Medical experts have warned that they are entering a phase where irreversible harm & the risk of death increase sharply.

Lawyers representing the two hunger strikers have written for the 4th time to David Lammy, "urging him to meet them to discuss a possible resolution."

Map of ongoing #Iran protests - it’s not some localised incidents, it’s now most of the country. Trigger of the protests was economic but people also hate the Islamic dictatorship with public hangings, whippings, beating and killing of women who dare to expose their hair, all enforced by corrupt Guards of the Revolution.

혐오를 담은 개인적 견해를 공개된 공간에 게시하는 것을 우리는 혐오표현이라고 부르기로 했는데... 세상에 개인적 견해가 아닌 증오도 있답니까?

PSA: all traces of KDL and miette have been removed from facet, arborium, etc.

github.com/facet-rs/facet/pull

Having been put on a list by their author, I simply do not feel comfortable continuing to support first-party integrations there.

For the time being, error reporting will be worse. I'm reviewing alternatives (including a new diagnostics crate). For markup it's... back to YAML for now.

I'm sad about this just like I'm sad about the whole thing. I am not interested in migrating to forks of either of those projects. Thanks for your attention.

Like a Wave We Break: A Memoir of Falling Apart and Finding Myself by Jane Marie Chen, 2025

The courageous memoir of one woman’s globe-spanning journey of unraveling and awakening—breaking free of the narratives that once defined her and confronting the long-buried truths of a traumatic past—by the former CEO and co-founder of Embrace.



On paper, Jane Chen was the embodiment of success. A Harvard and Stanford graduate, she was the CEO and co-founder of a company that developed a groundbreaking incubator helping to save hundreds of thousands of newborns in the world’s most vulnerable communities. Her work gave her purpose and earned her shoutouts from presidents and pop stars. Yet underneath it all, she was burning out...

そういえば、YouTubeで全世界に公開されている、と感じてしまうけど、YouTubeが見られる国と地域、見られない国と地域って実際はどうなっているんだろう?

ということでPerplexityに調べて貰いました。(本当かどうかは各自確認してね)

■ 完全にほぼ見られない国

政府レベルでYouTube自体が長期的にブロックされている、または一般市民が事実上アクセスできない国があります。

中国:2009年以降、中国本土では恒常的にブロックされており、代わりにYoukuやBilibiliなど国内サービスが使われています。

北朝鮮:一般市民は世界向けインターネット自体にほぼアクセスできず、YouTubeも利用不可です。

トルクメニスタン:強いネット検閲によりYouTubeを含む多くのサイトが制限されています。

イランやエリトリアなども、政治状況や検閲により長期的・実質的なアクセス制限がある国として挙げられます。

Just realised fhat I still needed to officially introduce here to (as a term that needs noting)

I thought this was coined by you,
@muellertadzioTadzio Mueller, along with the equally pertinent , but now googled it and not sure who invented it? At any rate: best descriptor of our age to me! Trump, SUVs, private jets, fascism, climate denial, anti net zero mobilising, Venezuela and all.

연예대상서 레고 꽃다발, 화원 단체 “상처 받았다”

n.news.naver.com/article/023/0

❝9일 전국 화원 단체인 한국화원협회(회장 배정구)에 따르면 협회는 최근 입장문을 내고 “장난감 꽃다발 사용은 경기 침체와 소비 위축으로 어려움을 겪는 화훼 농가와 화원 종사자들에게 또 다른 상처를 줬다”고 반발했다. 이어 “자칫 생화 꽃다발이 비효율적이고 단점이 많은 것처럼 인식되게 할 우려가 있다”고 했다.❞

...비효울적이고 단점 많은건 사실이잖아

AIがほんとうに人間より知能が高くなって、人間がソフトウェア生産労働から解放されるっていうのなら話は別だけど、どう見てもそんなものではない。というか、結局生産されたコードが現実に適合するかという評価をAIができない(やる手段あるの?)のは、記号接地問題そのまんまだから、人間の認知機能を代替できない。

OCEAN by David Attenborough and Colin Butfield. This book is full of amazing information about the ocean, but also about the ways ocean environments have been affected by environmental change. However, the book also consistently demonstrates how ocean environments have an amazing ability to recover if we simply let them. I find it a highly motivational hope-inspiring read.

生成AI、言語を喋ってくれるツールだけど、参考それを使う側が言語も認知も甘く見すぎていて、コンパイラみたいに中身を理解していなくても使っていいものと誤解している人が多いような印象がある。「AIがマシン語わ吐き出してもいいのでは」みたいなのはこの誤解を象徴している。なんで言語をしゃべるツールに非言語を喋らせる必要があるのか。
