Hear me out: Degenerative AI

adding fake photorealism to a police sketch based on a verbal description is definitely one of the less ethical uses of AI https://mobile.twitter.com/SashaMTL/status/1620616127138381827

Oooh. Just learned about this Mastodon Threaded Reply Viewer (made by @b0rk and discovered it thanks to a mention from @filippo). Not sure how practical it is currently for me, but again, I'm impressed at all the cool development going on these days.

I have often attributed my attachment to, my passionate enthusiasm for, the dangerous mysteries of ocean to that production of the most imaginative of modern poets.

It is often a burden, knowing as much as I do about twill fabrics. Twill fabrics are durable. The diagonal pattern of the weave creates a strong and stable fabric that can withstand the wear and tear of everyday use. This makes twill an excellent choice for clothing items that are subject to heavy use, such as pants, jackets, and workwear. But they are also useful in upholstery and home goods, where they can withstand the weight and pressure of daily use without losing their shape or appearance.

Hey businesses, just a heads up that while people WFH during COVID, productivity was up and people worked more hours.
If you force me to come back into the office, then I’m only going to work WHILE IN THE OFFICE - oh, and I’ll also take my full hours lunch too, and leave bang on 5.30pm.
No more answering the phone or emails outside the office, as that would constitute WFH.
Glad we had this chat.
