Surprised what’s forgotten in a year, cus like only a year ago he was scabbing but prominent vas who were vocal about supporting the strikes are now working with him again in the indie space Hopefully at least means his stance on unions turned around

The very first two people you can see on Jacob's following list are people who have retweeted stuff about the strike in the last month alone, are you fucking high? bsky.app/profile/flvt...

A few months back, I started reaching out to freelance localization talent from across publishing about working conditions. In my latest for @animenewsnetwork.com, I share my findings and explore steps the industry could take to improve their talents' lives. Thank you to everyone who spoke with me

Following Jan Mitsuko Cash's call for higher translator rates at the American Manga Awards, Coop Bicknell investigates whether you really can survive in the manga localization business.

This is what a lot of people don't seem to realise about Rowling. It's not just mean comments on Twitter. It's not even just donations to regressive political parties. She *actively bankrolls* the entire transphobic lobby in the UK. Laws have been changed by her. She is monstrous.

If you need to give people a reason not to support Harry Potter anymore, JK Rowling is actively stripping queer spaces away from vulnerable students who need them. All of the money from her books goes to this.

what jk rowling has done to queer students in the uk

(it's Bad)

as you may know if you follow british politics, there is a piece of statutory guidance called KCSIE: keeping children safe in education. teachers are legally required to read part one of KCSIE every year. 

at my secondary school, like many others in the UK, we have a LGBTQ club/GSA. this club is ran by ally or queer teachers and is supposed to be an explicit safe space for students to use preferred names and pronouns.

however, this term, we were told that part of KCSIE this year involves "formal requests to socially transition" leading to a safeguarding process and parental intervention. we can no longer tell our previous safe queer adults our preferred names because they could lose their job and potentially their liscense to teach if it was found out that they didn't follow the reporting process when necessary.

if you're still a part of the harry potter fandom, you are FUNDING THIS. it's paid for from jk rowling's pockets and you're only making them bigger by giving her traction. it's not too late to leave and take a stand

i get that sleeping with a subordinate and a spy are bad enough that you have to resign. i guess i just wish that being the largest funder of open white supremacy in the world was at least equivalently bad for business.

You know how absolutely evil and immoral fascist MAGA republicans are? They voted today to cut nearly $60B in veteran disability benefits on Veteran’s Day. That’s their cruel response to the voters who chose progressive change and the blue Tsunami. Vote them all TF out forever.

Your takeaway from this post should not be "it took this guy 3 hours to fix," it should be "the support network for this fix was not around because the engineers were laid off for higher profits." AI is, and has always been, a labour issue, and discussion must be framed around that foundation.

took me 3 hours but I figured out the “URP culling shadowcasters behind the camera” issue House House cites in their disclosure. This culls immediately when the object is off-camera, but modifying the culling params with a custom frustrum is straightforward

As another friend has unfortunately fallen victim to a round of phishing attacks I remind all as someone who worked in the IT industry for 10 years: Never click links. Not even for sites you recognize or people you know Always manually verify. Yes A L W A Y S

Saying this as a general public warning, especially for YouTube Channel owners, DO NOT TRUST EMAILS LIKE THIS!!! I foolishly believed it because I received a real copyright claim a few days prior, now both my email and YouTube channel are highjacked.

To add a bit of levity to tonight's news, Every studio's GenAI disclosure these days after they're caught:

My YouTube channel has been hacked, I'd super appreciate anyone who can to report it or get Youtube's attention. I'm doing everything I can on my end.

Could someone make a video game about etiquette and decorum at orchestras and symphonies, so that way when gamers go to orchestras and symphonies, they don't act like complete obnoxious assholes who thinkthey're hanging out on a discord call with their friends when they attend?

you can just break him into as many pieces as you want. you can make him wear a barrel with straps. these people have forgotten they amass this obscene wealth thanks to the tolerance of their neighbors. you can make him an Example of what happens when you fuck those selfsame neighbors

Thanks to Icepick, we know that people were using ChatGPT, Claude, *and* Grok at the highest levels. Because of the way people frequently interact with LLMs, those logs often contain an explicit roadmap into the user’s thinking, intent, and state of mind. Don’t leave that shit on the table!

Do I know anyone who has connections to the folks in Congress who are going to be writing subpoenas? If I do, can y’all tell those folks to MAKE SURE THEY ASK FOR LLM LOGS? Because those are going to be a fucking gold mine

The thing is, writing quick code if you don’t care about tech debt has always been possible. But in a pre-genai world, people understood why it isn’t sustainable for big projects We’re just constantly seeing things happen that we already knew were bad, except standards don’t matter anymore
