Copyright laws, digital distribution deals, & publishing monopolies are the reason destructive book scanning is putting books at risk.
I get why folks are angry at AI companies buying books to destroy them. However, these issues predate them and hang a lot on books being subject to "market forces."
Dozens of us! DOZENS
But I was sleepy
“Does our always-connected economy of attention harvesters trigger or exacerbate ADHD in people who may not have otherwise experienced problems” sure, I think that’s a reasonable question
“Are chicken nuggets to blame” no
You know what even as a guy with diagnosed ADHD on medication, I’m very open to the idea that it’s mediated by social pressures. But. It’s not fucking processed food

Council tax is a bad tax. But most proposals to replace it get the wrong end of the stick.
Rather than centralising council tax and handing out more grants, the solution is the opposite. If we devolve council tax we can cut bills for 2/3 of people across England.
Quick thread:
Everyone hates stamp duty because it's a terrible tax. Replacing it would be good for the economy.
But centralising council tax, says @antbreach.bsky.social - is a really bad idea. Not least because it hurts other parts of the devo agenda.

basically we've got systems that can do anything a smart 15 year old can do with a computer, but will refuse to do anything that a goody-two-shoes 15 year old wouldn't do in front of their mum
funny quirk of AI alignment efforts is that the value of a paywall is going up, imo. If I want to read something that I'm not subscribed to, I have… ways. If I want Claude to read it, I have to give it the correct credentials to log in or it will simply refuse.
This sounds fucking fantastic tbh. Imagine how much sme tax evasion goes away even people actively want to pay by card to get their VAT rebate
…pound?
The old Apple TV is fine, except that Apple should pay the BBC a billion pounds to update iPlayer to support 4k
NEW: Apple is about to debut its revamped push into the smart home, built around Siri AI. The long-awaited smart home hub with a screen arrives between the end of year and early next year, while a new Apple TV and HomePod mini are set to launch this fall. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
there is, it's nicely circular, and a length of copper tubing is covered by it:
not a subtweet! you can't fill a pool or a fountain _even if you don't use a hose_.
