nothing quite like trying to explain an interest of yours to someone and partway through realizing it's WAY more complex than you thought and prolly warrants a multi-part series of in-depth explainer videos, but now you're already committed and basically have to deliver an impromptu thesis defense 💀

say what you will about the myriad valid concerns with current LLMs but I personally will never get over the fact that Aaron Swartz was prosecuted to his literal death for downloading JSTOR and then a decade later, they downloaded & ingested the entire world and our IP laws just went ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

there is no such thing as "age verification."
All "age verification" is actually "identity verification."
You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper.
But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware.
Period.

hate how the houseplant industry at large just assumes you won't be able to take care of your plants long-term, and will just throw them out and replace them in a few months tops :/
all the affordable supplies end up being almost exclusively for small plants, bc they expect yours won't mature !!

Happy Pride Month. If you're a gay man, please remember your power. People often think that gay men are innately fashionable, which means if you wear some stupid shit for long enough, straight people, including homophobes, will copy you and then you can laugh at them.

Massachusetts is now the first state to certify a rideshare driver union after granting Lyft and Uber drivers' collective bargaining rights.
This is the largest new private-sector union in over 85 years.
70,000 workers are now represented by the App Drivers Union.

google is NOT slick putting their damn AI ads first in the roll, and then making them short enough that you'll never get a 'next' or 'skip' button
must pad their analytics like crazy being able to say everyone watches the WHOLE ad EVERY time, and I'm sure nobody's presenting that with an asterisk

"Looking back now, it’s clear that the desire to undo the Civil Rights Era — and even restore the Confederacy to a place of honor — never disappeared. It was sometimes set to the side and reshaped, but they kept the fire burning with unwavering attention."
The Confederacy rises again
Undoing the 1960s isn't enough. They're even taking aim at the 1860s.

A federal judge in San Francisco is having trouble seating a jury in Elon Musk’s upcoming class action trial, reportedly due to "hate" toward the billionaire.
From a pool of 93, only 9 jurors were selected after questioning about if they could put aside opinions about Musk.

maybe I was the last to know and this won't be as helpful as I might imagine, but it turns out it's usually not worth it to press your tofu!!
you can brine it for ~15min or just freeze and thaw it (or both!) and you'll accomplish the same goal but more effectively and with less mess
