@patrickleavy @Mojeek I've sent you an email
@patrickleavy @Mojeek Cheers. I can submit some changes when that's up and running and when Codeberg let me register an account (they seem to be flailing too)
@patrickleavy great 👊. Thanks for getting in touch. Is there a reason you don't have @Mojeek on https://www.rebeltechalliance.org/search.html ? There are details in that table that are also incorrect.

AI says NO: Tell Keir Starmer that people, not machines should oversee life-changing decisions

Clause 80 of the Government’s Data (Use and Access) Bill could strip away your right to decide whether people or machines make decisions that impact our lives. Big Tech and Whitehall are eager to cut costs by using AI algorithms to make crucial decisions about you. Soon, computers—not people—could determine the outcome of your benefit claims, job applications, or mortgage approvals.

@timbray yeah, Stacy had been the most effective proponent for MOND and that has been super important as a bulwark against the church of LCDM. Have been following published works for ~20 years so should follow the blog too. thanks for the pointer
@timbray It’s certainly the most important unsolved problem in physics. MOND is a durable and remarkably successful model but it’s empirical. LCDM folks (the mainstream church) largely regard it as heretical. This news is interesting as it seems that JWST has blown a massive hole in LCDM orthodoxy, and thus the Standard Model of Cosmology which is also an empirical fit. So both are likely wrong and solving this problem will result in a paradigm shift.
