  • The City of Barcelona traded 3 lanes of vehicle traffic for a green pedestrian corridor. Businesses sued, & eventually won in court. Then they admitted that they actually like the change.

  • Business always kicks and screams at any change because capitalism supports fascism.

  • Math terminology is so shitty sometimes.

    The names in the number hierarchy are one of my favorite examples: natural, integer. rational, real, complex/imaginary. WTF? These terms are all misleading and completely removed from the underlying mathematical concepts. It's terrible for math education, etc.

    I would propose instead something like: counting numbers, negatives (?), fractions, number line, number plane.... Or anything remotely equivalent, where the terms reflect the actual mathematics instead of some outdated, pseudo-scientific intuition.

    "These numbers are real and these numbers are imaginary." - Math still in the 21st century. It's embarrassing. Symptomatic of wider rot in math education.

  • Heineken to slash up to 6,000 jobs in AI 'productivity savings' amid slump in beer sales

    Jump

  • Where I live, they own a big chunk of all the shitty beers at shitty gas stations. They're a major reason why independent breweries are almost nonexistent.

    Fuck Heineken.

  • Spotify says its best developers haven't written a line of code since December, thanks to AI

  • Spotify has public databases? That's so nice of them. Really progressive.

    So where can I download my fave albums?

  • The point of these apps is to leech as much money as possible.

    An opposing goal would be to make the app better for users.

    Jump

  • This is spotify. It's just a music player. The overwhelming bulk of the code was probably written like 20 years ago by a 15 year old.

    Jump

  • Is that supposed to be impressive? Spotify is among the dumbest, shittiest apps. It's literally just a music library player.

    Spotify doesn't exist because it's some genius app. It exists because of legal control. They have no reason to make the app better. Indeed their shitty capitalist motives continue to enshittify the app.

  • AI hype is such bullshit. Who cares if Anthropic was 'used' in a military operation? I'm sure Outlook search was 'used' in this military operation

    Jump

  • That's exactly why they use these apps. The primary application is abdication of responsibility for atrocities.

    "We were just following orders the genius of 'AI'..."

    Nobody was trying to stand up to him. Some white dudes literally invited him to their university.

    Discovered the a formula for pi.

    FTFY. There are many methods for calculating pi. Some are thousands of years old.

    Said math was the language of the gods.

    It's not. It's literally a formal language made by people.

    Best mathematician since euler.

    That's subjective but I would put a number of people before this guy: Cantor, Godel, Turing, et al.

    None of these people are gods.

    Died at 33 because they couldn’t fucking accept being made the fool.

    He died because there's no cure for TB.

    "Race" is fake. Racism is very very real.
