The original Jim Crow was a disabled Black performer named Jim Cuff, but his act was quickly appropriated by white performers. So much of American culture at that point was an imitation of England. Minstrelsy was one of the first American things to be exported culturally. Our chief export: racism.

The evolution of “fixing the outsourced teams’ code”
A study has found that AI 'workslop', where coworkers use AI and their colleagues have to spend time fixing it, is taking over workplaces. Workers said that they thought of their colleagues who filed low-quality AI work as "less creative, capable, and reliable."
