I always wondered, when I read Suetonius, how everyone could put up with Caligula for so long. I think I understand better now. The institutional and social inertia is so strong, especially among elites with “something to lose”. No one wants to stick their heads up first, so they go into denial.

WTF?! Évidemment on espère qu’il poursuive Google mais… un musicien folk de l’atlantique vs une des corporations les plus puissantes au monde 😣

New from me: The storied fiddler Ashley MacIsaac wanted to play a show at a Nova Scotia First Nation. It got cancelled because Google's AI search summary incorrectly called him a sex offender. Now he's worried for his safety www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/arti...

Le Programme d'adaptation de domicile est toujours suspendu à ce jour... malgré l'ajout d'une nouvelle enveloppe budgétaire. Et la nouvelle passe encore sous le radar des médias. 🙄 www.lenouvelliste.ca/chroniques/m...

CHRONIQUE / Il n’y a pas si longtemps, une personne qui se retrouvait handicapée pouvait compter sur le Programme d’adaptation de domicile pour regagner un peu d’autonomie. Aujourd’hui, bien qu’une en...

Bon vendredi à tout le monde sauf au chauffeur de la 45 qui est passé 3 minutes d’avance, a bien vu les deux madames l’autre bord de la rue lui faire des grands signes et a quand même choisi de passer sur la rouge pour ne pas avoir à les embarquer 😘

"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."

Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?

Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

Évidemment, quand le consommateur paie 5$ pour un morceau de vêtement, il y a quelqu’un quelque part qui se fait f…er. Sans compter qu’après une poignée d’utilisations ce t-shirt ira grossir la pile de déchets dans un dépotoir et le consommateur ira joyeusement racheter une autre cochonnerie…

The people who make Shein's clothes labor for ten to twelve hours per day (in violation of China's labor laws), some up to seven days a week, and earn as little as 15 to 30 cents per t-shirt.

Excerpt from a BBC article: ""We usually work, 10, 11 or 12 hours a day," says a 49-year-old woman from Jiangxi unwilling to give her name. "On Sundays we work around three hours less." She is in an alleyway, where a dozen people are huddled around a row of bulletin boards. They are reading the job ads on the board, while examining the stitching on a pair of chinos draped over it. This is Shein's supply chain. The factories are contracted to make clothes on order - some small, some big. If the chinos are a hit, orders will ramp up and so must production. Factories then hire temporary workers to meet the demand their permanent staff cannot fulfil. The migrant worker from Jiangxi is looking for a short-term contract - and the chinos are an option. "We earn so little. The cost of living is now so high," she says, adding that she hopes to make enough to send back to her two children who are living with their grandparents. "We get paid per piece," she explains. "It depends how difficult the item is. Something simple like a t-shirt is one-two yuan [less than a dollar] per piece and I can make around a dozen in an hour.""
