I really do think there should be laws that require AI generated code and content to be declared as such when sold as products or services and it should be up to customers to decide whether they want it or not.

General understanding of ADHD. It's not perfect by any stretch, but I wouldn't have got diagnosed in 1986 and I wouldn't have meds to help me to actually function. I know because I was there and I wasn't diagnosed (quite the opposite, I was blamed).

Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.

TFW you were up late working on a design and you go to bed super happy with it then wake up hating it 😭

Big shout out to all the people who were mad at me for not wanting them to vote labour cause they were “certain labour will be better on trans rights than the tories“, they couldn’t have done it (segregation) without you

Spent some time sitting on the decking with my binoculars looking at the moon, and the pleiades, which - due to their relatively low altitude plus the thin blanket of cloud in the sky - were twinkling like little rainbow fairy lights 🫠

As I was saying..

The effects are going to be felt far outside the AI industry itself, too. The AI products people are relying on behind the scenes to create their own products and services, especially businesses built around them, are quickly going to find their bills exceed their profits and die a horrible death.

If you ever feel like you're just a monkey working for bananas, know that we're basically all just monkeys working for bananas, except for the monkeys that have the most bananas who bribe other monkeys with bananas to go and get them more bananas.

So pooped after the last week. 5yo is such a lovely kid but he's also a lot (in all the best possible ways). He's at my ex's now so I'm in that weird state of hearing his voice even though he's not here 🙃

VSCode is now the most unserious of editors (this from the latest release notes).

Amnesty uses transphobic othering in the public notice and email. That itself shows a catastrophic failure at the senior management level. By rights we should be suing them for the harm their serial negligence will cause.

The email from Amnesty International UK is even more gaslighting than their public statement… 😖 Including ‘gender critical’ transphobic tropes such as “rolling back women’s hard won rights” and treating trans people with “dignity”! F*ck them!!! 😖😣 Donation cancelled.

A dark day for human rights.

Purely for the sake of curiosity I watched some YT video of a guy filming himself vibe coding and all I can say is.. there's such a /type/ of guy neck deep in this stuff like a digital drug 😐

My parents bought me a replica armillary sphere 😍

Neatly dividing society into two groups; those who use the hooks on the vacuum to wind the cable, and those who don't. Props to those who can't imagine not using a perfectly designed system to ensure a consistently tidy cable. Slow head shake to those who don't even know that one of them twiddles.

5yo and I watched A Bug's Life for my birthday movie, which he loved, and I just realised was released 28 years ago 🥴

Thought it might be less surreal after I’d slept and woken up again, but nope. More surreal 🙃

Well fuck me, I just turned a half-century old. How the fucking fuck did that happen?

Hertfordshire teacher guilty of child sex abuse faces jail after tying boy to bed

A white Britain man is found guilty of a murder. Again the front BBC News picture is of the victims not the murderer. I open it up expecting a mugshot. it’s the smiling relaxed murderer on a day out somewhere instead.

The raise the colours leader didn’t get named in the headline when charged for murder but got a smiling picture at one of his far-right events instead of a mugshot bsky.app/profile/marc...

The founder of the racist intimidatory “raise the colours” has been charged with murder. Can you spot what’s missing from the BBC report on this? The same BBC who gleefully list the country of origin of non-white suspects? Name not in headline even www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is not on the BBC homepage. Also it’s noticeable that when a white person does a crime, the lead picture is the victim and not a mugshot of the accused.

Me: “everything you see is made of atoms” 5yo: *thinks* “even lightning?” 10/10 top of the class lol

Just discovered my parents have marmite in the cupboard and nobody told me. Outrageous behaviour.

The one character trait that all centrists seem to share is thinking that sounding smart is the same as actually being smart.

He blew my mind this evening when we were chatting at bedtime and he turns to me and says "I feel like an adult but with like smaller arms and legs and bones" 🤯 He's right, of course. Very high up on the list of things I wish my parents had've taught me sooner (at all), that one..

I _adore_ my 5yo's honesty lmao Me: "Have you finished eating?" Him: *nods* (knowing he has chocolate for after) Me: "Do you think _I'll_ say you've finished eating?" Him: *smirks & shakes head.. goes to eat some more*

The practice of AI companies secretly buying millions of old books (some vanishingly rare), scanning them for AI training, then destroying them, epitomises everything that is wrong with today's exploitative AI industry. 🧵 1/2
