It was confirmed yesterday that the centre left coalition won the election in Sweden As predicted, with the far right performing poorly, coverage has almost entirely vanished from international media

Aurelien Mondon@aurelmondon.com · last wk.

You may be relieved but spare a thought for so many editors in the mainstream media who were hoping to run hyping headlines about the far right winning in Sweden As always when SD is hyped and ends up crashing, I expect Swedish politics will drop off the radar as it's no longer sexy enough

As honoured as I am to see that The Times has picked up my Chagos article practically *word for word*, including my hard-gotten quotes, I’d prefer some credit — or for everyone to read my original FT piece! free link to read the evidently enviable article below (cheaper than a Times sub!) 🌴

Just checked with people who sit at Ghent University's board of governors: Fake News. Disciplinary proceedings against Nathan Cofnas are still ongoing. (Make of the other communication what you will)

Sunder Katwala (sundersays)@sundersays.bsky.social · 3w ago

Nathan Cofnas and the US Ambassador to Belgium say that the University of Ghent have now lifted his suspension, thanking the US government for supporting him (with threats of retaliation). The Ambassador says that Cofnas will be able to complete his one year appointment to March 2027.

I am grateful to Rector Petra De Sutter for allowing me to stay at Ghent University. I look forward to continuing to work on the project, “The Future of Liberalism,” for 60% of my working time for the remainder of my one-year postdoc. I wish to personally thank Ambassador @BillWhiteUSA . It was beyond my imagination that such a person would take an interest in the fate of a postdoc. The Ambassador responded with great support which helped to bring about a just outcome. Thank you, @USAmbToBelgium and @StateDept for defending American values. I am proud of my country.

AI and the amplification of academic content assetization

One positive thing out of these ridiculous Trump tariffs is that now I talk about the US continuously using Section 301 to force other countries to obey US copyright laws and people don't react like it's some crazy conspiracy theory A lot of game history in the global south is directly tied to that

I DO enjoy their work a lot and I strongly recommend it if you are into extremely erudite and yet entertaining explorations of magic, comics, Milton and many more. I am slowly reading the Last War in Albion.

I don’t post the Patreon link nearly as often as I probably should cause I hate doing promotion, but it’s been slowly sinking since Doctor Who wrapped, and that’s starting to become a real problem for our budget. If you enjoy my work, you support would be a big help. www.patreon.com/elizabethsan...

A ban on surveillance pricing—using people's private data to set prices—is already setting off the big retail and grocery companies, which bought Seattle Times banner ads and are sending mass texts to convince consumers it's in our best interest to let companies mine our data to decide what we pay.

Really good piece. "You used to be able to be poor in a city and still live in it." A city dies when its working people cannot afford living there.

Superb piece on the death of Dublin, killed by greed. It's not immigrants who wielded the blade; it's our own, developers and property owners obsessed with squeezing every penny of profit out of the city, on the backs of stressed, overworked people they've priced out of living in it #spéirġorm

I'm trembling while writing this: Kamaitachi no yoru—not the PC remake, not the iOS port, but the actual original SFC version—has been translated at last by ButThouMust, who graciously brought us an English patch for Otogirisou in the past. This is HISTORICAL.

I don't say this as often as I used to, so let's get it out there one more time: your new Tesla makes me vsicerally angry. It wasn't a good deal, and it's not the best EV you can buy, you're just as stupid and poorly-informed as you are amoral. I hope bad things happen to it and you.

Or look at customer service chatbots, which don't so much automate customer service labor as eliminate it and replace it with a system that performs the surface of customer service but not the substance.

Hello everyone! Many of you likely saw this image recently with the Apple TV+ 'Neuromancer' promotion. Some know, others don't, but this artwork is mine, created alongside actor & post-production artist Milton Menezes, as a personal project and a homage to the original Neuromancer romance
