Inadequately paranoid.
Right more often than you think.

I want you to spread the word that Tim O'Reilly of O'Reilly Media is forcing his editors to "use" Gen AI as much as possible. The book I wrote for them, Hacker Culture: A to Z, is probably the last non-tech manual they ever published that isn't tainted by Gen AI.
I quit my goddamn fucking professor position at OPIT because I would rather risk my ability to pay my rent than subject my students to Gen AI "e proctoring."
Please check out https://stopgenai.com, I beg of you.

It's gonna be super fun to see the "market" react to AI companies introducing "surge pricing" for compute: Oh, you need to get this project done till Friday and all your staff is just vibecoding? Token price is now 5 times the normal amount.

I think it is a troll not an apology.
"I’m not a saint. Chances are many of you aren’t either. As mentioned, I don’t use MJ Rathbun for any of my personal work, and I don’t work on most of the projects it selected so far."
Artificial intelligence but genuinely human assholery.
"I honestly don’t pay attention cause my engagment is low."
I just waste other people's time. (Typo from the original. )
The sulphur dioxide (SO2) allowance-trading programme established under Title IV of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) was the world’s first large-scale pollutant cap-and-trade system. ('Allowance trading' and 'cap-and-trade' are synonymous.) The stated purpose of the Acid Rain Program was to reduce total annual SO2 emissions in the US by ten million tons relative to 1980, when total US emissions were about 26 million tons. In a departure from conventional environmental regulation, the legislation did not prescribe how power plants would reduce their SO2 emissions.
Who is going to DefCon? I am sending a PhD student and she needs to know some people!
Peeps! Help me make her feel a welcome from the community!
Somewhere Barbara Streisand can heave a huge sigh of relief. It will henceforth be known as "the Vance effect."
