getting tired of people on the left still launching substack newsletters after all the reporting on that company in recent years

It’s a crowded genre, but this is one of the worst/dumbest “what product can we recklessly cram genAI into to justify its existence to investors as we hemorrhage money” I’ve seen in a minute. Good thing we have no functioning regulatory body in place to reign in our wildly irresponsible tech giants!

New from 404 Media: Google Earth has introduced an AI feature that lets anyone fabricate completely bullshit satellite images. In our own tests, we added a “bomb blast and crater” to an area of Los Angeles. This is a misinformation time bomb, will 100% be abused www.404media.co/google-earth...

The GCs won on this and they're still miserable. Complaining that the apology didn't go far enough and that Amnesty sent a separate email to their supporters apologizing to them. No matter what you do, you will never appease them. They're a miserable group of bigots.

Amnesty International has now issued a public groveling apology to JK Rowling's organization and has pulled her another report documenting the anti rights platform of gender critical organizations. www.amnesty.org.uk/latest/an-ap...

BASH BACK@bashback.bsky.social · 5d ago

Amnesty UK have apologised to JK Rowling for rightfully calling out her anti-rights rhetoric. Shame on them. A human rights organisation should not cave to pressure from billionaires, especially those who wish to make supporting human rights a terrorist offence. xoxo BASH BACK

We are disappointed to see Amnesty withdraw their report on transphobia after legal threats from JK Rowling. This is further proof we cannot rely on 'allies' to fight for US, Our work has been so effective that Rowling has called for us to be proscribed as a terrorist group, but we're still fighting. We’ll only win trans liberation by fighting for it ourselves. Don't wait for 'allies' to step in and save us; take action now!

This is the same organization that dropped the “Prisoner of Conscience” designation from Nelson Mandela, putatively because South Africa convicted him of violence. It fits their pattern - advocate for you unless it causes problems specifically for the powerful in the anglosphere.

“We were wrong to post this report titled A Growing Threat, there is absolutely no threat posed to anyone by these organisations who just launched a lawsuit aimed at bankrupting us for accurately describing their intentions”

«There’s also the rubble of words—the rubble of words that house nothing anymore, whose sense has been destroyed. (…) ‘For us,’ a Palestinian mother says, ‘the silence of the West is worse’—she nods towards the armoured car—‘than their bullets.’» (Don’t forget: Don’t stop talking about Palestine)

Photo of a hand holding an open book in front of a bookshelf. The page has this text: Undefeated Despair (December 2005) HOW IS IT I am still alive? I’ll tell you I’m alive because there’s a temporary shortage of death. This is said with a grin, which is on the far side of a longing for normalcy, for an ordinary life. Everywhere one goes in Palestine – even in rural areas – one finds oneself amongst rubble, picking a way through, round and over it. At a checkpoint, around some greenhouses which lorries can no longer reach, along any street, going to any rendezvous. The rubble is of houses, roads and the debris of daily lives. There’s scarcely a Palestinian family that has not been forced during the last half century to flee from somewhere, just as there’s scarcely a town in which buildings are not regularly bulldozed by the occupying army. There’s also the rubble of words – the rubble of words that house nothing any more, whose sense has been destroyed. Notoriously, the IDF – the Israeli Defence Force, (end of page) A hand holding a book in fron of a bookshelf. The book is John Berger’s Hold Everything Dear The cover is printed over white background. The author’s name in capital vlack letrers at the top, the name of the book below in between two yellow thin linea, and below the sub-title, ‘Dispatches on Survival and Resistance.’ Below, an illustration in black of a tree with a bright yellow circle in the middle of it.

Any minute now a bunch of techfluencers will say how much they "respect DHH" while pretending they disagree with minor points in his fascist blog posts. But won't outright call him racist nor will commit to boycotting his products. Won't name any names, y'all know who they are 😉

Anil Dash@anildash.com · last wk.

Just in case you still use any Basecamp products, DHH is crashing out about his AI product gently pointing out that it’s bad for him to have extermination fantasies about the Roma people.

DHH tweet saying “This is why we need competition and open weights in Al. Imagine a world where only Anthropic sat as the moral arbiter of acceptable speech. Fucking ridiculous. (Grok of course did it no problem, same too with Kimi K).” when presented with his blog post using a slur about the Roma people.

Are you sad the World Cup is over? Well, boy, do I have a treat for you! It's called the National Women's Soccer League (@nwslsoccer.com). If you're a New Yorker, you'll be happy to learn Gotham FC are the reigning champs! NWSL: No flopping, few egos, and, importantly, NO MEN!
