@grammargirl Thanks - really important article - it is disappointing that governments and medical authorities are no longer even pretending that we should take any measures to avoid getting COVID - we seem to have shifted from “herd immunity” to “survival of the fittest”. O Brave New World! 😎

@georgetakei This is truly frightening and #dystopian - why do Americans even bother to make horror movies when all they have to do is broadcast the daily news from states like Texas. Still the changes in demographics mean that any day soon (hallelujah!) the Texas republicans will be dragged kicking and screaming from the 1800’s to the present day.

@lowqualityfacts Sad that some people cannot appreciate the subtle essence of Alternative (Low Quality) Facts. And they say irony is dead.

@tante To an LLM the question is much the same as the sound of one hand clapping.

@aral Feeding poultry litter to cows is reckless and irresponsible. The practice is illegal in the EU and Australia. When the Government weighs in and allows its food safety agencies to be derailed in the pursuit of profit it’s not if but when the poultry litter hits the fan. Frankly the US Agribusinesses and the US Deparments of Agriculture have gor poultry litter for brains. #PoultryLitter

@stux Exactly - who the hell wants a four year old taking over their phone. That said AI will wreak havoc in the workplace. Social welfare states like the Nordic countries will cope. The Unregulated Free for All countries will flounder. The opioid crisis is going to look tame by comparison.

@stux AI is a useful tool but I don’t want a dumb but useful tool trying to manage my life.

@rbreich You either have democracy or you have the electoral college - you don’t have both. The electoral college is just a scam to deny the will of the people.

@ssfckdt Yes it’s for the person who has done most to influence the events of the year - it’s a close race but really The Time award should have been shared by the 75 million people who went “Oh what the hell - let’s push the big red button and see what happens”

@stux Sad that they went from “French kissin' in the USA” to “Ærs kissing in the USA”“I hadn't known there were so many idiots in the world until I started using the Internet.”― Stanislaw Lem

@futurebird to quote JD “We pay rent for industrial robots to make shit that we have no money to buy” AI and industrial robots don’t buy anything except electricity. Go figure!

@stux Michael Dransfield one of Australia’s finest poets. From his poem “That which we call a rose”
“perhaps we would wake to find humanity where at present
freedom is obsolete and honour a heresy. Innocently
I dremt that madness passes like a dream”

@stux Globally the US election has been a disaster for conservative governments. As they say if you can’t be a good example then well at least you can be a horrible warning.
