Woke up to great news! Ghent University is cutting ALL ties with Israeli universities! 🎉 Important: All proven complicit after intense screening by the human rights committee! A human rights victory after months of protests, student occupation and an exam surveillance strike ♥️
Victory! Ghent University is finally severing ties with Israeli universities (producing military equipment used in Gaza!). Thanks to months of pressure, intense student and staff protests, and finally our students' occupation. 👏 standaard.be/cnt/dmf20240516…

Watching in real time as "slop" becomes a term of art. the way that "spam" became the term for unwanted emails, "slop" is going in the dictionary as the term for unwanted AI generated content
it’s cool how every google search now starts with a wall of LLM slop that is completely useless and takes up half the screen

Imagine that the day you’re slotted to lecture on 4’33” there is a protest going on at your school that has gathered worldwide attention, and instead of taking the alley-oop for one of the most prescient lectures ever, you say “lecture canceled, it’s not quiet enough”
