Seems like a good time to note that Barnes and Noble sells individual issues of Clarkesworld, Apex, Lightspeed, Nightmare, Three-Lobed Burning Eye, Uncanny, and other zines, usually for under $5 per issue. Beneath Ceaseless Skies sells some "best ofs" for under $5 as well.

Such a good thread both for letting you know what's going on in Paris and for showing standard police tactics. Telling protesters to disperse while blocking all the exits, singling people out with the intent to harm, and using tools that we know cause serious bodily harm? That's the cop playbook.

Anthropic does not apply the same protections to the data labelers they use to clean their training data from the worst shit in the world. But those are just mostly poor people, what do effective altruists care about th em?

wow I can't believe a math model inherently biased towards sycophancy would...display too much sycophancy www.healio.com/news/pulmono...

Gandalf at Helm's Deep knows his ass just got saved by the Ents. He's squinting in disbelief and clutching his staff like he thinks someone will steal it on the subway. He's speaking, with a speech bubble, so that he's saying the words quoted below.
