A lone figure facing the ocean at night. Waves and foam closing in. Sky and sea merging into the same dark blue.

Ah! I’m more curious about, what does the music suggests to you? The title is taken from a quote of Jules Verne’s The Mysterious Island. 😉

Pluralistic: Fingerspitzengefühl (08 Sep 2025) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow

Très intéressante réflexion de @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy sur la "connaissance du processus", par opposition à la "propriété intellectuelle" jalousement protégée par les USA. Tous ceux qui bossent les mains dans le cambouis (même numérique) savent de quoi il s'agit. pluralistic.net/2025/09/08/p...

Comment l’immigration coûte 3,4% de PIB par an à la France EXCLUSIF - Une note de l’Observatoire de l’immigration et de la démographie déplore l’impact négatif de l’immigration sur la croissance, la compétitivité et le budget français, à rebours des récentes ...

Le prétendu "Observatoire de l’immigration et de la démographie" n'a rien à voir avec une structure de recherche.
C'est un objet politique financé par Stérin pour promouvoir une vision d'une France rabougrie, fermée au monde, xénophobe.
Le Figaro est une de ses caisses de résonance favorites.

Quelqu’un sait-il s’il est possible de consulter un journal des accès et actions sur un espace particulier des impôts ?
Si ça existe, ça n’est pas bien clair où/comment y accéder.
Si ça n’existe pas… ce serait triste (use case type mais pas unique : cerner l’impact d’un phishing).

We keep hearing that AI will soon replace software engineers, but we're forgetting that it can already replace existing jobs... and one in particular.

The average Founder CEO.

Before you walk away in disbelief, look at what LLMs are already capable of doing today:

↳ They use eloquence as a surrogate for knowledge, and most people, including seasoned investors, fall for it.

↳ They regurgitate material they read somewhere online without really understanding its meaning.
 
↳ They fabricate numbers that have no ground in reality, but sound aligned with the overall narrative they're trying to sell you.

↳ They are heavily influenced by the last conversations they had.

↳ They contradict themselves, pretending they aren't.

↳ They politely apologize for their mistakes, but don't take any real steps to fix the underlying problem that caused them in the first place.

↳ They tend to forget what they told you last week, or even one hour ago, and do it in a way that makes you doubt your own recall of events.

↳ They are victims of the Dunning–Kruger effect, and they believe they know a lot more about the job of people interacting with them than they actually do.

↳ They can make pretty slides in high volumes.

↳ They're very good at consuming resources, but not as good at turning a profit.

Le mouvement Turning Point USA a créé le site Internet Professor Watchlist, qui fiche des enseignants accusés de diffuser des idées de gauche. Catherine Prendergast, professeure d'anglais ayant travaillé sur les droits civiques dans la littérature américaine, y a été inscrite en 2023. « Au début, je n'ai pas fait attention. Je trouvais cela embêtant, mais pas dangereux », confie la linguiste appréciée de ses étudiants à l'université de l'Illinois. Puis vient le harcèlement, les menaces par courriel :
« Quand Trump gagnera son deuxième mandat, vous serez tous virés sous le nouveau régime. Compris? », « N'oublie pas, chérie, que [le dictateur cambodgien] Pol Pot a d'abord tué des professeurs d'université », « J'espère qu'on te diagnostiquera un cancer inopérable qui rongera ton cerveau centimètre par centimètre (...). MAGA ».

« N’oublie pas que Pol Pot a d’abord tué des professeurs d’université » : terrifiant reportage d’ @itrippenbach.bsky.social sur la contre-révolution trumpiste à l’assaut des campus, sous l’impulsion de l’influenceur Charlie Kirk et de son mouvement Turning Point USA.

It’s surprising to see TED let @carolecadwalla.bsky.social tell this story, given that they’re so committed to both-sidesing this stuff all the time. youtu.be/TZOoT8AbkNE

"to democratize art is not every person having a cute drawing made in seconds, to democratize art is every person having time and health to learn and make art if they chose to, and mainly to have the means to think and relate introspectively with art."

You still know where everything is in the darkness but it can't tell what you are at all suddenly. It thinks you're the weather. "Radar offers nothing about toe stubbing and fucks maybe we're just not seeing it wrong."

This broke my heart when I entered the bookstore. I was compelled to take a photo because I can’t believe we’re here. Thank you Barnes & Noble in Wareham, Massachusetts for placing it as first table when you walk in.

While she rests wishing
How deep the grass, how high the sneezes

How safe her shadow.

Sun paths through moving clouds
Elk herds on distant shores

Fox tracks along river bends
Night drifts of silent moths

Beyond the trails
Smaller paws trying her prints
Reading untold stones
