"Hey, I don’t work here "

I mean, that’s largely on the educational establishment like the college or uni too.

My education provider uses that TurnItIn bollocks - but even if a script is flagged as high risk for generative AI or plaigarism, it just gets marked for review rather than graded.

A human in the loop is absolutely essential for these tasks. It would appear that tools like TurnItIn will only really catch the most egregious of Ctrl-C Ctrl-V’ers, but any establishment that grades using AI only deserves all the shit they get.

My provider already uses overworked and underpaid lecturers to provide substandard feedback on my assessments as it is, I’d hate for the boat to sink any further.

If you ever get chance to visit Aberdeen - the Aberdeen University Zoological dept building (painted as the Elorg building in the film) is fucking awesome and the two-floor exhibits they have of natural history is genuinely brilliant.

Yeah there is an element of that, but I don’t think it’s entirely controversial to say that it all gets old very quickly.

Critical thinking takes work and research, which is fine for a specific topic or when you’re reading something with existing context like something historic… but keeping on top of something where all the belligerents are pushing out narrative on a daily basis becomes fucking soul-destroying to fact-check and evaluate.

I don’t think this is a “both sides” fallacy. It’s just being super fed up of the constant shitslinging and media manipulation.

That trumpet fanfare on the TNG theme was a banger, no doubt about it.

Was that Big Red One?

An Xbox spin off of one of the first two games?

Looks something fresh out of the Channelwood Age. Beautiful.

The UK policing system isn’t perfect, but the whole “two tier policing” is just a dog whistle for the gammon brigade.

…and are we fuck taking law enforcement advice from the fucking Americans of all countries!

Ah fair enough. Makes sense that it’s something straightforward. Cheers.

I’m trying to figure out why it has output incremental numbers.

It seems like an oddly specific pattern to push out.

A pal and I went to join a newly opened gym.

I says to the dude on the desk: “How much is the membership a month?”

The staff member says: “It’s £50 per month each, or £75 for a couple”

I’m motioning my pal over, and I’m like “dude are we like boyfriends now?”

“yeah”

Turns back to the dude on the desk: “we’ll take the couple’s membership please”.

Went cross code to save £12.50 a month each. Worth it.

That second line sounds like a comedic Bond villain line.

And it’s awesome.

Odd, this article is dated April 26?

A dear friend with a neurodivergence explained her journal to me as cue cards for different places, emotions, and experiences she’d had.

Much like a great dream, most of the memories would turn to smoke without a written pointer of what it was she’d done that day.

It’s a daily list of reminders

Who’d have thought me being a tosser and replying to the wrong comment would spark such a theological debate!

It sounds like Guile’s special move for when someone’s royally pissed him off.

A dude I used to work with left his wife to deal with the newborn.

It was so bad between dayshifts that he used to leave the house at 2am and just sit in a motorway service station with a coffee for a few hours just to get some peace before coming to work.

If I tried that, my other half would stab me in the face.

I mean, it’s an interesting viewpoint, but I’m not sure I’m entirely on board.

The professions listed are indeed ones where to tell lies could be a direct causal factor in causing harm, so I’m with you with that.

Outwith those safety critical environs though, I’m not sure I like the idea of free speech being curtailed by that degree. As much as I hate it. It’s a big leap from where we are now to “lock them up because they’re lying”. I quite like freedom to drop such wild mistruths such as “no mate the sky is green” or " your relative died peacefully" or “Arsenal are a good football team”.

Cool discussion point though.
