they're both bickering and finger pointing at each other when they both got us into this mess in the first place and all of them refuse to cut spending. I hate that being a politician nowadays is essentially saying one liners to farm clips for their social media. In reality they'll just print more money instead of actually budgeting which means raising inflation even more making our lives even worse. I hate the dems and the GOP so much theyre an elite class getting rich while the rest of us get poorer. Both need to go.

Some lawmakers said they can’t afford missing a pay period.

“I’m not wealthy, and I have three kids. I would basically be missing, you know, mortgage payments, rent payments, child support,” Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., told NBC News. “So it’s not feasible, not gonna happen.”

oh so just like the thousand of workers that are being affected right now....

they will both agree to raise the debt ceiling again while they say little one liners to farm clips for their tik tok accounts. They are also planning to use this shutdown as a excuse to fire government employees. Nothing about this is "good" its the same performative cycle and they'll do it again next year.

yeah but they're paying people pennies compared to the amount of money they'll make from selling and reselling this (not just to AI companies). Its a small one time payment. TOS also gives them carte blanche to do whatever they want with your voice and all the information they have on you. This is a whole lot worse for the user.

After being notified of the security lapse, the app’s founder took the servers offline. In a message sent to users, the company cited a need to “add extra layers of security” during a period of rapid growth.

seems like a dev toolkit that other people can use with their own things for watermarking i doubt they would actually add it to google search. The majority of people who use google would immediately use it to circumvent them trying to push ai into everything which would not benefit them financially.

I'm looking for some newsletters from individuals that focus on anarchy. "Substacks" but not from substack, I read a lot of newsletters/periodicals on feeder and substack is against RSS feeds (among other things) since they want you on their platform. I get the RSS feed from the anarchist library but I want more variety.

havent seen a search engine that flags ai generated results. This would be hard to implement there's no technology (AI or otherwise) that can accurately guess if something was generated by large language models. They can do it manually since a person can sometimes tell just by looking (images, their cadence etc...) but this involves labor and costs money. The other option would require web pages to say something like "this was/wasn't artificially generated" and they report that. At the moment its financially beneficial to not say if you use AI. When the bubble bursts people will sour on the idea (more so than they do now) and they'll have an incentive to disclose when they do/don't use it. It would become the new green washing. In the next couple of years "AI" will need a rebrand.

Pope Leo said “we’re in big trouble” when it comes to the ever-widening pay gap between the rich and poor, citing Elon Musk, who may be on course to become the world’s first trillionaire.

Leo made the remarks while criticising executive pay packages during his first interview with the media.

Reflecting on why the world was so polarised, he said one significant factor was the “continuously wider gap between the income levels of the working class and the money that the wealthiest receive”.

“CEOs that 60 years ago might have been making four to six times more than what the workers are receiving … 600 times more [now],” the pontiff said in excerpts of the interview conducted by Elise Ann Allen, a senior correspondent with the Catholic newspaper Crux as part of a forthcoming biography.

Earlier this month, the board of the electric car maker Tesla said it had proposed a new trillion-dollar pay package for Musk, its chief executive and largest shareholder, if he hit targets set by the company.

Outlining the incentive package, which is unprecedented in corporate history, in a stock market update, the company said: “Yes, you read that correctly.”

The pope, who turned 70 on Sunday, has so far shown to be much more low-key than his predecessor, even if they shared similar progressive political views.

Francis often clashed with the US president, Donald Trump, over his hardline immigration policies, while Leo, formerly Cardinal Robert Prevost, also criticised Trump’s policies on his X account before becoming pope.

There was a massive leak of technical documents and source code from the great firewall project in the PRC on the 11th. Seems interesting.
