New interview with me in CU Boulder Today: "Why Meta fired its fact-checkers and what you can do about it" colorado.edu/today/2025/01/10/…

Basically, shilling the fediverse.

in reply to Nathan Schneider

Personally, I'd regulate them along boundaries, so US free speech absolutism cannot leak out of the US. EU rules apply in EU, say, and are rigorously applied in each geography. If that means these corporations see no business model in EU, then great!

I'd at the very least legislate (preferably universally) that the algorithm be open and subject to scrutiny and legal control.

New Math Suggests 'Impossible' Third Type of Particle Could Exist


Quantum mechanics has long classified particles into just two distinct types: fermions and bosons.
Now physicists from Rice University in the US have found a third type might be possible after all, at least mathematically speaking. Known as a paraparticles, their behavior could imply the existence of elementary particles nobody has ever considered.

youtube.com/watch?v=KnozAHKTz9… the thing about "clearing the uncanny valley" is that the audacity with which various teams claim they've done it is nearly perfectly inversely proportional to how badly they've stumbled straight into it. and this same cycle has repeated for decades now.
meanwhile, pixar et al have been content to confidently hold a sick handplant at the near edge of the valley, with well-acted stylized characters. at some point you have to ask what ideologies are being upheld here.

Google and The Linux Foundation team up for 'Supporters of Chromium-based Browsers' gamingonlinux.com/2025/01/goog…

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

November 2020: the Servo project moved to the Linux Foundation, pretty quickly everyone understands that the project is abandoned..

September 2023: the Servo project joined Linux Foundation Europe, and is now one of the most active projects there.

January 2025: Google together with The Linux Foundation have announced a new initiative to fund future development of the Chromium ecosystem.

I wonder how independent Linux Foundation Europe is from the Linux Foundation?
