Have an opinion you cowards. Your silence on issues you know matter have consequences. You might push others out into the storm so you can test the waters of acceptability. But leaders lead.

How about an algorithm that shows people what they're interested in. Engagement is a bad metric. I engage with mosquitoes.
🚨 NEW: Nikita Bier says that when the new X algorithm launches in the next few weeks there will be no technical ability to do keyword suppression or manual down ranking. The new algorithm will serve what users interact with and want to see.

Reminder: The Democrats could collectively feed the homeless if they committed only $25 each per year. They don't.

I think storytelling works because it creates frameworks you can relate to in your own unique way. No one would have watched a film about the Vietcong defeating the US. Storytellers really need to stop forcing their own interpretations upon the messages they were chosen to

There is evidence to suggest that Aboriginal firestick farming (burning down entire forests to scavenge the the kill) may have contributed to the eradication of said forests. There are charcoal deposits and lake beds in the interior that lend to this theory, as well as the

James Cameron responds to criticisms about his use of 3D and high frame rate in ‘AVATAR: FIRE AND ASH’ “I think $2.3 billion says you might be wrong on that. Well, that’s the argument from authority. But the argument from artistic is: I happen to like it, and it’s my movie.”

I hope they train an LLM on pre 2023 texts so we can finally have an AI free from AI
