just another human-encased ego. Also: label, label, label, and (of course) label. If you're not sure, it's snark. He/Him.
It’s striking how much of the return to office pressure is actually from local governments that have built an entire economy around commercial real estate and business from daily commuters.
Dan Dennett suggests that presenting a chatbot as a human is an offense similar to counterfeiting money. As such, he suggests mechanisms that should be in place immediately. This is a subject that can be explored without answering the most speculative questions of general intelligence. As a purveyor of collaborator software I feel some obligation to take Dan's suggestions seriously. I request my colleagues here to help me reason this out. Thank you.

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal - Artificial Incompetence

“As the world turns on these wretched charlatans, take pride in every time you’ve seen them for who they are. Take pride in not accepting the terms of prestige that the rich and powerful demand just for existing. Take pride in fighting for causes that support workers’ rights, diversity and fairness.

“And spit venom in the eye of those who would step on another person’s skull to make a dollar.”

Moving Fast and Breaking Things

When someone is suppressed, restrained or otherwise pushed into a corner, the aggressor tends to assume unlimited power.

Where should I start?

So I understand that the bird site has started blocking links to common/known Mastodon instances, and that doesn't seem like free speech to me. So... I did a thing.

If you go to https://spacekaren.sucks it is now a URL shortener that blocks the twitter user agent. That means you can share that link that will redirect to your Mastodon account without the pouty baby stopping you. If you find this helpful can you boost so others can find it? #TwitterMigration #Mastodon #Musk #introduction

Space Karen Sucks

Free speech really should be free. To bypass the new censorship regime at twitter, use this URL shortener to link to Mastodon or other censored destinations. Considering recent policy decisions on twitter, please be aware that use of links generated from this site may constitute a violation of their policy.
