Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.
fuck sam altman forever for taking away the last places where we could engage in good faith: the creative arts, which should be a testament to human ingenuity. i am so mad that everything i read or listen to or admire is now tainted with doubt. do you understand? he is a thief of joy and i HATE HIM

He's leaning back against the outer wall of the tavern while Nicholas smokes, legs crossed and arms folded over his chest. He's looking toward Nicholas but not directly at him, face tipped up to the moons and the stars. The lenses of his glasses shine in the night, obscuring his eyes. "There's something that I want." Nicholas bites down on his first response, which is anything, and his second, which is just name it, and lands on "We all want things," which seems safe enough. Vash isn't always good at asking for what he wants, so it's a good thing Nicholas is learning to listen. Language: English Words: 8,074 Chapters: 1/1

thebookseller ig account saying NEWS: some editors uploading confidential manuscripts to ChatGPT to read quickly, agent claims
the guardian: I wrote a novel using AI. Writers must accept artificial intelligence – but we are as valuable as ever | Stephen Marche
the walrus bsky account: Authors are using AI. Publishers know it. And now, says publishing consultant Thad McIlroy, authors are being forced to lie about it. One cancelled horror novel didn’t just end a career—it exposed an industry-wide reckoning.
idk guys when i see a lot of similar headlines insisting that editors & authors are all already embracing AI, i don't assume these things are true. i assume there are a lot of very rich people with an unpopular product pushing a particular narrative in my industry!

Might be the greatest opening paragraph of anything ever.
The AI economy looks...really precarious. So @matteowong.bsky.social & I did a bunch of reporting to try to figure out what happens when a potential bubble collides with a war in Iran and a potential resource shortage. The answer is...arguably the most dire stuff i've heard from smart ppl in a while

We got a DM the other day with a fun request from a local family:
Could we find this nice BART train operator who always waved and beeped at this special little rider?
And if we found him, could we deliver him a thank you card!?
So we got to work …
