt worden (naast ‘s ochtendshow en ‘s avonds. Hoevaak moet je een hond uitlaten?)
Goed idee? Tips welkom

Waarom zenden meerdere Nederlandse omroepen tegelijkertijd reality tv-programma’s uit over Amerikaanse grenscontroles?

Uh okee daar waren we op zich ook niet echt van plan te gaan lopen zoeken maar dankjewel I guess 👍👍
Het is verleidelijk het dwaze beleid van Donald Trump en andere radicaal-rechtse leiders af te doen als dom. Maar de oplossing ligt niet in de zogenaamde wijsheid van de financiële markten of AI.
