[Reads with Ravi @readswithravi]

Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries:

“It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones.

“There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion.

“If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the ‘medicine closet’ and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That’s why you should always have a nutrition choice!

“Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity.”

Negli ultimi cinque anni, nel mondo, le ragazze iscritte a OnlyFans sono passate da sessantamila a quattro milioni e seicentomila.

È la più grande migrazione femminile verso la prostituzione digitale mai registrata. Ed è successa in silenzio. Chiamandola empowerment.

I'm thinking that because of automatic programming certain complicated and elegant programs we wrote in the past may basically become a form of art for future generations. Like the manuscript books of the middle age for us.

Italy’s "Piracy Shield" forces providers to block content in under 30 minutes without judicial oversight, which leads to overblocking (taking down legitimate websites alongside infringing ones).

We're appealing a €14M fine to protect the Internet from automated censorship and ensure infrastructure providers aren't forced to overblock.

Ma veramente pensate di riuscire a farci smettere di parlare approvando una legge anticostituzionale?
Abbiamo visto madri seppellire brandelli dei loro figli nelle buste della spesa e davvero vi illudete di farci smettere di criticare i responsabili con una legge?
Abbiamo contestato e contesteremo i negazionisti dell'Olocausto, contesteremo i negazionisti del Genocidio.
Vi contesteremo in ogni luogo pubblico.
Contesteremo con più vigore chi l'ha ideata, chi l'ha votata, chi la promulgherà.
Ne abbiamo facoltà.
Ci è stata data dalla Costituzione, quella Costituzione vergata con il sangue dei Partigiani, quella Costituzione che avete osato oltraggiare.

Google and OpenAI Employees Revolt: "We Will Not Be Divided"

The Pentagon's war with Silicon Valley is escalating fast. Over 500 verified employees from Google and OpenAI just dropped a massive open letter titled "We Will Not Be Divided," urging their CEOs to stand with Anthropic and refuse to build AI for mass domestic surveillance or fully autonomous weapons.

The letter accuses the Department of War of trying to play the top AI labs against each other—threatening Anthropic with the Defense Production Act while negotiating with Google and OpenAI behind closed doors.

[Josh Kale @JoshKale]

Anthropic: “We’ll work with the military on everything except autonomous killer robots and mass surveillance of Americans.”

The Pentagon: “We don’t plan to do those things.”

Anthropic: “Great, put it in writing.”

The Pentagon: “No.”

Trump: “BAN THEM FROM THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT.”

This may be one of the most consequential AI policy decisions in history

A King's College London study pitted Claude Sonnet 4, GPT-5.2, and Gemini 3 Flash against each other in nuclear crisis simulations. Tactical nuclear weapons were deployed in 20 out of 21 games. No model ever surrendered.
