Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.
I'm so tired of measles.

I'm also tired of people using needle shots on stories like this.

Show what measles looks like.

The criticism of "please don't use LLMs to contribute to my project" policies on the grounds that it's "unenforceable" is dumb. It's like asking someone to take off their shoes when they come inside. If someone expressly ignores a request like that, is it really _the request_ that's bad?

Whatever “ethical use” of AI you think you can come up with is constantly trumped by the evil shit it’s being used for on the daily. It’s simply not worth it.

At this juncture I’d like to point out:
* we’re on the brink of a golden age of medical healing
* there’s enough money in the world to solve every problem in the world
* a united approach could stop the climate crisis
But a small group of sociopaths seeking personal power are going to throw it away.

Darth Vader: And now your highness, we will learn the location of your rebel base.

Interrogation droid enters, but it's playing the Niamos Club Mix.

Princess Leia: *dancing* Oh yeah, this is my JAM!

Darth Vader: Shit, wrong droid.

It’s hard not to root for the asteroid some days
Asteroid 2024 YR4 has a small chance of hitting Earth in 2032, so astronomers are scrambling to observe it before it disappears from view in April. The latest data shows the chance of collision has hit a new high.

It’s good to feel panic as your read the news. At least you’re not feeling nothing.

Are any @oxide.computer customers hiring? While I'm great at wrangling heterogenous hardware, I wouldn't mind playing on easy mode for a while... By which I mean solving actual business problems rather than fighting hardware.

Do we really need AMZN and MSFT to operate nuclear fucking power plants, or could we perhaps just put the amazing automatic plagiarism and surveillance nightmare back in the box it came in?
