She’s absolutely correct, though. The energy and water costs are highly dependent on the climate, water availability, and condition of the grid.
We can’t shove AI back in the box, but doing what we can to reduce impact and plan for sustainability and scalability is key if we want to survive.

Ah, yes. The noble founding ideals of a company that branded itself after Saruman’s scrying stones which slowly corrupted him as he used them for spying, manipulation, and deceit across Middle Earth? That Palantir?
I, for one, am shocked. SHOCKED.

Very sad to hear of the passing of Andrea Gibson, whose poetry and courage of the heart inspired me deeply.
Go in peace.

It’s so wild watching Conservatives discover art is and has always been political. So above, so below.
The creators of Superman are literally the children of Jewish immigrants who fled Europe in the 1930’s.

My guy, we are five months into this administration.
Germany is shown in its 1937 borders. Camps color-coded by date of establishment as a main camp: blue for 1933–1937, gray for 1938–1939, red for 1940–1941, green for 1942, yellow for 1943–1944.
This isn’t even registering internment camps.

No,YOU haven’t comprehended it yet. It absolutely enables fascism.
This precedent puts immigrants, the poor, and people of color in harm’s way because they can’t afford years of court litigation. That’s the end goal.

Just learned about this AI Agent Creator from a client, and I'm kinda disgusted they'd use the magic of Stardew Valley against us this way. Techno-capitalism isn't cute.

This is a reminder to take a break. Take a moment to appreciate the beauty of this cold, snowy afternoon and have some tea.

One of the things I’m leaning into during this crisis is living every moment fully.
If any moment could be our last, I want to go knowing I loved my people and my life dearly.

There are already so many traditional mythic creatures that like to terrorize children into behaving. Krampus, obviously, but my favorite remains Iceland’s Yule Cat, who eats kids who refuse to wear their Christmas sweaters.
