A meme of Alysa Liu based on Da Share Zone reading: JUST WALK OUT work social thing movies home class dentist figure skating too fancy weed store cops it your quick friend ships IF IT SUCKS... HIT DA BRICKS!!! Real winners quit You can leave!! Da Gold Zone

I’ve been talking about Alysa Liu’s story about her quitting skating only to come back and become even better because she did it for herself and this came to me in a dream…

Come join, it's delightful

i'm being more intentional w/ how i engage with the digital world, either changing software or at the very least not giving money to things that annoy me. i'm tired of companies taking money for worsening their products and my general quality of life so here's a list if you need ideas where to start

I've never seen a population more united. If people can hold onto that unity, if people can accept that different people will have different ways of confronting fascism, if we can remind NGOs and orgs that they can join but not control the resistance, then, well, people here will write history.

Sure. AI companies have ALWAYS been training their models on Wikipedia content, which under the free and open access model is available to anyone — including AI companies. Agreements like these require AI companies to limit and offset the strain they place on Wikimedia infrastructure.

Yeah true, like out of anyone I trust Wikipedia to hold to their principles against their shareholders but agreed that accepting that sort of expectation is risky compared to staying staunchly opposed

Ty for this thread find tho, super good context

Would be a good way to get them a more consistent income stream to maintain operations, so they dont have to beg for money as often?

My biggest pet peeve - "wait, did you say [different word]?? Omg I though you said [dw] LOL I was like that'd be so crazy! Imagine if you had said that, let me tell you a 10 minute anecdote about people saying crazy shit like what I misheard"

I know this is a controversial opinion but IMO
art good

Sameeee

Ty for normalizing "good art takes hard work, not just talent" you're a great example for the whole industry <3

I think this is significant outside of art too - even in technical fields or desk jobs, the vibe is that we should only be asked to do things we already know how to do without having to do any work to learn or research on our own. Ppl just expect to be able to rely on talent or intuition to succeed.

It's a game, it's not zero sum. Theater kids can play twice as much as the math kids and the math kids can still play the same amount as before.

can't stop watching this clip of a tesla Optimus teleoperator taking his headset off before properly logging out the robot

Important update from two months into my “experiment” (lol) assigning college juniors and seniors to read whole physical books and then having a seminar where they use the physical book and physical notebooks and their ideas and questions to fill three hours of class time:

It rules
