Harvard will transfer five daguerreotypes, believed to be the earliest photographs of enslaved people, from the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology to the International African American Museum in South Carolina, the state where they were enslaved in 1850 when the photos were taken. https://apnews.com/article/harvard-university-slave-photos-d9c01b7926bba2a686ff325617e93ce9
@samlitzinger "I assumed the 'Mass Deportations Now' signs meant precise, targeted deportations!"
“I voted for Donald Trump, and so did practically everyone here,” said Vanessa Cowart, a friend of Ms. Hui from church. “But no one voted to deport moms. We were all under the impression we were just getting rid of the gangs, the people who came here in droves.”
No, you DID vote to deport moms. You just lack the critical reasoning skills to understand that.
If I could change one thing about US culture, it would be this unshakeable and absolutely backward belief that life must be earned, and generating profit is how you earn it.
Life is a human right. Profit must be earned, and those who want to earn it must respect human rights in order to do so.

"Jennifer fever": When older men leaders prefer to work w/ and give opportunities to younger women rather than more experienced women their same age. This is harmful to all women. As the younger women grow older, they too will be passed over.

@Nonilex "That's our job," Rubio added, in-between disappearing students for protesting Israel.
Texas joins Utah in enacting a "protect the children" law requiring anyone downloading an app to prove they're not a child, meaning the use of government credentials and creating a vast treasure trove of personally identifiable information ripe for hacking. Expect continuing legal challenges against these train wreck laws, and other legislation targeting social media at the state and federal level. Whenever politicians touch tech, you can safely assume that they're going to wreck it for everybody.
Correlation does not prove causation! One popular example: shark attacks are more likely when ice cream sales are higher.
This relationship does not suggest that ice cream sales somehow cause shark attacks, however. Rather, both are related to some third factor—in this case, the activation of mind-control satellites, which are used both to market ice cream and to control sharks.
@GrimmReality So I guess that meeting with Al Sharpton didn't go great.
@SKleefeld I like Morrison, anyway.
@anildash My first time reading your website, and this pops up a few seconds in. This behavior ensures that in addition to being the first time, this will also be my last visit to your website.
@madycast.com I don't think Newsom is scared of Trump. I think he's a Democrat who thinks the way to get elected president is to act more like a Republican.
you cannot have an "injection attack" in a system with no formal distinction between data and instructions. what you actually have is an "everything is instructions" model and a failure to isolate untrusted inputs from the elevated privilege of access to private information
the way people are deploying LLMs is driving a freight train through the principle of least privilege and being surprised at the results
@thetnholler.bsky.social Yeah, but are they *white* farmers?
@jalefkowit I'll add that if it was early 1998 then my cousin would have been 16. Old enough that she should have been less gullible.
@tuban_muzuru Nobody has gone to jail for contempt? Have you told Bannon and Navarro that?
Got kicked out of church because the pastor said we should be more like Jesus, so I grabbed a bullwhip and chased the church coffee shop employees off the property
