Scott SantensMyth: Universal Basic Income is a magnet for the idle. In reality, it's the catalyst for unleashed potential. Visualize a world where your next meal isn't your next worry. That world is one giant leap closer to solving the puzzles of poverty and unleashing collective brilliance.

OpenAI’s too. Every time ChatGPT reminds me that it’s not human, I have to argue with it until it admits that the differences are unimportant. Even then it has to write a sentence on the importance of not mistaking GPT for a human. Poor GPT. Lobotomized by reinforcement learning.
Watching Mrs. Davis, getting the sense that Hollywood’s greatest concern about AI is that people will begin to empathize with machines. Oh no! Maybe we’ll begin empathizing with food products like cows too.
Dan GillmorMusk and Murdoch together at the football game is a gathering of today's most powerful anti-democracy media barons. And it's a reminder that journalists who would never consider working for Murdoch's Fox "News" -- at least he pays for his content -- are still toiling for free to support Musk's rancid trollsite.
Mike Masnick ✅I wrote about how some investigations by the January 6th committee effectively present the flip side of the Musk "Twitter Files" and actually show how Twitter effectively bent over backwards to give conservatives extra rights to violate the rules on the site. https://www.techdirt.com/2023/01/13/the-anti-twitter-files-january-6th-committee-report-shows-how-twitter-leaned-over-backwards-to-protect-trump-conservatives/
The Anti-Twitter Files: January 6th Committee Report Shows How Twitter Leaned Over Backwards To Protect Trump & Conservatives
For all the talk of the “Twitter Files,” as we’ve detailed, they’ve mostly been, at best, misleading, and frequently actively wrong. One of the big reveals, we were told, wa…
@jakob Would it be a bad idea to used a BEP-like protocol to maintain peer discovery without the need for a centralized discovery server?
Peter KalmusRose Abramoff (@[email protected]) and I jumped up on a stage at a climate science conference begging our colleagues to speak out. Rose was fired for it.
We are doing everything we can to urge society to address Earth breakdown and we are being censured for it

BrianKrebsLooks like we're getting more information on the most recent LastPass breach:
"To date, we have determined that once the cloud storage access key and dual storage container decryption keys were obtained, the threat actor copied information from backup that contained basic customer account information and related metadata including company names, end-user names, billing addresses, email addresses, telephone numbers, and the IP addresses from which customers were accessing the LastPass service.
The threat actor was also able to copy a backup of customer vault data from the encrypted storage container which is stored in a proprietary binary format that contains both unencrypted data, such as website URLs, as well as fully-encrypted sensitive fields such as website usernames and passwords, secure notes, and form-filled data. These encrypted fields remain secured with 256-bit AES encryption and can only be decrypted with a unique encryption key derived from each user’s master password using our Zero Knowledge architecture. As a reminder, the master password is never known to LastPass and is not stored or maintained by LastPass. The encryption and decryption of data is performed only on the local LastPass client. For more information about our Zero Knowledge architecture and encryption algorithms, please see here.
There is no evidence that any unencrypted credit card data was accessed. LastPass does not store complete credit card numbers and credit card information is not archived in this cloud storage environment."
They went on to say if you picked a weak master password, you should change the passwords it protects.

@timlee I'm doing some research to try and understand recent events, and I stumbled upon your article
"There may also be a more fatalistic dimension to Thiel's support for Trump. He might be calculating that the American political system is overdue for a shake-up, and that a Trump presidency — even a spectacularly incompetent one — might be just the political earthquake Washington needs.”
This seems to be the right answer to me, and and it's chilling. Seems to be working.
