Tratto urbano che percorro quasi quotidianamente per cui ricco di trucchetti che ti faranno risparmiare minuti preziosi quando stai rincasando dopo una giornata di merda e non hai voglia di perdere tempo nel traffico.
Indicativamente da Piazza Malatesta al Pigneto fino alla Regione Lazio alla Garbatella.
Nel percorso violerai il codice della strada e commetterai crimini di guerra, il tutto in favore di una maggiore sicurezza del ciclista contro quelle brutte bestie che sono le automobili. Giudica tu se è il caso di seguire i miei consigli e in caso fammi sapere.
Buona pedalata in città.

This is a naked PR move for #LLM-based #AI companies. It will normalize the use of LLMs in the classroom and enable them to market themselves to children.
Tech companies make deals with school districts, but the difference here is that the product they're selling is cognitive offloading.
I have no idea what teachers will gain by going to this "training center" other than indoctrination. The head of the #AFT should be put in timeout to think about what she’s done.

"We now act like neighbors should have acted in the first place. From my office at the local newspaper, I begged the sheriff to let us back when the neighboring area was back, pointing out that we were on the same power grid, not on Greenville’s grid. We ganged up on Waste Management together when it kept charging us but didn’t pick up our trash for weeks on end. We shamed the postal service into restarting service in our area. We let each other know when we saw a bear or mountain lion on our game cameras. We watched each other’s property since post-fire break-ins began when the sheriff ’s department was stretched too thin to do proper patrols. We complained en masse to Frontier Communications and PG&E for their lackluster delivery of services — as monopolies, they are not prone to put a high priority on customer service. Post-evacuation, we’ve learned a good deal about ourselves. Our humanity came back to us. Our strength was forged in fire."

The image features a graphic with a light green background and a network of interconnected circles, each containing a distinct icon. The title "ONBEHAARDE APEN" is prominently displayed at the top in bold black letters. The icons include a planet with rings, a DNA double helix, a butterfly, a volcano, a microscope with bacteria, a flask with a chemical reaction, a document with a quill, and a silhouette of a person's head. These icons are connected by white lines, suggesting a relationship or flow between them. The logo "nrc" is visible in the bottom left corner, with a red arrow pointing to the right. The overall design is clean and modern, with a focus on scientific and environmental themes.

"Linda Yaccarino, the CEO of social media giant X, abruptly announced her departure from the company on Wednesday less than a day after the social media platform’s AI chatbot started calling itself “MechaHitler” and promoting a policy of mass extermination.
Writing on X, Yaccarino said that she’d decided to step down “after two incredible years” at the company in which the social media platform formerly known as Twitter unbanned multiple neo-Nazi accounts and then algorithmically promoted their posts.
“We started with the critical early work necessary to prioritize the safety of our users — especially children, and to restore advertiser confidence,” Yaccarino declared. “This team has worked relentlessly from groundbreaking innovations like Community Notes, and, soon, X Money to bringing the most iconic voices and content to the platform. Now, the best is yet to come as X enters a new chapter with @xai.”

Before this law, stealing bodies wasn't technically illegal, because of a loophole where dead bodies didn't technically belong to anyone. A dead body can't belong to the deceased...because they're dead and can no longer own property.
