As the death toll of Palestinians continues to rise and more than a half a million people in Gaza are on the brink of famine,
U.S.-based Veterans For Peace and several allied organizations have launched a
40-day “Fast for Gaza.”
From May 22 to June 30, 600 people in the U.S. and abroad are fasting
and demanding full humanitarian aid to Gaza under UN authority
and an end to U.S. weapons shipments to Israel.

We need to stop reasoning about AI like this. Every time it can do something amazing it's "well that's just because its training data is so big, everything is bound to be in there."
Then, when it shows some limitation, it's "Well that's because it must not be in the training data".
It can show a shark jumping out of the moon through a computer screen. It can generate stuff that's not in the data. Also, hands counting down are obviously in t…

A couple of folks said I should replace the pop-over email signup form on my blog with a much more subtle inline signup form at the top of the page. So! If you'd like to reward the more user-friendly design with your patronage and support (it's free, I only ask for your attention), you can sign up to get my new posts in your inbox just by sharing your email address. I won't spam you or sell your email, and don't post too often.

There is an open letter on BlueSky moderation practices as they apply to Gazans which I was invited to sign.
I have been feeling pretty helpless so I read the letter. It was very balanced and reasonable. The asks are not- as I saw them being misrepresented as immediately- to allow anyone who says they are in Gaza to post anything.

Yesterday I went to a mad scientist meet up.
Unfortunately, while I did have a sign, before heading out, I realized it was unreadable without shade. The location was a large plaza at noon. So in the end, I had nothing more than my presence.
I expect there will be similar events in the future that I will feel obliged to attend. I'm considering getting some "outdoor" (1/4 or 1/8 scan) HUB75 style displays, or maybe a grid of multiple epaper displays?
Tell everyone you know in the Netherlands to hurry up and sign.

It’s a bad sign if you are in a work meeting and the presenter opens up a .xlsx file and gives a 5 minute instruction on how to zoom in on a teams screen share while they wait on their file to load.
I just updated the prints on my office door to reflect the kind of photos (particularly event photos) that I am taking now -- as well the the new system which supersedes "three sided cards" that attains better branding in every respect except that it doesn't have a name (yet) #photo #photography
~2 weeks ago, I got an unsolicited email that someone was trying to log into my Roblox account, which was created in 2008 and I think never used since. I just finished the account deletion process which involved contacting support, doing identity verification (which was certainly not used to sign up way back then!) and going back forth a few times. Kind of crazy, especially for an account which never had any sort of payment info attached to it.

This gives me hope in humanity.
Also gives me hope that if we got this much signatures (like 60% I think?) in just two days maybe we can still get the Stop Killing Games thing to pass too.
