i don’t know why everyone doesn’t swear on the constitution…
Ok, everyone, what book is sacred enough to you to get sworn in on?
Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

i was accused of using Ai to write some web content for one of our academic programs. i said, sir, that copy has been there for three years if you’re just now looking at it. i wrote it, not ai. then he read it out loud and said, oh, this is actually pretty good. 🙄 at least read it before accusing.

if AI can steal everyone’s stuff to feed its generative junk, how is copyright law even a thing anymore?
and these people are making money off it. in fact, they’re charging everyone else in the form of electricity.
will i be sued for funding copyright infringement?

Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses.

is my adobe subscription going up cuz they lost all the government subs 😡
This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.
