:( my mom fed a photo of my siblings and I to a genai to have it turned into a “Norman Rockwell painting”. Thankfully our faces aren’t in it but that really sucks

Alright, just thought of a funny display name for Christmas. I get to have it for the rest of the day at least.

My only criticism of this app so far is that it suffers from Facebook’s swipe issue where it is way too easy to fully swipe out of your feeds when leaving a post and lose your place. I’ve tried holding my phone at multiple angles to no avail

got lots of compliments from a bunch of old women on my lovely necklace today, and no one knew it was the amulet of kings from Todd Howard's The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

Merry Christmas! Please enjoy the opening to this Japanese Christmas concert special that I watch every year.

As far as I can tell, this has otherwise been scrubbed from the internet

A public database of ice, ice agents, DHS, etc. Has now been built and it's entirely outside of the US and US government reach.

After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.

Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.

Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.

I hope that all of you have a joyous holiday season surrounded by your family and loved ones*.

*Except for ICE. I hope no one talks to you or gives you a present and that you accidentally shit your pants while everyone tells you to go fuck yourself at the grocery store.

As an actual Religious Studies scholar, it is an insult to our field to describe anything this student wrote about gender as "Bible-based."

The University of Oklahoma has removed an instructor who was accused by a student of religious discrimination over a failing grade on a psychology paper in which she cited the Bible and argued that promoting a “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” https://cnn.it/4b6g3rd

I think it’s important to insist on recalling, at all available opportunities, that this was specifically an attack on a trans instructor over an assignment about gender. Neither of those details are incidental; they are the center of the story
If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career

heads up that bluesky doesnt show posts from other languages by default on your timeline, and its cutting you off from a lot of the community

go to bsky.app/settings/lan... and deselect any language from this setting, or else you might not see any of the new japanese users at all!

I took the office vacuum apart in July to do a deep clean and today on my last day they were still raving about how I’m a vacuum extraordinaire. So now I’m the vacuum guy also
I’m currently known as two epithets at work: overalls intern and cool scissors intern

Anyways I’m about to strap on some knee pads I keep in my car to do some work on the floor so I might be gaining a third one

What shocks me is how many professors, administrators and students who blithely use LLMs do not know this
Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

A lot of people I work with worked on weapons and it comes out on my birthday, but I can’t go to a group screening if it gets organized because I’ll be in New Jersey (I wouldn’t trade that for the world, but still)
