The worst people you know are fighting lol. Expanding the scope of IP law to make AI even worse. NYT & other papers will bundle articles in ‘datasets’ and sell them. Probably through an offshore IP holding company which will create a ‘market’ which companies can point to in transfer pricing. The ‘ethical AI’ rhetoric is used because it makes people think of job loss.

With both the problem and the thing it represents: it kinda depends how I’m feeling at the time.

I think 4C is cute.

put in a copy of Wretched of the Earth in there, but idk if anyone took it because they took the thing down a week or two later.

Picked me up a printed copy of the muller report in one of these

I use the $3k Dolce & Gabbana stovetop coffeemaker

There’s this jail/asylum near me that got shut down in the 90s and then converted into a jail-themed luxury hotel, and I really wish I had the time to interview the older people in my life about it and put together some kind of art. I keep being the one to tell people it’s a hotel now and they don’t believe me until they look it up in the news. It’s not a secret or anything lol.

Isn’t all ‘comparative advantage’ stuff fake though?

E: Sorry, genuinely asking, not doing a bit.

Who could have predicted this?

Some games I like:

• Spirit Island - Co-op game that’s very complicated. You’re spirits working together in defending an island from colonizers. 1-4 players.

• Wingspan - A ‘euro-game’ where you add birds to your habitats to earn points. Competitive, but with only helpful interaction between players. 1-4 Players.

• The King Is Dead: Second Edition - A low-stakes ‘abstract strategy’ game that plays pretty quick. Players compete for influence between factions fighting for control of Britain. 2-4 Players.

• Paint Chip Poetry - Less of a game and more of a creative writing exercise. You combine paint chips to make poems responding to prompts. 1-6 Players.

• The Mind - Mini-game where you silently order cards numerically using telepathy. 1-30 Players.

• Tussie Mussie - Pocket-sized game about the meanings of flowers. 1-4 Players.

I’m like a deeply unserious person

Debt is a great book. Graeber’s lecture on it is an easy intro/summary. Link

Combat Liberalism is really short if that’s any help. Freedom is a Constant Struggle would be timely.

I wish I could find out for the first time again 🦀

Vaccinated?

She was easy on the eyes…

Weird, context matters, but yeah, weird. I’ve only heard “easy on the eyes” to refer to UI color schemes.
