Also reported by the Texas Tribune . Horrifying. I can’t imagine what it would do to a kid to spend 1st grade in a concentration camp eating moldy food, instead of in a safe loving home getting solid nutrition, I only hope they can recover.

Gofundme preparing to support them on release. Apparently one of the trumped-up reasons for holding them is they don’t have means of support? I didn’t see a more direct way to help get them out.

For me, it’s more that it’s a vivid image. I have felt that “immiseration” so it immediately resonates; I don’t need a metaphor. But when people who don’t know technology are gushing about the latest agentic process, I wonder if having a somewhat grotesque, embellished counter will be useful.

I clearly need to up my adblock game. But do y’all also use PeerTube, Nebula, Curiosity Stream? Happy to vote with dollars if there’s a good candidate.

Hadn’t heard “precaritized” either. Brings to mind some penultimate additions to pillow forts, though.

We may start to see people realize that “have the AI generate slop, humans will catch the mistakes” actually is different from “have humans generate robust code.”

I wonder how much of it was vibe coded. And how much the owners will have to give up because of the beach, if anything.

We can stop subsidizing fossil fuels and make EV purchasing affordable. We could even make public transit usable, if we spent $43M/hr on it.

For comparison, 50 minutes to cook 3 cups of white rice (v. 1 cup of white in the original). Similar for the mid/end sections, but seems like the 1st section it drew a lot more current, maybe just more heat for a larger volume of water during the soak.

Do we need new laws before impeachment?

I can’t tell if this was a “just because we wanted to” or a “court order” kind of handing over.

I don’t know the channel, but here’s a video titled “US and Israel intercept missiles over Iraq.” Sure is dystopian: a video of farmland with missiles launching from a distant city. No explanations. But it really brings home to me how countries and people are caught between other countries capricious decisions.

And how much power does it use?

But risking legal action or armed retaliation?

From the article:

At least seven states with a total of about 35 million registered voters have publicly reported the results of running their voter rolls through the system. Those searches have identified roughly 4,200 people — about 0.01% of registered voters — as noncitizens. This aligns with previous findings that noncitizens rarely register to vote.

And Ars published a piece about it — with AI hallucinated quotes attributed to the human maintainer. They have since retracted it.

I was having a discussion related to this with my team at work: some of them are letting through poorly-reviewed AI code, and I find myself trying to figure out which code has had real human consideration, and which is straight from the agents net. Everyone said they closely review and own all the agentic code, but I don’t really believe it.

I don’t get the appeal. Preparing to redirect to paid content? Just to feel cool?

Luckily it seems the humans still feel a need to divulge their antisocial behavior.

Plot twist: the server giving worldwide access to send people electrical stimulation was also implemented by Claude.

Cool use of AI for spelunking, though.

Sounds great. I can’t figure out what the status is. Working prototype? Manufacturing?
