consider the humble tree. it is a marvel of spontaneous organization. hundreds of twigs with no previous knowledge of each other, and with no central planning, grow downward to merge into branches. then those branches, with no exception, grow downward to merge into a single trunk

@colin_fraser I blame astronomers for calling it “a redshift of z” when the wavelength of light is multiplied by a factor of 1+z. Once that seeped into the culture, we were doomed.

hm, it does when only one search term is used, but the results are not restricted to only things that match the term. the "people i follow" filter has been applied here, and the results that don't include "copper" are from accounts i do not follow.

the results (in any tab) also no longer indicate the matched text in bold.

...actually, none of the results on the "latest" tab seem to be using the search terms strictly anymore. "top" still sort of works.

did they just change how search works on here again? seems like any filter with a colon in it ("from:," "filter:," etc.) no longer applies in the "latest" tab.

but useful idiots for the media cartels told me that Disney was going to fight Silicon Valley to the death. you're telling me all that business about "protecting artists" was propaganda to expand corporate power? thats so crazy
Behold! Three year agreement. 'Alongside the licensing agreement, Disney will become a major customer of OpenAI, using its APIs to build new products, tools, and experiences, including for Disney+, and deploying ChatGPT for its employees.'

The 3rd Agricultural Revolution ensured our generation would have so much food that we could safely feed the entire world for the first time in history, while ensuring future generations would have the opportunity to try tree barks and cannibalism.
Insects have declined by 75% in the past 50 years – and the consequences may soon be catastrophic. Rachel Carson warned the world back in 1963 She was ignored and pesticide industry continue to make billions wiping out Bees and insects Without Bees many food crops will vanish

“ethnic cleansing,” invented by people who were describing their own actions, is not a phrase you should be using unless you think specific ethnic groups being removed from a place makes that place cleaner.
Hot take but “ethnic cleansing” and “genocide” should obviously mean different things. It’s kind of insane they’re synonyms

fun fact i just made up: Big Boss learned the "repeat the last part of a sentence as a question" when he was just The Boss's apprentice on the Eastern Front during the war from Stalin himself. Stalin gave the young soldier a pat on the head.
