Please Don't Film Your Crimes.
With the growing influence of Palestine Action and in the usa, Unity of Fields, it seems to be more popular these days for people to film or take photos during night-time actions.

Anyone who acts for liberation has my respect. Even more for those of you who refuse to be peaceful protestors. That's why I want you to get away with it.

Please don't film your crimes.

## OVERALL ANALYSIS:

> Strong statistical critique undermined by historical overgeneralizations and inflammatory rhetoric. Valid methodological concerns about sample size and bias. Recommendation: Consider statistical criticisms while ignoring hyperbolic comparisons.

Victorian Lighthouse

I’ve taken a lot of lighthouses in my years because I find their idea insane: build a structure in the most inhospitable places, put a few guards in it, and make them keep the light on. It’s crazy.

This insanity made me go round a lot of the Scottish East coast lighthouses to photograph them.

“Several #CEOs of major #tech companies in the US have warned that AI will wipe out millions of white-collar and #EntryLevel #TechJobs by as early as 2030. Are we right to fear for the next generation of young people? I am a tech pessimist.

Not only will #AI make many relatively well-paying #MiddleClass #jobs redundant, but its rampant use during critical learning and developmental stages of life threatens to leave young people dependent on it as a tool for basic #research, #writing and #analysis, and ill-equipped to face the challenges of a changing and unstable world.

This is only amplified by the infiltration of #SocialMedia and #TechCompanies into every corner of #social and #cultural life, and with it the addiction-driven commodification of our #time and #attention, packaged into #data insights and #marketing opportunities for sale to #ThirdParties.”

A quotation from Douglas Adams

What I mean is that if you really want to understand something, the best way is to try and explain it to someone else. That forces you to sort it out in your mind. And the more slow and dim-witted your pupil, the more you have to break things down into more and more simple ideas. And that’s really the essence of programming. By the time you’ve sorted out a complicated idea into little steps that even a stupid machine can deal with, you’ve learned something about it yourself.

Douglas Adams (1952-2001) English author, humourist, screenwriter
Dirk Gently, No. 1, Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency, ch. 4 [Richard] (1987)

Become A Good Photographer, Step Two: Quantity

I’ve watched, and sometimes was involved in, countless conversations about creativity that devolve into the same tired refrain: “Quality matters more than quantity”, “creativity can’t be controlled”, and my personal favourite “I prefer creating high-value work rather than churning out rubbish”.

This thinking is nonsense.

Das ist unfair! Ich bin mit dem Satz über implizite Funktionen durch die Prüfung gerauscht, weil ich mir dachte: Der kann unmöglich drankommen, weil der Beweis über 135 Minuten ging und in einer 30minütigen Prüfung so was nicht gefragt wird. Aber die Student*innen heute bekommen gesagt, dass der rankommt.

"Why are so many women choosing to stay single? Is it hatred… or just exhaustion?
We unpack the real reason modern women are stepping away from relationships with men. If you’ve ever asked “What happened to love?” or “Why are women so angry?” — this one’s for you."—Afrodizjha
