More #kakapo matings: Heather and Bluster-Murphy on Whenua Hou yesterday morning, and Kuia and Tamahou on Anchor this morning. Here's Kuia on her nest in 2019. She's of Fiordland descent, so has valuable genetics. #conservation #parrots #birds

The news about Harlequin translators getting fired en masse?
You should care about that. They're doing it there because they think nobody gives a shit about romance and so it's fine to experiment with it first.

Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

Unlike most apps these days, Scrivener does not use AI in any way. However, if you’re on a Mac, you may see an AI prompt.

Ok, but how are the robots going to feel when they find out ‘robot’ comes from the Czech word ‘robota’ which means “forced labor”??

Shy-Hulud was awake, so I gave them a sliver of mango, and that's the quickest (relatively speaking) I've ever seen them go for a snack. 💛
