@THErealDVORAK It's an altered fake, debunked quite some time ago. (https://t.co/ASbSmcL8BE) You used to know enough about technology to find out those kinds of things. But going to the dark side has clearly altered your brain chemistry for the worse.

Microsoft claims Big Tech and the feds need to regulate A.I. If so, why did the company kill its most important ethics team regulating A.I. months ago, as I reported a few days ago in my Computerworld column? https://t.co/VkV8n5TbqO

What happens to everyday life when missiles rain from the sky? I review "War Diary" by Yevgenia Belorusets, which chronicles life in Kyiv, Ukraine's capital, after the Russian invasion. It blends the visceral with the mundane, dread replacing normalcy.

@elonmusk You've already addressed the "too-frequent" ad problem -- chased away most of your advertisers so your revenue has plummeted and you're running on empty.

@ron_miller I was writing a column, not a book the length of the bible, which is what would be required to detail all the advice Musk could use. But I've been wondering if his plan is to turn the site into a hellscape of hate. As Infowars and Trump show, there's money to be made that way.

What price have civilians been paying for the war in #Ukraine? Only literature can capture it and offer solace and understanding. Read my review of two books, Andrey Kurkov's "Grey Bees" and Yevgenia Belorusets' "Lucky Breaks,” that do that and more.
