ICE snatching people off the streets is dramatic and infuriating yet even more insidious is what's happening in immigration courtrooms. Excellent podcast on the sad state of affairs spotify.link/A2RgkYGQBXb

AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

LLMs hallucinating nonexistent software packages with plausible names leads to a new malware vulnerability: "slopsquatting."
LLMs can't stop making up software dependencies and sabotaging everything

Just watched yesterday. Great movie. But yeah, a longer cut of what happened at the steakhouse was warranted
Enjoyed "Will and Harper," but the way it downplays how ugly their trip to a Texas steakhouse got feels really resonant this week. letterboxd.com/daveweigel/f...

FLYNNE: What they used to call reality shows?
NETHERTON: I don’t know. Why'd they stop calling them that?
F: Because it got to be all there is.
N: Yes. She’s descended from that. Reality TV. It merged w/politics & performance art.
