  1. The Racists in charge of the #AdelaideWritersFestival should be excommunicated from the Australian Arts community. For life.

    No more gala luncheon, no more social networking, no more Orders of Australia, no more board appointments. Done. Gone, for ever. Off the artistic roll-call.

  2. I suspect we will eventually get to a point where the engineers working on "AI" - at least, those working on the few applications that actually make the #companies #money - are going to start doing what many engineers working in the "defence" #industry do: obfuscating. Lying. To avoid others knowing what they actually do with their days.

    "What do you do?"

    "I design bomb casements for cluster munitions, to increase the total number of civilian casualties when despots use them against non-military targets" tends to get you #shunned at parties, so they say "Oh, I do structural steel work" or something else non-specific.

    Similarly, "I develop language models that keep helpless customers occupied until they give up in frustration so the companies can lay off most of their customer-support staff" isn't going to be a popular announcement to all those at the party whose jobs were destroyed by "AI".

    "Oh, I develop and apply algorithms to novel problems."

    "Oh, I do data analysis."

    "Oh, I'm a plumber."

  7. One special notion
    Struck me out of the blue sky
    Not easy to shun
    Trying romance one more time
    Same old sorrow to sublime

  8. The historically proven way of dealing with evil that seeks to harm you, to protect yourself and loved ones, is to shun it, to cast it out, to isolate it from civil society and that is now what is being done with magas

  9. No pude resistirme a pedir en su web los Caballeros en cuanto los vi en el stand de Kirolab3D durante las Freak Wars.

    Les tocará turno de pintura muy pronto 😊 (justo después de 2 de Punkapocalyptic y 2 de Star Wars Shatterpoint)
