  1. I wished “interest in working with artificial intelligence” in a software engineering job description is meant as machine learning, computer vision, semantic modeling, expert systems, etc.

  3. 🤡 Behold, the magical harness that promises to do EVERYTHING 🛠️ — except make coherent sense in this article. 🤔 Arda's musings on liberating #LLMs from chat boxes reads like a self-help guide for inanimate objects. **Spoiler:** It’s just a wishful thinking list for a future that’s nowhere near as bright as advertised. 🌈

  5. Ah, the magical world of #pseudoscience 🍄✨, where an 80-year-old woman with Alzheimer's gobbles shrooms and—surprise!—finds her voice again. Because who needs decades of medical research when you have "personalized microdosing" and a sprinkle of wishful thinking? 🙄🔮

  7. CW: CW: Adversarial Psychology & Real-World Threats

    Utopias are a completely detached fairy-tale. It sounds amazing, but I am not naive enough to believe it's possible.

    The idea that you can just morally lecture transnational cartels, state-sponsored cyberwarfare units, or ruthless criminal networks into putting down their weapons and singing in harmony is peak naivety. The idea that predatory behavior can be eliminated is equally as naive. Everyone is born innocent and thought control is a dystopian nightmare.

    If the world worked that way, I’d stop studying cybersecurity, drop adversarial thinking, and pick up a peace pipe. Unfortunately, I have looked some of these types of threats right in the eyes and I can confidently tell you they don't care about a utopian fantasy world, which is exactly why I found myself studying cybersecurity and adversarial thinking in the first place. The mere mention of something like that would make them think you are weak and immediately put you on their radar as someone to manipulate.

    Anyone who thinks a utopia is possible is either moral grandstanding, or they are naive and have zero understanding of human psychology and the Dark Tetrad.

    Unfortunately, there's never going to be a world where you can completely put your guard down. There's always going to be predators in this world. Fantasizing of a utopia makes you easy prey. This is exactly what narcissists look for; naive, wishful thinking.

  8. A quotation from Olivia Butler

    Wishful thinking is no more help in predicting the future than fear, superstition or depression.

    Octavia Butler (1947-2006) American writer
    Essay (2000-05), “A Few Rules for Predicting the Future,” Essence Magazine

  10. CW: Pareri su #DisclosureDay

    Più che un #film è un #WishfulThinking ossia un “sarebbe bello se” di #Spielberg
    Una favoletta coi gomblodddi e le faccette di E. Blunt con una prima parte girata magistralmente e una seconda bolsa e puerile.
    E qualcuno avvisi Senor Spilbergo che filmati con gli #UFO sono stati in parte de-secretati (certo, per tentare di offuscare gli #EpsteinFiles ) e potremmo vederli tutti tranquillamente, ma non mi pare il mondo stia una crema, eh.

    Wishful thinking: Ukraine rubbishes Russia's latest Luhansk Oblast claim -- Climate policy becomes new front in Ukraine-EU economic tensions -- Russia’s war won’t end soon, Dmytro Kuleba says -- Greatest threat as Russia arms for large-scale war, Germany unveils plan to build Europe's strongest army ... and more

  15. @janl Wäre total super, wenn sich Akkus mit einer Seriennummer (oder so) dem Ladegerät zu erkennen geben könnten, so dass das Ladegerät ab und an mal die Kapazität ermitteln kann und das dann maschinenlesbar macht. #wishfulthinking

    Ich mache das gerade manuell ab und an um alte eneloops aussortieren zu können. Aber das ist alles andere als ein gelöstes Problem - für mich zumindest.

  17. Gotta wonder how many non-oil producing countries are gonna make renewable energy dependence a national security issue over the next 10 years. First Covid, then Russia's war against Ukraine, now Iran? I just don't see how a globalized economy can function when its energy is also global instead of local.

  19. Wanneer neemt Nederland en de rest van de *beschaafde* wereld stappen tegen schurken staat #Israël?
    Om te beginnen met ambassadeurs eruit te zetten en (handels) betrekkingen te beëindigen.

  22. Yair Netanyahu, son of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has not posted on X for five days — a notable shift from his previous pattern of 30 to 40 daily posts.

    The sudden silence has drawn attention online, though no official explanation has been provided for the change in activity.

    If Netanyahu is really dead, it's going to be the most celebrated death of the century. Much less about his son of Ben Gvir.

  24. If I were running a resistance against an oppressive regime that’s trying to destroy the world and is cruelly teasing the people with threats of a military draft, I would choose, like, NOW to have a nationwide general strike. Especially with the price of oil and gas going through the roof.

    That’s just me though, unpopular opinion as it seems to be.

  25. @n1k0 mon vœu c'est que ça aide à la transition vers laSuite.
    Dans le futur, quand l'IA se sera enfin révélée aux yeux de tous comme insoutenable ou dysfonctionnelle ou en option payante, j'ose espérer que ce sont des fonctions qui finiront par disparaître.

  28. "Who are the women in these photos, and why is Trump arranging them in a straight line?"
    – "I don't know all of them, but this is Marla Maples, that is Stormy Daniels, and that one over here is Karen McDougal.
    Looks like he's getting his affairs in order…"

  30. 🇬🇧🔐 #Britain flexes its bureaucratic muscles by tasking #Ofcom with the impossible: making #encryption backdoors a thing. Apparently, they believe in magic wands that decrypt everything while keeping #privacy intact—because who needs #cybersecurity when you have wishful thinking? 🧙‍♂️✨

  34. The next No Kings Day is in the spring?

    I guess Americans are just showing what those “color revolutions” missed… why endure massive protest for days or weeks to restore (or create) your democratic future when you could do it on a few sunny weekends and probably not have the same success?
