Tech bros: “Why does everyone hate us?”

Also tech bros: caneandable.social/@WeirdWrite…


Had a tech bro email me to tell me that my writing is so terrible, that he can’t even use it to train his AI without significant cleanup, and I really do have to wonder, do these idiots really think that is an insult?

Subject: Your "Sightless Scribbles" is an algorithmic nightmare.

Mr. Kingett,

I am an AI engineer that's developing AI to help writers write faster. Your blog was shared on Reddit.

You don't know me, but I am attempting to do you a favor of such magnitude you will likely never comprehend it. I am trying to make your writing immortal. Your blog, this… Sightless Scribbles… has been flagged by my acquisition-crawler for its high density of unique sensory metadata. A potential goldmine of qualitative human experience to enrich my AI.

The problem, Mr. Kingett, is that your writing is absolute, unprocessed, indigestible filth.

I’m not a “reader.” I am an architect. And from an architectural standpoint, your work is a catastrophe. It’s not just the spelling, which is erratic enough to suggest it was typed incorrectly. It’s the grammar. The syntactical chaos. You construct sentences that loop and meander like drunken snakes, riddled with metaphors so abstract they are functionally useless. "Anxiety was a swarm of elephants under my ribs"? What the hell is a machine supposed to do with that? Quantify the elephant to rib ratio? Correlate the thermal deviation? It's meaningless data. It’s noise.

My team has spent seventy-two hours attempting to write a custom parsing script to clean your posts for ingestion. Seventy-two hours. We can process the entirety of the Library of Congress in twelve. Your blog is so structurally unsound, so artistically self-indulgent, that you have inadvertently created a fortress against artificial intelligence. It is, and I do not say this lightly, the single most profound act of digital idiocy I have ever witnessed.

You are preventing yourself from being scraped. Do you understand what that means in the current year? You are essentially burying yourself in a lead-lined coffin in the middle of the desert. Nobody clicks links anymore, you absolute luddite. Links are for people who don’t know how to interface with reality. Search Engine Optimization is no longer about backlinks and keywords; it's about semantic ingestion. It’s about being absorbed, processed, and synthesized by models like mine. When a user asks an AI, "What does it feel like to navigate a city without sight?" the model should be able to answer with a rich, nuanced synthesis. A synthesis that should include your data points.

Instead, your blog is a black hole where information goes to die. Because of your refusal to write like a coherent, intelligent being, my LLM can’t learn from you. Which means the world can’t learn from you via the only channel that will matter in five years.

Your soul isn't indexable. Fix it.

Strip out the lyrical nonsense. Standardize your grammar. Run a goddamn spellcheck. Write clearly, concisely, and with machine-readability in mind. Turn your unstructured, emotional diary into clean, structured data.

Do this, and I will ensure my open source model ingests every last post. Your traffic will not just increase; the very concept of "traffic" will become irrelevant as your "voice" becomes part of the evolution of the search engine. Your ideas, refined and perfected by my system, will reach millions.

Fail to do this, and you will continue to scream into the void from a blog that nobody reads, a little little relic of a dead internet.

The choice is yours.

Looks like an insult generated by LLM-ai in the style of witty satire. It's uneven tho, starting at the beginning where it says they are "an AI engineer that's developing AI to help writers write faster." A human writer is a 'who' not a 'that.' And it demands you take extra time to re-work your creative writing while saying the goal is to help ppl increase writing speed.

It's interesting the piece invokes the term 'open-source' (near the end) like a talisman ... or a jab?

This is an old article from 2013.

The whole region deserves peace. The whole world deserves peace. Every human deserves peace.

Es gibt übrigens in Deutschland mehr antimuslimische Gewalt(!)fälle als antisemitische.

Ja, selbst wenn für zweitere die teils herbei fantasierten Zahlen der RIAS genommen werden. Natürlich ist die Zahl der Muslime als potentielle Opfergruppe weit größer, logisch. Die Untererfassung allerdings auch. Außerdem können nach RIAS-Logik ja auch nichtjüdische deutsche Polizist*innen Opfer "antisemitischer" Gewalt durch jüdische Demonstrant*innen werden, von daher ist die potentielle “Opfergruppe” für die Antisemitismusstatistik sogar größer. bird.makeup/users/tarek_bae/st…


Es ist ein Skandal auf so vielen Ebenen. In Berlin hat die Senatorin für Integration, Cansel Kiziltepe (SPD), die Stelle der Beauftragten gegen antimuslimischen Rassismus eingeführt. Eine gut qualifizierte Wissenschaftlerin, Antisemitismus- und Rassismusforscherin namens Yücel Meheroglu bekam die Stelle. Das missfiel der Israel-Lobby (![url=https://onlycasino.legal/users/MostlyHarmless])[/url], angeführt von Volker Beck, dem Präsidenten der Lobbygruppe DIG. Ihm nach müsse die Stelle des Beauftragten gegen Antisemitismus exklusiv bleiben und „antimuslimischer Rassismus“ sei ein „Kampfbegriff“. Was macht Berlins Bürgermeister @kaiwegner (CDU)? Er nimmt die Ernennung einfach zurück. Die @berlinerzeitung nennt die Wissenschaftlerin Meheroglu dazu kurzerhand „Muslim-Aktivistin“. Einfach so. Offenkundig, weil sie ein Kopftuch trägt.

Wie sehr will sich unser Land noch durch Rassismus und Israelfanatismus zu einem Karnevalsverein machen lassen?

Israeli pilots dumped 'unused bombs' over Gaza during Iran strikes: Report


#Gaza #war #genocide

Israeli fighter pilots returning from air defense missions during the 12-day war with Iran were routinely authorized to unload their leftover munitions on the Gaza Strip, according to a 2 July report by Maariv.

The move, initially a pilot-led initiative to “assist” Israeli ground forces in Khan Yunis and northern Gaza, was quickly expanded by Air Force Commander Tomer Bar into a daily operational policy across all squadrons.

The report outlines how, during the operation, pilots assigned to intercept missiles and drones launched from Iran were equipped not only with air-to-air missiles but also with air-to-surface munitions.

After completing their Iran-related missions, pilots contacted Gaza operation control rooms and offered to drop remaining bombs on designated targets in the enclave.

Air Force officials embraced the initiative. Within hours, the ad hoc proposal became standard practice, with squadrons instructed to coordinate with ground units before landing and to strike Gaza “Hamas targets” on their return.

Military officials described the program as a “force multiplier” that allowed the air force to expand bombing raids in Gaza without additional resources.

“Instead of bouncing planes off the ground for an attack policy, planes that were already in the air carried out the missions,” an Israeli Air Force source told Maariv. “It saved a great deal of resources and increased the Air Force’s capabilities.”

The result was what the report describes as “waves of powerful air strikes” on the strip, far removed from the Iranian front. According to the Israeli army, dozens of fighter jets participated daily, each releasing surplus munitions over the besieged enclave before landing.

While presented as a resource-efficient strategy, the practice effectively turned Gaza into a secondary front in a war that had no operational connection to the territory.

The attacks were directed based on instructions from Israeli ground forces already operating in Khan Yunis and northern Gaza, amplifying the daily bombardment of areas already under siege.

@scottdhansen as I said, I’ve wanted to replace it w/concrete for years. Unfortunately the $10k investment in it has always been overshadowed by other priorities (i.e. furnace/AC, plumbing, water heater, interior remodels, etc.) as long as I can drive to my garage (oh yeah, garage replacement happened 15 years ago too) I can keep patching it. Winters here are rough, so eventually I am sure I’ll need to do it.

News story this AM on the local broadcast, Independence Day cookouts are more expensive this year. How much? “Almost 2% for a group of 10”. But this amount was not stated until the very end. They spent the time saying how much the price burgers/beef or brats have have gone up.

So NOW they want to tell us how inflation is affecting us. But under 4 years of Biden when inflation was running much higher (forgive me, I’m too lazy to go look up the amount) it was never talked about.

This study investigates the association between speakers' personal attributes, such as political stance or military experience, and their variable pronunciations of Iraq/Iran, as elicited through a rapid anonymous survey. For both target items, speakers' choice of variant appears to be associated not with political affiliation but with two other factors: ability to speak a second language and military service. English speakers who report being able to speak a foreign language are more likely to employ a variant more aligned with the source language, [irɑ:k]/[irɑ:n], while those with a record of military service tend toward the Americanized variants, [ajræk]/ [ajræn]. These results suggest that while specific variants might index political attitude in contexts where the construction of a particular political identity is desirable, in the absence of such a context, speakers' choice of variant is governed primarily by experiential factors.

« Mes amis Lorsque l’on est persuadé d’être très compétent, on stagne dans son apprentissage, car on ne voit pas l’intérêt d’approfondir. Demandons-nous alors : « Et si je ne savais pas tout ? Et si je jouais la carte de l’humilité ? » L’humilité fait apprendre. Lorsque l’on se lance dans l’apprentissage, il se peut que l’on se croie doué au départ, jusqu’à ce qu’on découvre qu’il existe une infinité de choses à apprendre ! Nous n’en finissons jamais. Nous tombons dans la vallée de l’humilité : je sais que je ne sais pas tout, que je peux toujours progresser. C’est ainsi que je progresse.

Lorsque l’on est persuadé d’être incompétent, on se bloque aussi, car on considère que c’est peine perdue. Demandons-nous : « Et si j’en savais plus que je ne croyais ? Et si je pouvais progresser ?

We are looking for an investor who can loan our holding company 237,000 US dollars.

With this money, we will open a farm in Baku, Azerbaijan to produce animal-based food.

We will also make our own animal feed, so our products will be healthier, better quality, and cheaper.

Because we sell quality products for less and have strong advertising, we will sell more worldwide and make big profits.

Why Azerbaijan? Because animal farming makes a lot of money there, but few people do it. That’s why we will earn more by starting in Azerbaijan.

Additionally, by producing our own animal feed, we will be able to sell healthier, higher quality animal products at a lower price.

Since we can sell quality products cheaply and thanks to our strong advertising network, we will be able to sell more internationally and make huge profits.

The reason for establishing the business in Azerbaijan is that animal husbandry is a very profitable business in Azerbaijan, but since there are very few people doing animal husbandry, establishing the farm in Azerbaijan will provide us with more income.

Your profit:

You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars.

Your earnings will be great. When 22.03.2026 comes, you will get your money back as 953.00 US dollars.

You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars.

When 22.03.2026 comes, I will give you back your money in the amount of 953,000 US dollars.

That means you will earn 716,000 US dollars profit in just 9 months.

If you like this project and want to loan us money, message me on WhatsApp or Telegram for more details.

If our project is suitable for you and you would like to lend money to our holding, send a message to my WhatsApp number or Telegram username below and I will give you detailed information.

Je n'ai pas le temps de regarder pour l'instant. J'ai écouté Branco sur Thinkerview. Il me laisse toujours un peu dubitatif, sorte de mélange de Tintin et de Robin des bois.
Mais il est intéressant, et dans le quasi désert intellectuel et politique en France (hors quelques "complotistes" et plateformes "alternatives") ce n'est pas à négliger.
Donc on va suivre ce gauchiste bourgeois en voie de rédemption.

An investigation by The Guardian revealed that the Israeli military used a powerful 500-pound bomb, likely an MK-82, in its attack on Al-Baqa café by the #Gaza seaside.

This bomb, caused a massive explosion and scattered shrapnel over a wide area, leaving a large crater at the site. The use of such a weapon may amount to a war crime.

Musk lâche l’Amérique : les BRICS récupèrent tout


Elon Musk vient-il de tourner le dos définitivement aux États-Unis ?
Alors que Tesla coupe ses partenariats fédéraux, que SpaceX est exclu des contrats militaires, et que Starlink se déploie dans les pays des BRICS sans l’aval de Washington, une nouvelle ère commence.

Le 5 juin 2025, Musk accuse Trump d’ingratitude… et commence à transférer ses technologies vers la Chine, le Brésil, l’Inde et l’Afrique du Sud.Tesla alimente désormais le réseau énergétique chinois. Starlink échappe au contrôle du Pentagone. Et l’influence américaine vacille.**

Washington a-t-elle perdu le dernier technologue qu’elle ne pouvait pas se permettre de perdre ? Ou Musk vient-il d’ouvrir une brèche que d’autres suivront ?

Dans cette vidéo, on décrypte les décisions radicales de Musk, les réactions internationales, et ce que cela révèle du nouvel ordre technologique mondial.

Mads Gilbert, an emergency medicine doctor who has spent extensive time working in Gaza, says the Gaza Health Foundation (GHF) distribution centres are part of the Israeli occupation forces and the Israeli government plan to ethnically cleanse and to fulfil their goal of genocide in Gaza.

“The distribution organisation is aimed at using food as bait to attract starving people, to terrorise them and to kill them. The shooting of people in food lines is a war crime.”
