I love this resource, https://thebullshitmachines.com/ (i.e. see lesson 1)..

In a series of five- to ten-minute lessons, we will explain what these machines are, how they work, and how to thrive in a world where they are everywhere.

You will learn when these systems can save you a lot of time and effort. You will learn when they are likely to steer you wrong. And you will discover how to see through the hype to tell the difference. ..

Also, Anthropic (ironically) has some nice paper(s) about the limits of "reasoning" in AI.

Just imagine paying the half of it, for supporting local workers for maintenance and fixups instead of a random nobleman's holidays in paradise...

Not peer reviewed though. Those are called preprints and not papers. Both would be research articles but the difference matters (to scientists at least).

There's JOSS which is reviewed. I love it!

Perhaps you may want to diversify on those that are feeding propaganda to you ;)

Creationists maybe

I think thats the case for most artists and their art... Specially in the music industry

Ancestor is not the same as non GMO. One could say that primates in Madagascar are ancestors to human. But there's no human population that is either GMO or went through the process of selective breeding.

This part of this blog post has always made me happy and I come back it from time to time. This is regarding the scene in Tron Legacy when one of the characters stops another from hacking. If you'd like to see the scene for context here it is. The time code is when the particular portion is. https://youtu.be/Qeh3E67brBs&t=231

In addition to visual effects, I was asked to record myself using a unix terminal doing technologically feasible things. I took extra care in babysitting the elements through to final composite to ensure that the content would not be artistically altered beyond that feasibility. I take representing digital culture in film very seriously in lieu of having grown up in a world of very badly researched user interface greeble. I cringed during the part in Hackers (1995) when a screen saver with extruded "equations" is used to signify that the hacker has reached some sort of neural flow or ambiguous destination. I cringed for Swordfish and Jurassic Park as well. I cheered when Trinity in The Matrix used nmap and ssh (and so did you). Then I cringed again when I saw that inevitably, Hollywood had decided that nmap was the thing to use for all its hacker scenes (see Bourne Ultimatum, Die Hard 4, Girl with Dragon Tattoo, The Listening, 13: Game of Death, Battle Royale, Broken Saints, and on and on). In Tron, the hacker was not supposed to be snooping around on a network; he was supposed to kill a process. So we went with posix kill and also had him pipe ps into grep. I also ended up using emacs eshell to make the terminal more l33t. The team was delighted to see my emacs performance -- splitting the editor into nested panes and running different modes. I was tickled that I got emacs into a block buster movie. I actually do use emacs irl, and although I do not subscribe to alt.religion.emacs, I think that's all incredibly relevant to the world of Tron.

It just crossed my mind that some people may not know it. It's a great resource (imho). Other platforms have fake reviews or ratings because of rea$ons ;) this one, so far, seems exempt of such biases (thankfully!)

Open Source Housing (www.youtube.com)

Derek Sherrell shows a low cost, open source house that he built in 90 days. He is giving away the plans for free for anyone who wants to build their own.

Open source is a wonderful concept that should be applied to everything, not just software.

I never understood the generation's gap. Are there people of a certain age more frequent? Instead, I believe humans reproduce more or less at a yearly constant rate. I understand that having the categories are meaningful for many but to me it's a 'double-dipping' statistical flaw.

Everyone is suggesting readers. I think you are looking for something like https://docs.rsshub.app it's capable of generating RSS feeds from pretty much everything.
