Summary of what they said:

It might be abused to accuse people of sending unsolicited content, when it was actually solicited.

A man might do this after ordering content from a sex worker.

There should be more risk assessment requirements.

----

I'm worried a "risk assessment" could become a one size fits all solution for many platforms, even ones where it doesn't make sense.

Perhaps, a platform might be less moderated, and that is part of the appeal of using it. Perhaps, a platform might be more adult.

Also, it creates a window for bureaucrats to interfere in platforms in annoying ways.

Also, oftentimes you might know a friend doesn't mind a particular kind of content. Unsolicited is not necessarily unwanted.

I see he is trying hard to avoid documenting the failure of the auto-driving system.

Frankly, I've always been a bit sceptical about self-driving cars.

I don't think it is impossible per say, with the right infrastructure (much like how trains have their own infrastructure).

But, the idea you can stick a bunch of fancy math in a car, stick it on any random road, and it can drive itself perfectly feels like a bit of a reach.

Looks like Tesla has been breached and over 100GB of sensitive data was taken.

Looks like the bill which just passed in Uganda which has the possible use of the death penalty for homosexuality was instigated by some of the same religious groups in the U.S. trying to censor pornography.

They were there stirring the pot, demonizing gay people, and some of their members have been known to support fairly extreme bills.

Well, you could say they're all extreme by nature of bigotry, although this is still particularly shocking.

I wonder how much of that money is real though.

A lot of it is in the form of stock which has value because everyone agreed it has value, however, much of this stock is bought with other stock which has value because everyone agreed it has value.

If someone were to try to "cash out", the value of these stocks would crash, and they wouldn't get anywhere remotely near these big valuations.

Kneel before the true god.

TVアニメ「がっこうぐらし！」

アニメ is "anime" in katakana.

"がっこうぐらし！" is Gakkou Gurashi! / School Live!.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNjHxhljAck Looks cute but is it as cute under the surface...?

If you're wondering why Twitter moderation has gotten so bad / censorious, it might have to do with Elon Suck up Ella Irwin practically admitting they're not really bothering with impact assessments any more to figure out if a moderation change has a detrimental impact.

Higurashi was such a fun anime / Visual Novel.

Ryukishi never made as good a horror after that, although Umineko has it's charm.

The other horror titles in anime can't really compare, in my opinion.

Maybe, someone should create a film based on conspiracy theories with an element of horror and murder.

Throw in lots of paranoia and "they're out to get us" and have them interpret every little "sign" as evidence of a nefarious plan.

In particular, I would pitch them as the real baddies, but I don't think you have to reveal that right away :)

Trek will always be the more fun one.

Borg episodes are particularly fun.
