misty vistas

@IslingtonBC Thanks, done 👍

@bolyche Good afternoon @bolyche - can you send details of what you're experiencing and what you are trying to see (including URLs, if possible) to communications@islington.gov.uk please? This will also reach our web team who can take a look or pass onto our GIS (map) team. Thank you.

@IslingtonBC Where do I submit a bug report please? Your Map of Islington is broken! These are screenshots of me moving around the same area with the same filter

Also more minor bug - I tried to find somewhere to submit a bug but only found a complaint form - Which doesn't work in Firefox 😅 islington.gov.uk/contact-us/com…

@Gumtree think your site is broken

@statto @theosanderson Hah! One was semi random 4 character strings.. But I quite like the latin response 😂

@theosanderson Yikes GPT-4 really is getting scarily good at stuff… :/

Trying to get ChatGPT to give me the responses it would give me before it was trained didn’t go as planned…

This is a side by side of two women gracing the front covers of two well known magazines. The one on the right we all know is Martha Stewart, age 81. The one on the left is Apo Whang-Od, age 106, a tribal tattooist in a remote province in the Philippines. There seems to be an unwritten rule which equates beauty with youngness. In an interview, Martha Stewart told the reporter she credits her organic, home-grown, farm-to-table eating, yoga, and actively healthy lifestyle to her youthfulness. While that’s an admirable journey for her, let’s not forget the amount of privilege that kind of lifestyle requires. On the left is Apo Whang-Od, who is a 106-year-old tribal tattooist in the Philippines. The wisdom she carries in every forehead wrinkle and frown line is stunning. Her eyes are glass, reflecting back all that she’s witnessed over a century of lived experiences. Her tattoos a reminder of the ancestors she seeks to honor. Both women are beautiful in their own right. But I wish we as women didn’t play into this idea that we have to look younger—and thinner—in order to fit some unrealistic beauty standard which will grant us acceptance and relevance in the world around us. I’m writing this for any woman who, like me, may have had a punched-gut reaction to seeing an octogenarian in a swimsuit on the cover of a magazine looking more like a woman in her forties or fifties: Anti-aging is not a beauty standard. There IS beauty in wrinkles, and saggy skin, and drooping breasts. These are markers of a life hard fought for and well lived. It seems odd to try and erase these battle scars. So while I applaud Martha for her fortunate body, carefully curated procedures, and pristinely styled makeup, I also applaud Whang-Od for what others may perceive as imperfections. Anti-aging is not a beauty standard. Authenticity is. @ FeministNews

Is this casual sexism or are these dudes planning the registration for a strip club? 18+.. Males only.. Thanks for the tutorial into your mind 😂

@olivialynes That's horrifying. Is Girlboss anything to do with that tv show on Netflix which looks awful?

Scoop: In January, Apple unveiled AI narrators. It didn't say how it trained its algorithms. Turns out, for three years, a Spotify-owned audiobook platform has been secretly letting Apple train its models on authors' and narrators' work. wired.com/story/apple-sp…

Getting closer but it's taken 10 minutes!

@STN_Airport can only find one water station and the queue is huge! Where are your eco friendly water stations? :)

You may have heard that Stable Diffusion, the AI art model behind #lensaai, has some issues with sexism and racism. But quite how overt these are really shocked me. Inspired by this from @Melissahei, I did some experiments with Stable Diffusion. Thread… technologyreview.com/2022/12/12/106…

sorry something came up and i cant make it today

@TheBearPack thanks for your show tonight! Worth noting every character you played was male except one female antagonist.. who was "sultry" or "sexy" & under the control of a man. It was a bit alienating & disappointing!

It's the year 2032. You're poor, accused of a crime, and given a public defender. It is a large language model running on the California state cloud that you access via encrypted chat on your phone

How old are you? me:

I think immigrants are some of the most amazing people in the world ❤️🌍
