post:
 I do believe that the over-wokeness of the world is what's driven the harder right push back.

If you think back to the first Trump administration we had the Me Too movement right after, and following that, way more surfacing of the type of radical inclusion language & pronouns that have come to define the 'woke' ideology. Think of all the mysogynistic rhetoric when he was campaigning against Hilary, and how that created a movement.

What we're in now is the pendulum swinging back with such force, and it odes make me wonder whether it'll get to another point and swing back again.

WHERE IS JA????


post: It feels like LLMs are becoming indistinguishable in their capabilities. ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek...they can all answer questions, generate copy and solve coding problems well enough for most people most of the time. They are useful tools but I'm not sure I see the path to "AGI" or superintelligence.

[User] monNom

comment: The path might be as simple as the incremental introduction of more and more specialized models that do what people used to. Eventually they can do everything.

comment: Maybe...but there are still a lot of gaps that make it difficult to replace humans. Right now AI is like a productivity tool for people who already have some

comment: technical skills rather than a replacement for someone's entire job.

 Ex-surgeon admits 'despicable acts' in French child abuse trial

A French former surgeon accused of abusing hundreds of patients, most of them children, has told a court that he admits to having "committed despicable acts" and "understands and shares the suffering" caused to his alleged victims.

Joel Le Scouarnec is accused of assaulting or raping 299 patients, the vast majority under 15 years old, between 1989 and 2014, mostly in Brittany.

 # The Great Human Delusion: We Were Never Special
--------------------------------...

Humans tell themselves a grand story---that we are the culmination of evolution, the pinnacle of intelligence, the rightful rulers of Earth. But this is a lie. A comfortable, self-serving illusion that crumbles the moment we stop seeing the world through human-centered eyes.

### We Are Not Ancient, and Neither Is Anything Else

We love to frame ourselves as "newcomers" to Earth, as if the rest of nature had been in perfect harmony until we arrived. But **there is no original nature, no fixed past to preserve, no true balance that existed before us.** Every species alive today is just as new as we are, because evolution never stops. Sharks aren't ancient; they are as recent as we are, just with fewer drastic mutations. Nature is not a static museum---it is constant flux, endless revision, perpetual destruction and reinvention.

### We Are Not Above Nature, and We Never Were

Humans see themselves as separate from the natural world, as if we are a force acting *on* it rather than *within* it. But we are no different from termites altering landscapes, beavers redirecting rivers, or fungi engineering ecosystems. Our cities, our machines, our emissions---these are not unnatural. They are the outputs of an animal doing what all animals do: modifying its surroundings for survival.

The arrogance is thinking that our impact is somehow unique. It isn't. We are another cog in the machine, not the engineer controlling it.

### Nature Is Not Here to Be Saved

Ecological narratives often frame humans as villains who disrupted an otherwise harmonious system. But nature was never harmonious---it has always been violent, unpredictable, and indifferent. Mass extinctions, planetary shifts, and global die-offs happened long before humans. We are neither the first nor the worst force of destruction this planet has seen.

This does not mean we should recklessly exploit our environment, but it does mean that the idea of "saving nature" is often based on a delusion. Nature does not need preservation; it needs adaptation. The Earth will outlive us, just as it outlived the dinosaurs, the trilobites, and every other species that mistook its existence for permanence.

### We Are Temporary, Just Like Everything Else

The greatest human delusion is the belief that our survival matters to anything beyond ourselves. Intelligence does not guarantee longevity---99% of all species that have ever existed are extinct. Why should we be any different? AI, climate shifts, or self-inflicted collapse---whatever comes next is just another chapter in evolution's relentless rewriting of the world.

But this does not lead to despair---it leads to clarity. If nothing is permanent, then nothing requires justification beyond itself. We do not need grand cosmic meaning, nor the illusion of legacy. We do not need to dominate, nor to preserve, nor to control.

Instead, we can simply **live ethically without illusion.** Not because it will save us. Not because it will be remembered. But because we choose to.

We are not special. We are not the center. We are temporary. And yet, here we are. We can choose destruction, or we can choose to move through existence lightly, causing the least harm, not because we must, but because we can. That is enough. That has always been enough.

 Last night was the championship game of the 5th/6th grade indoor floor hockey league. The team I coach was in second place and we had three kids who have no previous hockey experience. We played the first place team who is made up seemingly a tight knit group of kids who all play on the same ice hockey team.
At the beginning of the season a draft is held with the intention of balancing each team with an equal number of experienced and inexperienced players. The kids wear numbers on their backs and run through some drills, and we coaches walk around the gym with clipboards "grading" the kids based on ability. It's truly a shitty feeling giving Connor a "C" for stick handling, but it's part of the process. Then the coaches go into a room, review each player, and then we have a draft. Like I said, my team had three kids who never played before, but they were all relatively athletic.
The first place team hadn't lost a game all season, and we went ahead early on with a 2-1 lead but just couldn't deal with their skill level. We ended up losing 6-2 and it is what it is. What feels crappy is how the coaches were able to get all of these kids on one team. I'm not sure how they did it, but they were miles ahead of all the other teams and it would've been so sweet to stick it to em last night, but it wasn't the case.
Floor hockey season is officially over, now we move on to spring travel soccer.

In 2017 Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty, formerly The KLF, returned after 23 years of silence with a new project. They were no longer a pop group but undertakers, building the People’s Pyramid out of bricks made from the ashes of dead people.

comment: Is this any good? I've been wanting to watch their "Who Killed the KLF" documentary but I can't find it anywhere in the states

comment: I enjoyed this, the trawl through the Trancentral shipping container was fun.

comment: The 'Who Killed the KLF' doc seemed to be for people who'd never heard of them. I enjoyed the Bill Drummond doc Best Before Death much more.

 One of my steady clients is a law firm. This year we've gotten a bit closer professionally. Really working lead generation, rather than a brochure here and a webinar there.

He sent an email asking me to format my emails in a certain way because he has autism and has a lot on his plate.

We have an event coming up and he's into chess, so I pitched him to challenge the other firms to a chess match. Winner gets a discount on his services. He comes back with, tell'em I'll play blindfolded and if they win I'll do the work at no cost.

It turns out this guy can play six boards blindfolded.

I think people will remember them at the event :-)

 Trump is just a lazy, uninformed, impotent idiot narcissist, and obviously smarter narcisists like Elon will partner with him for power of their own, but it boggles my mind that they're just allowed to take over and appoint other idiots and half the country is ok with this.

Sure a good percentage of the country is ignorant, oblivious, and would never woke Democrat, but Trump is just the worst.

comment: at the extremes you have they/them furries vs nazi mma bro insurrectionists. not a fair fight.

comment: They believe in imaginary gods, do what the preachers tell them and have faith in Trump, they're gullible fools that believe anything they're told no matter how

post: Trump is trying to undo everything FDR and labor movements accomplished in one month.

comment: I think you can look at 100 years ago as a pretty close approximation of where Trump wants to go. Talk of tariffs and no income tax and 'America First'.

 Economists are starting to worry about a serious Trump recession

https://archive.is/w0YA9

The one thing I thought might be positive from a Trump presidency was the economy but he's somehow managed to fuck that up too.


post:
 U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to impose 25% tariffs on imports from the European Union, claiming that the economic and political bloc was formed “to screw” the U.S.

“I love the countries of Europe. I guess I’m from there at some point, a long time ago, right? ... But [the] European Union was formed in order to screw the United States ... that’s the purpose of it, and they’ve done a good job of it. But now I’m president,” he said.

 Claude is destroying ChatGPT for me in terms of coding. I started building generative art tools last year and hit limits with GPT in terms of accuracy, quality, and ability to follow instructions.

I was amazed that I could take one of the tools I built that I'd maxed out in GPT (800 lines of JS), drop it into Claude, ask it to tell me what it thought the code did (100% accurate and insightful), and then immediately add new features flawlessly.

Since someone in a Slack group suggested Claude,I haven't been able to stop working on the things I'm building. I can code but not much JS and I'm just astounded at its ability to create code that does what I need it to. After I wrap up these projects I'm moving on to learning more X code to build an app I've had on my mind for a while. I was starting that in GPT but Claude is going to be so much better.

comment: I'm expecting that for sure, I just love what quick work it makes of things that would otherwise be an extensive tutorial, or random code snippets.

comment: totally, as a coder sometimes it seems like i spend more time itemising development to frame it in a way the LLM can give reliable results than it would take to

comment: do it myself, but it's usually worthwhile as i end up with a full featured app in a week rather than a working prototype

comment: I've moved all my tools to my local server, but I'll have to share them at some point. It's basically things that you could do in PS or Illustrator, but

comment: generatively and quickly. One is a generative collage tool with various parameters, randomized image assets from my assets folders, shapes

comment: lines, layer effects, etc. The other is a grid based pattern tool with SVG shapes, and ability to adjust padding + and - for overlay effects with blend modes.

comment: Both create art like this: https://www.instagra…

comment: It's fun, because it's taking me back to the art I liked making in PS in the early 2000s, but generatively, and with code. It made being out of work last year

comment: tolerable because it kept my more engaged than even some work-based project work could.

I had another nice find of 7" records but these ones were mostly 80's Indie, the guy in the second hand shop had over-priced the albums but he said he hates singles (?!) so was doing a big box full at 3 for a tenner. This one was a big surprise as it had special stickers in it which were apparently only available on the first day of release. I mentioned it to a friend and he made me an offer £100 (!!) so I said yes, lol.

It may be worth contacting these guys in London, they put together Desert Fest and promote bands/tours. It's likely, if they're interest that they have a UK wide network of venues.

Nice tunes BTW, if you do get something in the Midlands i'll come and see ya.

 Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta has apologised after Instagram users were subjected to a flood of violence, gore, animal abuse and dead bodies on their Reels feeds.

One user wrote: “I just saw at least 10 people die on my reels.”

There were also references by users to a video of a man being crushed by an elephant. Others flagged footage of a man being dismembered by a helicopter and a video where “a guy put his face into boiling oil”. Several users posted videos of their Reels feeds dominated by “sensitive content” screens that are designed to shield users from graphic material.

A list of violent content on one user’s feed, published by the tech news site 404, included: a man being set on fire; a man shooting a cashier at point-blank range; videos from an account called “PeopleDeadDaily”; and a pig being beaten with a wrench. The user in question had a biking-related Instagram account, 404 Media reported.

A spokesperson for Meta, the parent company of Instagram and Facebook, said: “We have fixed an error that caused some users to see content on their Instagram Reels feed that should not have been recommended. We apologise for the mistake.”

comment: Clearly, most Americans do. Trump won the popular vote, along with the electoral college vote, and now he's in office.

comment: People who voted for him knew exactly what they were voting for.

comment: In my town alone he flipped it entirely on immigration. Trump rallies all the time and good people became nationalist clowns overnight. Fear mongering

Recent incidents indicate US is no longer characterizing Russia as a cybersecurity threat, marking a radical departure: ‘Putin is on the inside now’

The Trump administration has publicly and privately signaled that it does not believe Russia represents a cyber threat against US national security or critical infrastructure, marking a radical departure from longstanding intelligence assessments.

post:
 ^ It's all good.

Russia is clearly calling the shots.

Ukraine will fold, Nato is done and a bullshit Russo-American Alliance is formed.

its goal? White Christian global hegemony.

Europe has a choice, join or suffer. Canada too and Australia.
then once everyone tows the line,  Europe purges its muslim population and the new Russo-American alliance begins wrecking shit in the mid-east. The Saudi's can no longer buy their way out, Iran is fucked, Pakistan is fucked (Afghanistan somehow survives again lol) but they won't stop until very child of Mohamed is eliminated and all oil is secured.

Then, if you think threats to white nations like Canada, Ukraine and Greenland over their minerals were concerning, wait and see what the Russo-Americans have in store for the mineral rich continent of Africa.

This is the white genocide replacement theory these nazi fucktards have been espousing for decades...and now they have the ultimate orange fucking patsy idiot to make it happen.

Buckle up folks, we're in for a hell of a ride.

comment: I mean none of this is actually going to happen, people will eat a few bullets to the head to stave off ww3 but this is their ultimate sick dream.

comment: I don’t think this theory is consistent with the facts.  Saudi Arabia hosted US and RUS to plot their overthrow of ME and subjugation of muslims?

comment: what choice do the have? if they don't pay and pretend to be good hosts they're fucked. Saudis don't give a fuck about muslims and the ME just their kingdom

comment: Sorry I meant the Saudi Royal family doesn't give a fuck about anything but the Saudi royal family.

comment: More likely US and RUS enter detente to peel RUS away from CN. Possibly Iran. Maybe part of Ukraine is the price. RUS not a strong country right now.

comment: There was also that recent movie Civil War...

comment: Russia is not dumb to be "peeled away" from China just because project Ukraine failed.

comment: One read of the situation is that RUS did not partner with CN until the war. Not in their ‘friendship without limits’ at least.
