South Carolina just passed a law requiring platforms to estimate your age every 100 hours of use, or any time they run their algorithms on you. 80% confidence minimum, $10k fine per wrong guess. The incentive is to collect more data about everyone, including kids.

Back in 1971 a left wing terrorist organization bombed the US Senate chambers in the Capitol building.
As a reward for their valiant actions their members all became professors at Northwestern, Columbia, and University of Illinois.
Senator John Cornyn@JohnCornyn
We are going to continue to tell the truth about Paxton. He’s escaped accountability for too long. Judgment day is coming.

The Wizard of Oz turns 87 this year, and back in 1998, critic Rick Polito wrote what might be the greatest one-line TV listing ever for TCM.

Ok, confession time: I use agentic coding *all the time* and *every day*. And have been doing so for many months.
I am *terrified* of skill deterioration on my side. I see the studies, I can feel it myself. The agents make me much more productive, but I feel I need to force...

Let me you a little secret.
This is a lie. This bill is called the Stop CSAM Act so that no one can look like a bad person by opposing it. But this bill does nothing for CSAM.
In fact, this is a bill to gut Section 230 completely.
Trojan horse of all trojan horses.
Lynn's Warriors@lynns_warriors
More than 100 organizations including Lynn's Warriors💙, across the United States have joined together to urge Congress to pass the STOP CSAM Act and strengthen accountability for platforms that facilitate the online sexual exploitation and abuse of children. endoseac.org/100-organizati…

@BretDevereaux I think the people calling you "woke" don't distinguish between different flavors of leftism.
And they don't like your critiques of Trump, and they lump all enemies into the same bucket. And woke is the ascendant flavor of leftism this decade

There is an irony that I get accused of being 'woke' for defending the academic classics when the reason I am defending the academic classics is that I am conservative and I think the western tradition of wide-ranging open inquiry into the past is worth conserving.

Payments processors should not have the power to regulate/censor fiction.

@TrnsTraditional Only if the murderer are trans inclusive though, right?
It's rare that we have data about this, so everyone is guessing based on vibes
English
I mean, most murders of Trans women are pretty explicitly "Trans Inclusive Violence Against Women." The Redux girl isn't very bright.

Car engines are better. Cars are safer. But the bucket seat is basically the same

How many technologies are stuck in a local optima?
Big loudspeakers basically peaked in the 1970s.
Obviously we’ve gotten somewhat better, but it’s a lot closer to: “a couple % more accurate” than “the average person immediately notices the +50-year technological progress”
Miniaturization has improved a lot, so has digital signal processing, amplification. But take a high end setup from 50 years ago, sit in the sweet spot at the same volume…it won’t feel radically different.
I’m trying to think of other fields where the underlying principles were so mature that half a century of progress in materials/software/electronics is underwhelming.
Camera Lenses seem like a good candidate. Non-electronic instruments is another; it’s not like cellos have gotten that much better in the last ~300 years.

pagliacci the hated 🌝@Slatzism
Incredible development in the case of the UW troon who was stabbed. The killer told prosecutors that he just wanted to murder a woman. That was his motive. So he either thought the troon was a woman, or he actively included “trans women” in his definition of “women.” Not only was this not a transphobic hate crime, it is probably the world’s first gender affirming murder. Transphobia would have saved this guy’s life.

Facebook has many, many times more CSAM than any explicitly pornographic platform and you know that
National Center on Sexual Exploitation@NCOSE
UN experts are sounding the alarm on the complicity of online pornographic platforms in exploitation and abuse. The harms of the pornography industry are not hypothetical, they are global, documented, and devastating. It’s time for governments and Big Tech to stop looking the other way.
