Iran’s #IRGC has issued a statement via Tasnim News Agency listing 18 major Western tech and financial companies including #Google, #Microsoft, #Apple, #Nvidia, and #Boeing, as “legitimate targets” warning employees to evacuate immediately. This follows years of killings of Iranian scientists, military commanders, and officials by #Israel and the #US Iran has signaled in the past it will respond to what it describes as state terrorism with symmetric escalation.

@ChrisMayLA6 #Palantir and #BigTech (#Google Project Nimbus, #Microsoft, #AWS …) are in the same position #IBM was in 1930s #Germany. They are the infrastructure enabling the most inconceivable crimes against humanity. If that infrastructure exists, it’s only a question of time who will use it, and when. The efficiency of the German extermination machine was, after all, made possible by IBM punch card technology.

We are dealing with a historic level of evil ambition here. The #Epstein class will not stop on their own. They must be encouraged intensely to do so.

Time to get creative & think outside of the box. Before they put us in one.

LLMs Don’t.

Model Collapse Ends AI Hype. George D. Montañez, PhD.

LLMs Don’t Think: They process tokens via statistical patterns, lacking internal states or understanding

LLMs Don’t Reason: They exploit superficial cues and rationalize answers post-hoc, failing at adaptive problem-solving

LLMs Don’t Create: They recycle and degrade existing information, unable to escape the "syntax trap" (manipulating symbols without semantic grounding)

Claude: OMG! You’re a genius, let me start working on it

Yes it’s funny. Also, it has nothing to do with the dog. If instructed to make sense of something a paychofantic #AI agent will make sense to random sequences. This tools are fucking pattern matchers copy pasting somebody’s work doesn’t really what you feed it, something will eventually come out 💩…

#Zeitkapsl offers an #EU-hosted alternative to photo storage services tied to #US-based corporations. It provides various native installers for multiple #Linux distributions, as well as #Windows and #macOS, who we must acknowledge now are companies with questionable practices when it comes to user privacy and data and their tightening relationship with a domestic fascist regime.

One comment: the choice of stock images is disappointingly lacking diversity and for me personally off-putting.

The EU tech ecosystem is maturing, but swimming against the current of US defaults still takes work.

[…] If you're thinking about doing this: go in with your eyes open. The EU infrastructure ecosystem is real and maturing fast. But "Made in EU" is still a choice you have to actively make, not one you can passively fall into. The defaults of the tech industry pull you west across the Atlantic, and swimming against that current takes effort.

"Made in EU" - it was harder than I thought.

I tried building my startup entirely on European infrastructure. Here's the stack I landed on, what was harder than expected, and what you still can't avoid.
