We posted a job. Then came the AI slop, impersonator and recruiter scam.
Sounds on Screen: Béla Tarr & Mihály Víg.
Víg's compositions mirror the emotional landscapes of Tarr's films – black and white, meditative pieces with patiently lengthy shots, that plumb the unacknowledged psychological depths of everyday life.

There. Is. No. Alternative.
AI companies will fail. We can salvage something from the wreckage.
The AI can’t do your job, but an AI salesman can convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can’t do your job. This is key because it helps us build the kinds of coalitions that will be successful in the fight against the AI bubble.

The Discourse is a Distributed Denial-of-Service Attack.
It might look like a society that can generate infinite commentary but rarely produces wisdom. It might look like millions of people who can instantly articulate a position on any topic but who struggle to change their minds when confronted with new evidence. It might look like a discourse that has strong opinions about everything and deep understanding of almost nothing. It might look like a world where the most engaged and informed citizens are, paradoxically, the least capable of careful reasoning, because they've spent so much cognitive energy responding to controversies that they have none left for contemplation.
I think that's more or less where we've wound up.
Viewing. The. Source.

The Wall Looks Permanent Until It Falls.
The OECD—the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development—tracks outcomes across thirty-one wealthy democracies. These are our peers. On metric after metric, the United States stands apart from them. American exceptionalism is real, but not in ways worth celebrating. (…) America’s problems are solved problems. Universal healthcare is not some utopian fantasy. It is Tuesday in Toronto. Affordable higher education is not an impossible dream. It is Wednesday in Berlin. Sensible gun regulation is not a violation of natural law. It is Thursday in London. Paid parental leave is not radical. It is Friday in Tallinn, and Monday in Tokyo, and every day in between.

Fahrrad und Hummer: Funkelnder Baumschmuck aus Gablonz.
Eine beeindruckende Auswahl von Hunderten Objekten aus der Sammlung Waltraud Neuwirth aus der Blütezeit des Gablonzer Christbaumschmucks zwischen den 1920er und 1980er Jahren verwandelt den Kunstblättersaal in einer Gestaltung der Designerin Johanna Pichlbauer in einen glitzernden Kosmos.

TIL: Docker log rotation.
It turns out, Docker doesn't automatically rotate log files! As long as a container exists, the logs will keep growing for it. This means even if you stop a container and start it again, the logs are still there and getting bigger.
