The most terrifying thing about the #AI world in #TheCreator was the friendly logo of the "us army" on its war machines.... which were probably made by Google or Apple @creatorthefilm

@duolingo how is this even possible?

[Mark (he/him) @keats87]

@YoniFreedhoff Ah right! Thanks

Thread: Specific data-based reasons why @ottawacity's graphic ad featuring a dead pedestrian regretting "jaywalking" is disgusting, discriminatory, inappropriate & results in focus on the wrong causes of pedestrian injuries and fatalities.

Oof. In #Ottawa you get ads like this. Sure, every member of the community can behave more safely, but it's the city's responsibility to enable these behaviors by designing safer streets.

@MichelleLesleyA @Carleton_U @cupe4600 @CU_President Likely after they charge late fees on tuition?

[Mark (he/him) @keats87]

@cbcotttraffic Saw lots of water pooling along the westbound 417 right hand lane from Parkdale to Maitland.

[Mark (he/him) @keats87]

Wow. Threatening students with late fees now are we? #CUPE @cupe4600 #carleton

@NoreenCauley @cupe4600 Congratulations to you and the bargaining team on the tentative agreement for unit 2. This is hard and stressful work - more than most realise.

[Mark (he/him) @keats87]

@davidson_tonya @cupe4600 My experience with Carleton was very much a "what one hand gives another takes" kind of time. The only part that kept me optimistic were the students, faculty, and instructors I worked with and learned from.

@Jangledog @Carleton_U @cupe4600 I had to take a part time job to make ends meet while attempting my PhD. I even tried developing my project around that job. But it was so stressful and tiring that by the time COVID came, I just couldn't keep up with my commitments to my own exams and dissertation project.

[Mark (he/him) @keats87]

@Sam_McAleese Quite the roller coaster! If folks weren't wary about brightspace before (e.g. dubious Bezos ties) they better be now. If I was an instructor I would avoid posting any original content on there even with IP language in the new agreement.

Remember when this was a cheap meal? At least I earned three air miles.

I’ve never seen anything like this at Pearson Airport in Toronto.

A mass of humanity and luggage upon arrival.

@hannahweston_ Merry Christmas!

[Mark (he/him) @keats87]

@AirCanada still trying to rebook our flight from the 24th.... I guess we can do Christmas in July?

[Mark (he/him) @keats87]

@TheRocketScien2 Can you stop shaming people for what they look like?
