walked off the job early Tuesday morning at a Riverside delivery facility, according to the Teamsters.

under which workers are demanding better working conditions and pay for the value they bring to the e-commerce giant.

Leading OpenAI researcher announced a GPT-5 math breakthrough that never happened
OpenAI researchers recently claimed a major math breakthrough on X, but quickly walked it back after criticism from the community, including Deepmind CEO Demis Hassabis, who called out the sloppy communication.

Back in March I got coronavirus and lost my framework laptop. Looking in tailscale the last time I used it was in the house and I didn't remember taking it anywhere else. I'd given up trying to find it, thinking someone must have just walked into the house and taken it or something. Then two days ago I was looking for my son's laptop and my wife found mine. It was on a table downstairs the whole time. For seven months !

For today's #footpathFriday I chose this trail that I enjoyed this #autumn. I walked it to check whether I could bike it as well. -- Well, I met two bikers but it looks quite ... challenging. Well, not THIS part, but quite some other parts.

Digital Omnibus: Svenja Hahn fordert digitale Deregulierung
Europa steht an einem Wendepunkt. In der kommenden Woche präsentiert die EU-Kommission ihre Vorschläge zur Vereinfachung ihrer Digital- und Datengesetze. Das ist die historische Chance, unsere europäische Wirtschaft endlich vom lähmenden Regulierungsballast zu befreien.

Ein massiver Rückgang wilder #Bestäuberinsekten könnte Europa laut einer Simulation bis 2030 wirtschaftlich rund 24 Milliarden Euro kosten.

Europa ohne Wildbestäuber: Simulation zeigt die teuren Folgen des Insektensterbens
Ein hypothetisches Verschwinden der Wildbestäuber im Jahr 2030 würde nicht nur Ernteausfälle und steigende Lebensmittelpreise nach sich ziehen, sondern auch die Ernährungssicherheit und den wirtschaftlichen Wohlstand weltweit gefährden. Zu diesem Schluss kommt eine Simulation der Universität Hohenheim: Allein in Europa würde im Jahr 2030 der gesamtwirtschaftliche Schaden rund 24 Milliarden Euro betragen. Der weltweite Handel könnte die Ausfälle nur teilweise ausgleichen. Die Ergebnisse…

Congress lacks the cajones to respond to this clear rejection of the authority of Congress to make laws.
The proper response would be impeachment and conviction of blondi bondi. But no, our Congress will just roll over and snore.

Strikes run on pizza.
Turns out they also can begin to end on them.
Several pies, in fact, arrived on North Shore Drive on the brisk Tuesday that was Oct. 18, 2022,
when the strikers first walked out of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette newsroom
because the PG had violated federal labor law.
The workers said they would not go back to their jobs until their employer followed the rules.
They had no idea it would take three years
and become the nation’s lon…

Pittsburgh journalists vote to end country's longest strike and notify the PG they are returning to work - Pittsburgh Union Progress
The Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh’s most momentous gathering since the formation of a strike picket line more than three years ago began last week in the manner of all big strike meetings — with the arrival of a half dozen boxes of pizza. Pepperoni, plain and a vegetarian option. Strikes run on pizza. Turns out […]
