Fun times ahead for #Adobe designers. Today, if you open a PSD (even one that's 20 years old) with an obscure PANTONE colour, it will remove the colour and make it black. Pantone want US$21/month for access, and Solid Coated goes behind the paywall in early November.

This sweater developed by the University of Maryland is an invisibility cloak against AI.

It uses "adversarial patterns" to stop AI from recognizing the person wearing it.

Birds are fed by their parents in their infancy. When the time comes to feed themselves, there can be some confusion when the food does not go into their mouth by itself.

"Of course it's expensive to rent your computers from someone else. But it's never presented in those terms. The cloud is sold as computing on demand, which sounds futuristic and cool, and very much not like something as mundane as 'renting computers'." https://t.co/I7xDQEjPBa

There is a non-zero probability that World War 3 can be initiated or averted due to a few tweets. I may be wrong, but I believe this platform is powerful and our behavior on it is important. Let's try to de-escalate. Empathy, reason, and compassion are needed now more than ever.

There's no fixed way to calculate this, but 52 million carved Chinese characters is around two gigabytes of information. So the Tripitaka Koreana has transmitted two gigabytes of data over nearly 8 centuries with no corruption or loss: nothing else created by man comes close. 8/

Ever wondered how a QR code works?
No, me neither but it's low-key fascinating.

One of the most unfortunate aspects of society's recent fascination with censorship and online mobs is that many of the smartest people among us choose to stop voicing their opinions in public.

The strike ended up with the company losing almost $780 million. In the 15 days that the strike lasted, 80% of UPS shipments went undelivered.

Now it may be happening again. https://t.co/K2xiws1aOc
