#Iceland and the #Netherlands filed declarations of intervention on 11 March 2026 under Article 63 of the #ICJ Statute in South Africa’s genocide case against Israel, seeking to interpret the Genocide Convention in light of Israel’s Gaza campaign; they are among more than 50 interventions (including 18 by states) that support the view Israel’s actions in #Gaza (mass killing, starvation, forced displacement and widespread infrastructure destruction) amount to genocide.

Meanwhile, #US (who’s party to genocide in providing Israel with financial and military aid) joined #ICJ case to claim that genocide allegations against Israel are 'False'

#PsychologyToday All the red flags you’d expect to see, and then some: pedo, rapist, felon, bleach-peddler and #Epstein’s buddy #Trump exhibits elevated psychopathic traits
[…] So why do people keep getting duped by dark personalities? Why do we fall for narcissistic lovers, award promotions to pathological liars, and elect full-blown psychopaths to government offices? One answer is that humans are naturally trusting. Most of us try not to tell lies or knowingly stomp on people’s feelings, and we usually expect the same from others.

Your #LLM Doesn't Write Correct Code. It Writes Plausible Code.
Deployment is an act of faith, not engineering.
[…] THIS is the failure mode. Not broken syntax or missing semicolons. The code is syntactically and semantically correct. It does what was asked for. It just does not do what the situation requires. In the SQLite case, the intent was “implement a query planner” and the result is a query planner that plans every query as a full table scan. In the disk daemon case, the intent was “manage disk space intelligently” and the result is 82,000 lines of intelligence applied to a problem that needs none. Both projects fulfill the prompt. Neither solves the problem.

LLMs Don’t.
Model Collapse Ends AI Hype. George D. Montañez, PhD.
LLMs Don’t Think: They process tokens via statistical patterns, lacking internal states or understanding
LLMs Don’t Reason: They exploit superficial cues and rationalize answers post-hoc, failing at adaptive problem-solving
LLMs Don’t Create: They recycle and degrade existing information, unable to escape the "syntax trap" (manipulating symbols without semantic grounding)

The EU tech ecosystem is maturing, but swimming against the current of US defaults still takes work.
[…] If you're thinking about doing this: go in with your eyes open. The EU infrastructure ecosystem is real and maturing fast. But "Made in EU" is still a choice you have to actively make, not one you can passively fall into. The defaults of the tech industry pull you west across the Atlantic, and swimming against that current takes effort.

#SaveTheOpenWeb or what’s left of it
Many bots bypass protections like robots.txt - 30% of #AI scrapes in Q4 ignored these rules, with #OpenAI’s ChatGPT being the worst offender (42% of its scrapes violated permissions).
#ChatGPT (#OpenAI) is #Trump's biggest donor, and #ICE uses ChatGPT. It's time to quit. http://quitgpt.org

[...] "Currently, experimentation and rushed decisions have become commonplace in Dutch AI policy... These plans include changes to dismissal laws, the removal of intellectual property rights, and expedited licensing that serves private interests. The coalition views this as a violation of public values and a step toward social unrest."
A masterclass in resisting tech bro colonialism -or any new form of resource extraction: A Dutch coalition of scientists and civil society is pushing back against AI hype, deregulation, and monopolies.
5 core principles:
1. Value knowledge and expertise; distinguish hype from science.
2. AI should not receive special treatment in legislation (e.g., no IP rights rollbacks).
3. Promote economic viability and ensure added value for everyone.
4. Reduce energy/water/land use; recognize harmful impacts.
5. Involve civil society in policymaking.

@JapanProf@mastodon.social priceless … Defund #ICE, Refund #DEI.
Isn’t it obvious that real #antisemitism is a #MAGA feature, not Palestinian solidarity?
[…] Mr. Bovino, who has been the face of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, used the term “chosen people” in a mocking way, according to the people with knowledge of the call. He also asked, sarcastically, whether Mr. Rosen understood that Orthodox Jewish criminals don’t take weekends off, the people said.
Lest we forget:
A Jewish Electorate Institute survey found 74% of Orthodox Jews voted for #Trump, compared to just 26% nationally among Jewish voters.
