“The Verge found numerous other tech journalists named in the feature, as well, including former Verge editors Casey Newton and Joanna Stern, former Verge writer Monica Chin, Wired’s Lauren Goode, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman and Jason Schreier, the New York Times’ Kashmir Hill…”

here to complain about being tired again

SO tired
I had to sleep from 8-12 because I had a migraine
Then I worked and parented
I don’t think my body is happy with me
Imagine if worms in hats did drive apple-cars about though.
I’ve seen this movie crop up on the LEGEND channel and it is truly the stuff of LEGEND
Do not buy creeptech, do not wear creeptech, and do not tolerate the creeps who do.
I have had a migraine almost every day this week and frankly I’m a bit sick of it
This is a basic and crucial point for any discussion of LLMs’ use in teaching research or writing. Whether it can ape us, fool us, or get facts right or wrong is, in the end, irrelevant. The LLM is not the thinker we are trying to encourage; the LLM is not the writer that we are trying to improve.
Okay, I'm going to go out and eat food with my kids, but when I get back I would love to see a clutch of you in my inbox telling me all about your transcription projects that you need support with.
Okay?
Okay.
Email me the deets, beloveds, no pressure, but me and my team can help you! Promise!

This was wildly good folks - if epistemic injustice is even tangentially relevant to your research this is well worth watching (hopefully will share some more thought out thoughts later)

“If [wealthy, powerful people] can get us to accept that the future’s already settled, AI is already here, the end is already here, then we will create that for them. My most daring idea is to refuse.” — @tressiemcphd.bsky.social
The moon going from full moon to a red moon and starting to go back to a normal full moon, then my camera battery door fell off.
Here's my first edit on the March 3rd Lunar Eclipse. 15 moon shots, 1 foreground. Taken over a 3 hourish period.

I'm helping to raise money for Isaac - a Black trans kid seeking vital healthcare in England.
Isaac is lucky enough to have a very supportive family, but they have all been screwed time and time again by the NHS and UK authorities.
Any contribution will help!
Punishing people from the world’s worst conflict zones for using the only legal route to claim asylum, and forcing them to take dangerous routes instead. Reprehensible and counterproductive as usual.

create a massive cultural problem, then externalize the responsibility and cost onto friends and relatives
Meta is trash and no one should buy these surveillance/cop glasses.
Today is Sex Worker's Rights Day. Sex worker rights are human rights not just because we're humans just like you, but also any rights taken from us will be taken from you too.
Surveillance, police violence, debanking, censorship, we faced all of those for years before it turned on everyone else.
I had SUCH a blast running this session — thanks so much to everyone who came! If you couldn’t make it, the replay link is coming soon!
