As far as I know, Picard never used the ship's computer to auto-summarize Starfleet memos on new governance structures, performance metrics or budget cuts
I do not hate AI, at least not in principle. But I do hate that we got computers answering every question before we got Star Trek communism

Interactions on here are nice, but reading the story is way more helpful. According to my metrics, less than 0.01% of pageviews came from Bluesky
Could be weirdness in my tracker tho

I encourage you to start with aesthetics first, then move to questions about fit, silhouette, styling, quality, and such. Clothing is not like electronics — they are not standalone items you can compare across "objective" metrics. They are about aesthetics, so start there.

It’s possible we are facing a generational shift in reputation it’s also possible that numbered lists are yet another way that metrics are misapplied to promote financialization of the arts in the service of capital

Don’t allow centrists to change the terms of debate and the metrics of success.
Last week’s midterms saw victories for socialists and other progressives that will allow the Left to grow in the months and years to come.

When the mirror shows me a girl it’s lying. So I need metrics. Jaw width. Brow depth. Bone geometry. Girl weight. Metrics can’t lie.
To find the girl numbers we need to measure the best girls. Then we can define what kind of girl is worth being.

People expect that Latino vote would magically resemble the Black vote but it’s actually resembling the white vote— this is lowkey the problem with conflating race and ethnicity in these metrics…

Now, *learning* I think should often be for its own sake. A different conversation, but I loathe arguments that suggest academic fields can be validated by quantified output metrics.
I think cleverness should very rarely be for its own sake, if you know what I mean?
Like, be clever to some end! I love showing off when I think I’m being clever don’t get me wrong!
I’m perhaps just not sufficiently arrogant to think that it’s *enough* for me to be clever. It has to serve a point
