I can listen to podcasts in the shower now. Though I probably shouldn't want to do that.

If you live in the England and rent it's worth reading up about the Renters' Rights Act.
It's a really good piece of legislation from UK gov, which means - amongst many other things - you can't legally be turfed out after a year, you have a right to a pet, Section 21 no fault evictions aren't lawful etc etc.
It's in law from today and is enforced too.

I'm not crazy enough to install local #AI tools outside of a VM, but I don't blame anyone for trying them out either.
#Anthropic is just another untrustworthy US company though.Given the stark difference between the websites of US garbage and European #MistralAI I'm curious if mistral-cli does something this bad (aside from slopping around)… 🧐

🆕 blog! “NHS Goes To War Against Open Source”
The NHS is preparing to close nearly all of its Open Source repositories.
Throughout my time working for the UK Government - in GDS, NHSX, i.AI, and others - I championed Open Source. I spoke to dozens of departments about it, wrote guidance still in use today, and briefed Ministers on why it was so…

A Supreme Court is a court, any court, which is covered in a cream sauce. The Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces? Dripping in delicious sauce, perhaps with some morel mushrooms and pancetta.

It's #Walpurgisnacht, beware!
On this night, Kash Patel's eyes leave his head. They merge with RFK Jr's voice, Hegseth's booze breath, Drumpf's micropeen, and Erika Kirk's pleather jeggings to form a single horrid creature that prowls this haunted night, drunkenly exposing itself to teenage girls and making unfounded claims about vaccines.

It's become a tradition for me every year to post a link on the first of May to the performance of Halldór Laxnes's socialist anthem Maístjarnan at the centennial of the Icelandic Confederation of Labour. It captures the solidarity and hope that his poem conveyed.

Why are AI people so monumentally *bad* at copyright?
I'm looking for ethical/copyright-safe training data sets. Common Corpus sells itself as that... but then I go read the paper and they include CC BY-SA scientific papers and GPL stuff from GitHub, and then in models trained on that dataset they proudly state:

Um, no?? CC BY-SA is not public domain, it's a copyright license. You can't train on CC BY-SA content and then claim your model is any more copyright-safe than whatever Google and Meta are releasing. It just means you're violating the copyright of people releasing content under open licenses only.
