  1. Ah, yet another "let's measure the speed of tokens" article that only a robot could love 🤖. Who knew counting tokens like sheep could be so thrilling? 🐑💤 Spoiler alert: numbers without context are as useful as a chocolate teapot 🍫☕.

  2. 📚🤖 Ah, behold another philosophical soliloquy on AI ethics by someone who couldn't find the "Define Terms" button on their keyboard. Strap in, dear reader, for the riveting tale of why context matters—because who knew dangers could arise when pulling oxygen? 🙄🎭

  3. Ah yes, because nothing screams "productive tech discussion" like reducing nuanced, human conversation to a glorified emoji traffic light system. 🚦 Now you can spend less time reading comments and more time arbitrarily judging strangers—because who needs context when you've got colored dots? 🙄

  4. To the travel cat who sees a Dutchman and assumes a cloud of smoke; to the stranger who sees a Muslim and assumes a closed door; and to the Board members who see a policy and assume a moral high ground: Context matters.

    I am often greeted with the noise of "incidental" outrage: "F@ you, zealous bigot." My answer remains the same: "My dear, context please. Your words are just noise." Read on: library.profpeter.my/paper-tra

  5. 📰 The Story Behind the Sale: Why Context Changes Everything—— A “cheaper” Thanksgiving dinner might sound like good news—until you look at what’s missing. Explore how narrative intelligence helps us question the stories we’re told, see beyond surface claims, and understand why context is everything when it comes to truth.

  6. MAGA lied again. 😡 Jimmy Kimmel didn’t defend a killer—he called out their desperate spin to make him “not one of them.” Stop gaslighting. #MAGA #FakeNews #ContextMatters @jimmykimmel.com www.google.com/url?q=https:...

  7. "... feminism isn’t reserved for the privileged or the palatable. It’s not just for white women in boardrooms. It’s about equity for everyone. And to suggest that a phrase rooted in Black and queer vernacular is “anti-feminist” is to reveal a narrow and (frankly problematic) understanding of what feminism is and who it’s for."

  9. > Creating a daemon is not just about forking but also about killing the parent.

    A normal sentence for a programmer. In an rpg, it might take a very different meaning. #ContextMatters

  10. Just found that the Android app I use for Mastodon #Pachli is not showing Replies any different to Original Posts.

    So I've been Replying inside Threads without realising this.

    > Masks are *not* ‘disability prosthetics’, they are collective preventative and precautionary tools for *everyone* to use for the common good of society

    My knee-jerk reactions to this post was to assume you're talking about "masks" in the context of *masking*. As in, the uncomfortable shapes neurodivergents twist ourselves into to pass as "normal" in neurotypical society.

    I'm so glad I clicked to check the context before replying!

  12. And yes, worth noting (thank you, @Logophilius) that "grinded" is indeed the correct past tense when speaking of the dance motion.

    I didn't mention it in my client comment because it wasn't that usage. He was describing the grinding of bone.

  13. Euphemisms in a #climate talk - in one #SEAsian country, "anti-corruption" drive is creating "policy uncertainty" that harms progress on the #energytransition.

    Of course, the "anti-corruption" drive they are referring to is the arbitrary arrest of environmentalist and human right defenders by an increasingly #authoritarian government.

  14. Tareq Baconi, author of 'Hamas Contained, the Rise And Pacification of Palestinian Resistance' on the Dig podcast.

    "Featuring Tareq Baconi on the history of Hamas. This is the context we need. And it is precisely what mainstream discourse mystifies, denies, and disavows."

  15. #PoliticalSoundbites SUCK.

    They’re shortcuts for journos. They become headlines. And, online, they quickly become #Propaganda.

    Yes, I know. We live in a TL;DR world.

    But if you see/hear/read a political soundbite that enflames you, make an effort to find a #transcript of the whole from which those words were excerpted. And, if you’re able, publicize the availability of the whole. #ContextMatters.

    It’s a small thing that can make a big difference.
