Every time I see this I’m reminded of the Creation of Adam.

From one of the Related Articles :

“I was just caught off guard and had no answer for my grandsons. All my gay friends [know] what’s up, they been calling me with love,” Snoop Dogg wrote. “My bad for not knowing the answers for a 6 yr old 😳. Teach me how to learn I’m not perfect.”

Good on his friends for calling him in.

Whatever his reasons for “going woke”, I prefer to see this route to the JK Rowling route.

I’m terrified that this might actually be what he said.

Not related to programming.

That’s fair.

I did also try directly searching for accounts from loops, i.e. @[email protected] and [email protected], and neither of those popped up either.

Seems a bit early to me.

I tried searching for @loops.video users on three separate mastodon instances and the only ones that pop up are the “official” accounts (@[email protected] and @[email protected]).

Anyone else have better luck federating with loops?

It must be a rite of passage for middle managers to say “if you’ve got time to lean, you’ve got time to clean.”

Yes

At about 5 p.m. on 7 October, a train was stopped at Otaru Station, when a passenger spotted the driver reading a book and reported it to the company.

This was a “local” train, meaning a train that stops at all stations along a line, as opposed to an “express” train, which only stops at major stations. Because of this system, sometimes local trains will stop for extended periods of time at lesser-used stations while express trains get the right of way to zoom through. In this case, the train was scheduled to wait at Otaru Station for eight minutes before setting off again, so the driver decided to kill some time with a book.

Not only that, but the book he brought in to read was about railways. The driver admitted that he had done so before in the past too, and that he takes the opportunity to relax for a moment when he has the time. No incidents or delays occurred as a result, but JR Hokkaido apologized for the concern it caused among passengers.

Readers of the news online were largely defending the driver in their comments and condemning the person who tipped off JR Hokkaido about the reading. However, there were a few who felt what the driver did was inappropriate for a workplace.

What an absolute, unnecessary dickhead.

Last I heard from Automattic, they were putting the Fediverse conversion on indefinite hiatus.

Is your news saying they’re starting up again ?

Fascists don’t like sharing, even with other fascists.

The problem with that, of course, is that one MIT study found that many enterprise organizations have so far seen zero return from their AI efforts.

Buyers are also changing, McKinsey believes. It says purchasing decisions are shifting from the IT department to line-of-business units. These leaders are increasingly making budget trade-offs between head count investment and AI deployment, and expect vendors to engage them on value and outcomes, not just features.

That could be a tricky sell, when trials of AI tools such as Microsoft’s Copilot by a UK government department reveal no discernible boost in productivity. Still, the AI firms have to recoup all those billions they’ve already invested somehow, don’t they?

They don’t. They don’t have to recoup those billions.

They can go bankrupt like businesses that create no value are supposed to.

Oh, I understand now.

I thought the claim was “the weather made it unlikely that he smoked a cigarette”.

Investigators later ruled out cigarettes as a possible cause based on weather conditions at the time, according to the complaint.

‘It was too [insert weather here] for a cigarette’ sounds like bullshit.

Just to make this abundantly clear, we received a cease & desist against our use of the name ‘Revolt’, we are not releasing any further details as this may cause harassment of the other party and may hurt negotiations.

Damn, that sucks. I wonder who the whiny IP baby is.

That just sounds like normal news.

Not “I’m surprised this isn’t satire.”

The mistake is assuming this decision was based on anything resembling principles or values.

Why is this in nottheonion?
