Huh, I wonder why GOP senators and henchmen will not abandon Trump? Oh wait, he ran a massive blackmail operation for decades with his buddy Jeff.

The pope's AI encyclical was good reading and reminds us to center human dignity, compassion, etc. Lots of ethics to explore with regard to AI and related cultural phenomena.

Petard much?

How many windshields is this gonna take?

Supply is a problem and I agree about existing density-blocking laws. However this is not an either/or situation. Market effects on pricing are aggregate, not annectdotal. Taking private equity out of the market would certainly lower demand. Plenty of housing are sitting empty or underoccupied right now because of speculation.

Close the lid, buddy. You gave your only good ideas to a stranger and they made you obsolete.

This cover has a strong omage to the Second Foundation cover, by Michael Whelan.

Came here to say it. Glad to find it said. Everyone's rights are threatened by this.

I like KeePassXC and SyncThing for my own use. I am not sure that I am ready to apply a no-llm purity test if a dev is using a model appropriately. If the code becomes obfuscated somehow, that would be another matter. In the longer term I hope FOSS devs do not come to rely on paid cloud models or favor code quantity over quality.

I had a mild case about five years ago and did self-guided gradual exposure therapy. (I do not react outside of bowel cramps.) That worked for me in about 2 months, but I think that approach would be high risk for anyone with severe reactions. I have it again as of three weeks ago.

They may want to sell it to their friends to train a medical AI model.

That picture looks like a tobacco field, which is a dangerous crop to pick. Americans would quit immediately if forced to pick their own.

Seriously. Why are chemicals absurd? Answer: They are not absurd. They are arranged and tuned to your relations with your surroundings. They are sensory organs. Ignoring your senses is a choice I guess, especially when they are badly calibrated or misinformed by fake inputs (social media, rage bait, w/e)

Separated at birth?

I can see having a single node in the whole machine, but one per mix makes me think this photo is doctored. Then again an esp32 is pretty damn cheap.

They could add tremendous focal points for debate / discussion, but I would rather have them own only their topics than own the whole social graph. I would not trust any org to own the social graph, so yes Fedi. I would really like govs to secure my digital rights via zero knowledge proofs of things like citizenship, age, etc.. Give me a way to reveal only what a particular service needs to know.

Weird headline that omits the stated reason for the halted talks, i.e. Israeli ceasefire violations in Lebanon and Gaza.

Yeah same. The young know nothing but apps.

"protection"

... until Israel honors the ceasefire in Lebanon and Gaza. Many headlines omit the stated reason for halted talks.
