    Big #DuaLipa fanboy here BTW, even tho I am many decades past her ideal #demographic

    The smart thing for Samsung now, would be to get her under contract for a whole campaign using her & this fuckup as a theme.

    She wins here no matter what. #PR nightmare for #Samsung - total bonus points for #DuaLipa...

  9. @bss It can't, by its very nature. #Capitalism depends on #economic & #demographic #growth - ever-increasing #production of #goods & #services, & #consumption of them, with consumption of the #materials & #energy needed to produce them, alongside more #workers & #consumers. The result is #resource #scarcity, #waste, #pollution, loss of #wildlife #Habitat & #biodiversity, #GHG #emissions & #climatechange. A crash is inevitable.

  10. "A new #California bill would require state government forms that collect #demographic #data to add “#Jewish” as an #ethnic #identity.

    This would both allow California #Jews to identify themselves as an #ethnicity for the first time and make California the first state required to collect data on Jews in this way.

    Checking the box will be optional.

    Currently, some state government forms ask a question about religion and include “Jewish” as a response. State Sen. #HenryStern (D-Sherman Oaks), a California Legislative Jewish Caucus member who introduced #SB1387, told J. that the state needs better demographic data on California Jews. He added that some Jews may identify as Jewish #ethnically instead of #religiously."

  12. "When considering those transitioning to state #pension age, #policymakers need to account for the different #socioeconomic resources and health status that individuals with different #demographic characteristics bring to these transitions," say CPC-CG and CRA researchers in newly published evidence submitted to the #Work and #Pensions Committee inquiry into the transition to #StatePension age.

  13. RE: flipboard.com/@wsj/business-b1

    “Instead of paying humans to join focus groups and complete surveys, #Auru uses thousands of #AI agents, or bots, to simulate human responses. It feeds #demographic and psychographic information into its models to create human profiles that match clients’ needs, and the results those bots spit out are being used for product #development, #pricing, identifying new customers and political #polling.”

    Researchers have warned about the inaccuracies of treating #LLMs as human proxies (doi.org/10.1007/s10462-025-112), but I wouldn’t be surprised #languageModels beat #qualitative interpretation of non-representative focus groups.

    This #InternationalWomensDay, CPC‑CG’s research highlights the need for policies and structural support that expand reproductive freedom, ease gendered care pressures, and prepare #care systems for changing #family structures resulting from #demographic change.

    While prevention efforts focus on the young, #men 75 and older are most at risk
    The people most at risk from suicide aren’t those in crisis in adolescence or midlife, but men age 75 and older. Some 38.2 deaths per 100,000 among men age 75 to 84 are by suicide, which increases to 55.7 among those over 85, according to data from CDC.

  40. CW: anti-Deaf hate crime, ableism, US pol, American Sign Language

    JFC. American Sign Language is a fucking LANGUAGE. Clue's in the name. I'm so angry.
    Any jackass who calls it "wild human gesticulation" is welcome to (go fuck themselves and) learn it themselves. Clearly it's just wiggling around or whatever, right?
    Must be easy! Must be quick! Must not be exhausting, precise, and impressive as fuck, actually.

    Tell your representatives that you support the Americans with Disabilities Act and providing d/Deaf people and Hard of Hearing people with ASL interpreters at EVERY government communication.

    Want to learn? Awesome! Thank you.
    I'm learning BSL (when I'm not increasingly sick -- wear your mask please) cuz I live in the UK.
