There's a lot about the whole "AI topic" where I don't know what I should think. But I am quite worried what the flood of low-quality "AI" code will do to the free and open source ecosystems.
I found this mail from Michał Górny, one of the most active developers at Gentoo Linux (full disclosure: I'm also a Gentoo developer, but not one of the most active ones 🙂 ), about the issues the ecosystem is facing, quite insightful:

The English in this article is so poor, there are several paragraphs I had to read several times to get any sense out of them. AI or the four(!) reporters named? Interesting topic, but nothing much added in this piece.

Debate has recently been fuelled by Jason Hickel’s argument for a socialist position on both the goal and the means do it for degrowth.

Trump Lays Out a Vision of Power Restrained Only by His Own Hubris
On topic after topic, Trump made clear that he thinks he is the arbiter of any limits to his authorities, not international law or treaties.
"My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.”
“I don’t need international law,”

Trump said,

I typically shun this kind of challenges for millions of reasons, but since I take photos almost everyday, I decided to give it a shot. But to make it more interesting for myself, I decided not to use the most frequent categories of photos, i.e. reportage or stock.

Is there some actual study on the "life expectancy" of magnetic media such as cassette tapes or floppy disks?
E.g. I have a pre-recorded compact cassette that is 50 years old and works just fine (and sounds great!), and floppy disks from the early 80s that read with no problems.
Yet when I search for this topic everyone always claims "10–20 years" is what to expect from magnetic media.

This speech by Zelenskyy at Davos is biting. Glad to see him call out the European hypocrisy of “speaking of values [when] they often mean valuables.” But, my friend, not one mention of Gaza or Palestine given the topic? Ukraine is the closest thing to Palestine Europe has and still no solidarity, not even an acknowledgement? I just don’t get it.

This DHS funding battle is part of a bigger question Democrats must answer as they fight to regain power.
Large sections of the Democratic base are now echoing calls to “abolish ICE.”
Some Democratic leaders, like New York Senator Chuck Schumer, the minority leader,
are pushing back against this with much more tepid, unwieldy, and frankly pretty weak ideas to “restrain, reform, and restrict” the agency.

This is a fashion trend. It’s not just functional; camo serves no purpose of disguising whatsoever on Minneapolis streets. Militaries are dressing the part — and ICE is playing dress-up.
Avery Trufelman’s excellent podcast Articles of Interest spent an entire season on this topic, under the name “Gear.” Here’s on relevant episode.
