NY is having a bad flu season. More hospitalizations last week than any week on record.

Health authorities are encouraging everyone aged 6mo+ to get the flu vax (it's not too late).

Find a provider here: on.nyc.gov/getvaccinated. You can filter for sites where there's no cost for the uninsured.

What if we did everything twice and it cost more money and destroyed the environment and economy also?
The AI boom has created a new type of work: fixing botched AI. Designers are being hired to remake wonky AI art. Writers are asked to make ChatGPT’s writing sound more human. Even software developers are tasked with fixing buggy vibe coding.

This is the long tail of failing to finish reconstruction, and it has been a long time coming. But also, a lot of (mostly) men who cannot handle negative human emotions have managed to make it absolutely everyone else's problem.

Well this is bad. Google is indexing ChatGPT conversations exposing sensitive user data

I tried a few quick searches. I found someone's chat where I can see their api key

I found some building their resume. Their name, email and phone numbers are exposed.

10/10 no notes
Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.

But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.

See you soon, NYC.

You cannot "just a little fascism, as a treat"
No, you cannot accept fascism for just black people and think you can go on your merry IPOC way. No, you cannot strip trans people of rights and then attend your little LBG parties. No, you cannot enjoy religious freedom and sanctioned Islamophobia simultaneously.

Kiss my ass.

You wanna know how stupid racism is?

Our country is currently crippling its own food supply lines, all in the name of racism.

And the people doing are so blinded by their stupidity they didn't stop to think of the consequences.
