ALT The “dog vs werewolf” meme. The dog has “Chicago” on it. The werewolf has “Chicago in the news” on it. The dog looks friendly and the werewolf looks scary. The joke is that the media sensationalizes Chicago and makes it seem like a crime-infested hellhole when it’s actually just a normal safe city.

Fighting antisemitism by insinuating that Jews own the banks
The vandalism and destruction at the Capital One branch on 86th Street is deeply disturbing and unacceptable.
I have been in contact with the NYPD regarding this incident and have urged an immediate investigation, including whether this is a potential antisemitic hate crime.
There is no place for hate, intimidation or violence in New York City.

Imagine if your gateway to all the object storage in the world…
…was suddenly not only many times faster…
but TigerStyle.
To process a trillion transactions, we built The Fastest Object Storage Client in the World* — from the ground up, in Zig, and TigerStyle'd it.
At @P99CONF, @georg_kreuzmayr will tell the story!

The US killed 15-21% of the DPRK population and destroyed 80% of their buildings during the Korean War.

The US killed around 1 in 6 North Koreans during their illegal invasion of Korea.
That’s like killing one person in every family. Then we act all shocked that they locked their shit down after that.
People are still alive from that horrific time…

I understand all the mega freaked Chinese sex tutorials now because if someone made me this I’d be left with no choice but to invent the most insane and passionate ways of lovemaking to express my gratitude

Reading some really weird ass shit on here about beautiful Hunter Schaffer talking about getting vaginoplasty . And just wanna say it’s so brave of her to speak on this and it’s exposing so many of the gross ways in which trans women get fetishized . The idea of someone aligning their body with how they feel on the inside and people saying YOU ARE WORTH LESS TO US NOW is what I wrote a song called brutalist about … 🩷

🚨 BREAKING: Texas Instruments declares HUMANS THE BOTTLENECK when doing calculations on the TI-84

Anthropic's proposed AI safety bill sets "killing or seriously injuring more than 50 people" as the risk threshold for blocking the release of an AI model
In contrast, when a single patient (Jesse Gelsinger) died in a gene therapy clinical trial in 1999:
- The institute that ran the trial was dissolved
- The senior scientist running the trial was banned from clinical work for 5 years
- Gene therapy saw deep cuts in funding and research activity for a decade
Tech and biotech have just profoundly different cultures of risk. As AI companies increasingly engage with biomedical research, a culture clash is inevitable

I have spent a lot of time down a rabbit hole reading people’s conversations with chatGPT and it’s so scary how it tailors an individual voice per person based on how they themselves type to it

Lmao that's the most pathetic community I've seen so far
A good rule of history: if you find yourself opposing a student movement while siding with the ruling class, you're wrong. Every time, in every era, whatever the issue.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Student movements have not always been on the right side of history. Mao's student Red Guards persecuted hundreds of thousands. Students helped Castro and Khomeini rise to power, and Nazi student groups opposed the Weimar Republic.
