Sarah O'Connor (FT) warns students taking up AI to get them through their studies may be counter-productive;
Good careers depend on employees being able to demonstrate they add value & if they depend on AI to deliver what they claim to know, why would employers not just 'employ' artificial intelligence directly?
While clinging to AI might be understandable in a time of student stress & anxiety, educators (universities) should help them resist the siren call of AI!
I completely concur!

#Mutualaid for March
Just $10 bucks away from covering the PO box renewal fee. Thanks so much for the help so far!
Having been housing insecure for a bit having a PO box is a tremendous safety net so I really appreciate the help maintaining that.

Thanks so much for the support so far this month!
We making slow progress on our March fundraising goal, can we break $500 before this weekend? We've got a couple bills (cell phone and credit card) due in the next few days.
So far y'all have really helped me survive capitalism while taking time to focus on our tiny human and look after my partner as they recover from childbirth.

URGENT #MutualAid
We're urgently needing to send in our rent check, but there's more.
With @nat's postpartum depletion, I'm falling behind on work, and we need childcare ASAP to start catching up.
We got to 70% of our Feb goal; this month we're only 15% of the way.
So right now we need a HUGE push. I have over 4k followers and 18 monthly subscribers. If even 1% of y'all made a monthly donation, that would double my monthly patrons.

PS Thanks so much for your boosts and support. Got some racist hate on my fundraising posts this week. I really appreciate y'all recognizing that it's fucking hard to ask for help and it means a lot when this community comes thru for us.

EXTREMELY URGENT MUTUAL AID
Trying to send rent check TODAY but we still need $1920 (have $450 on hand). I know a lot of people are struggling and don't have much to give, but if you're able to help, it would mean SO much.
Help a Black activist & my partner & baby!

In today's society The Bible is a book people can hold in their hands. So it is not as obvious to them that The Bible is not a book but is a collection of books. Revelation 22:18 is referring to the book of Revelation not the entire collection of books.
As to whether the Catholics added Apocrypha or it was removed by the Protestants is really of no concern to me. I am an Atheist, more specifically a Secular Buddhist and have no horse in the race. Though it is nice for people to practice tolerance and allow everyone to believe as they choose to believe.

What debian flavor should I try out? Keep in mind my laptop is a 2-in-1 with touch and a fingerprint sensor
as much as i might be killed for this, Ubuntu
regular Ubuntu works just fine, and the annoyances can be removed with 5 minutes of your time
i personally daily drive Ubuntu and likeโฆ itโs fine
itโs nothing to write home about. but it isnโt broken or โbadโ it just works ive had no real issues with it other than my own fuckups
The latest version of Debian will be just fine. Is there a reason you are limiting yourself to just Debian derivatives?

There's a real chance millions of women voters will be disenfranchised soon. That's certainly the goal.
It is true: The proposed nazi SAVE Act, now considered a priority for Republicans in the House, will make it harder, if not practically impossible, for millions of women to vote.

Yesterday I figured I'd try setting up something I could use to work with my critique group. I was looking for collaborative editing, chat, etc. Nextcloud looked like a good candidate, so I gave it a go.
Well, Nextcloud is obviously designed to be an enterprise solution. That thing repeatedly hammered my poor little VPS into the ground on the simplest of operations. I took it out and restored Mattermost, which is great for chatting with a curated group and some other Slack-like tasks, but doesn't support collaborative editing.
The search continues.

Sometimes the question comes up if we have any DNS servers to point at. The answer is no, we only do authoritative DNS (for now anyways 
).
There are multiple other projects that do recursive DNS in the EU or based out of the EU though, like
