Anyway, FWIW I believe that Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, Marcus Licinius Crassus and Gaius Julius Caesar secretly formed an agreement in order to jointly subvert the institutions of the Roman Republic and liquidate each others' enemies
The "what's your favourite conspiracy" engagement prompt believes O.J. Simpson was innocent
they are not very good.
You know what that list needs? The Longest Day.

"Do you guys get used to the smell in here?"
I’ll never forget watching The Wicker Man with my outer Hebridean mum. “I just don’t know where there got all that wicker from”
Isn't it weird when at the end The Great Escape the prisoners get massacred it's meant to be a bad ending? Turns out that it's all fine because bad stuff happens in war! If only the guys in Nuremberg knew this.
Happy 89th birthday to Daffy Duck; as a kid I was pretty sure this was the funniest thing I had ever seen in my life

Not the only example obviously but the BRS discourse in OZ is a great reflection of this point
I think ANU scientists need to perform some kind of study into why they are always like this
probably did more eye gouges than Ben Hunt though
Imagine
should put a little red hat on the stack
Hmm. I suppose I think there are two ideas here. One is that BRS specifically represents a hero; and secondly, the "bad things happen in war" motte/bailey argument which really represents the notion that Aust soldiers should legally be able to kill whichever Afghans they want.
well to be fair, BRS was awarded a VC and explicitly used as a marketing / recruitment lure
The correct interpretation of the V’Landys rule on six-again restarts is in Matthew 13:12.
this article is doing my head in. Where is the byline? Where did he make the comments? Because if you parse the quotes he's not saying the rule is bad, he's saying the enforcement is inconsistent. A month ago he was saying that set resets are good. I dunno if the ABC is using genAI or something???
The prophecy cannot be stopped
Underrated film.
you're telling me that who gets to be a star is driven by payola and similar underhand strategies? This changes everything I thought I knew

I can't think about it too much without losing my mind
For a moment my thought was: why are they all clumped together in one group? Then I remembered da Vinci's Last Supper and I stopped my philistine quibbling
Tories have used a tree in their logo for a good while now. I want to say at least since 2010, although I'm not sure the exact year.
When it comes to scissors specifically though, isn't it just ... fabric scissors? Paper dulls them? Not that I know anything about clothes.
Are you a believer in ghosts, my friend?
Maybe my perspective is skewed on this because of my job, but I actually think every act of writing is "learning to write".
So, it's granted that writing in education is a problem when it comes to LLMs. The other area I would delineate would be art and literature. As others have pointed out, what would be the point of reading an AI-written novel?
Another way of thinking about this is "LLMs are only a problem where we care about the value of accuracy and care. If we don't care what the outcome actually is, then it's a different story." I mean, for sure. I don't care about what I don't care about. bsky.app/profile/kevi...
