Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our t...

Pride is a 6/10 first act welded to a 10/10 second act that means you sort of forget none of the songs work and just get dragged along by momentum and emotion. Also, fuck the Labour party's failure on trans rights.

the City of Boise's increasingly aggressive campaign against the state's repeated attempt to ban pride flags flown by cities is extremely funny

This Thursday, SpaceX insiders will be released from their first post-IPO stock lockup and can cash out early. As I've been saying, this has all the hallmarks of a Ponzi scheme.

My son was wearing a "Vote Reform" t-shirt and an "I love Nigel" baseball hat. He's been spat at, abused, slapped around the head and told he's a brainless twat. God knows what's going to happen to him once he gets out of the house...

In the 1950s we had 700 different chemicals in our food Today we have over 10,000 in our food In Europe, they only have 700 still today. Kelloggs makes the safer Canadian version and the American version. Two different options, same manufacturer. Americans have been sold out sadly.

We just dropped off our dog at the vet for routine vaccines, but the way my kids were sobbing and refusing to leave, you'd think they'd been listening to RFK Jr.'s podcast or something

Remember he did not want to pay tribute to the American soldiers lying in rest in Normandy because they were 'losers'. Filthy, evil, heinous piece of shit.

Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.

America! I only sent this out TWELVE DAYS AGO! If you really want a king, we have a lot of royals in Europe who could do the job with style, with grace, and without fucking TREASON!

Dear America. If you really want a monarch, Europe has 'spares'. They appear to all be decent young men and women, with older siblings. All would make better kings for you than your current god emperor. Though, and no disrespect to Harry, Gabriel, Alexia, or Isabella, so would Donald Duck.

With all the shitstalgia, this popped up. If you have 1 1/2 hr this is fascinating. How TVS in the south east looked back on its time as the ITV franchisee. And it as a good news service does not hold back on the nasty, and some of it was. youtu.be/fEQGuTXZYXU?...

What a repulsive man. I had eye problems. Everything from routine cataract surgery and laser work for retinopathy in both eyes, to a vitrectomy. Some of the surgeons and nurses didn't have flawless English. But as they were busy saving my eyesight, it would have seemed churlish to whine about it...

Before 1460, #Edinburgh this area was a boggy marsh with the Tummel Burn. James III created the Nor’ Loch, which became a stinking dump. Drained in 1820 because you could smell the city 15 miles away (Auld Reekie) that historic burn still flows completely hidden underground today! #scotland #history

To expand on this a little, there are basically three situations: 1) GC complains about trans staff member, company does not know they are trans, no document exists that can prove they're trans, basically Don't Ask, Don't Tell. GC can try to sue, but it's basically unenforceable.

Tom Roberts@tpgroberts.bsky.social · 9h ago

I think the actual answer is that companies are going to keep quiet because they're now stuck between two potentially exposing situations: 1) Lax enforcement - civil lawsuit by GCs. 2) Challenge trans/potentially trans staff - potential criminal prosecution for outing trans status.
