Nik is an utterly fearless writer, in the running for one of the funniest people I’ve ever known, and without a doubt the greatest boss I’ve ever had. Fortnite would not be Fortnite without him.

It is beyond stupid that he was laid off today. If you’re smart you’ll snatch him up for your team now.

Why agentic AI creeps out women: because it's written by bros for bros who want Stepford Wives, and conveys that vibe: commercial AIs are fine-tuned to perform as cheerfully submissive handmaids, not working partners:

Still remember one study where they had "AI" look at photos to diagnose cancer and it had like a 98% or 99% accuracy...

...except all the photos of actual tumors had a ruler next to them for scale. And the algorithm just got really good at spotting rulers in a photograph.

This is it. This is why the alarm about AI mostly ought to be a much much deeper and more urgent alarm about the completely broken social and cultural environment many of us live in now.

The thing about all these pieces complaining about Marine Le Pen's conviction is that not a single one of them bothers to explain why someone found guilty of embezzling millions of Euros from public funds should be allowed to get away with it

An interesting French study shows that more women are finding it harder and harder to pair up with the growing number of men who don't see them as human beings with rights and aspirations to equality.

A major surprise. 😁

As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity.

TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄

This Neil Gaiman thing really just reinforces my stance that if you put someone on a pedestal, you're not only making a mistake, you're doing damage. Do not idolize people. Sure, like the work, respect them as people, like you would anyone. But don't think of them as special. That way lies trouble.

J'en ai plein le cul d'entendre ce mensonge. Le déficit public de la France, le solde quoi, est d'environ 180 milliards. Le montant des aides publiques aux entreprises est de 223 milliards. Si c'est pas finançable, c'est juste parce qu'on a fait le choix de financer autre chose.

I will never forget my old lead designer at Turbine, Chris Clay, who had a rule:

Never spend more time talking about a design in a meeting than it would take to prototype it and see.

I was in plenty of meetings where he suddenly slapped the table and invoked Clay's Law

I made a collage of all the Sisters of Battle and Space Marine pride couple I've taken a picture of. Still a WIP.
