LONG RAMBLING EMOTIONAL THREAD:
It's World AIDS Day. Since the Administration has decided to keep it quiet, I'd like to share my introduction to AIDS.
I grew up in Seattle. My mom remarried a man who had a brother who was a King County Sheriff's Deputy. His name was Terry and he was gay. 1/x

A few thoughts on Christmas carols and songs.
Christmas runs from Dec 25th to Jan 5th. The ~four preceding weeks are Advent. It would be nice if the songs played on the radio reflected the current time period. None of this chaotic jumble of seasons.

In more AI bubble news, major insurers are declining to insure risks from AI chatbots & agents, saying AI models are too unpredictable & error-prone with no one clearly liable when things go wrong. Firms & universities better consider this in their rush to adopt AI.

Two years ago I had lunch with the dean of a department at one of Toronto’s major universities and she told me she had instructed all her profs teaching first-year classes to do exactly this. It sounded sensible and I wonder if it’s now more widely applied

If a worker is killed using manufacturing equipment, they don't just clean it up and get back to using it immediately. But that's what happens at road intersections.
