This was among the reasons why feddit.bg was started, a community far from the numbers on Reddit, but is locally hosted and transparently administered. This limits the risks of such events happening in the future. Part of the fediverse: feddit.bg/c/fediverse

Искаме да насочим вниманието ви към нов български проект - Фeddit на feddit.bg. Това е социална мрежа подобна на Reddit, но фокусирана върху българската публика и изцяло администрирана от българи. В нея няма реклами, нито корпоративни или бизнес интереси. 1/2

Driving in Italy is like speaking English in a non-native speaking country. It's detrimental to your abilities (thread)

Then there are also those who do get to drive fast as they'd like surpassing everyone from the rightmost lane. Expectedly, this last category is composed mostly of sportscars. The actual fun is that plenty of van drivers are also trying to repeat that trick with limited success

As part of my process of moving out of twitter, I've unfollowed all my contacts that are: verified accounts, marketing accounts, journalists. Given that this platform is literally broken for communication, I've lost my tolerance to people paying for it

Bulgaria to appoint its 5th #ProsecutorGeneral after fall of #communism. All of them eccentric, to say the least, appointed in a process that illustrates what in South European languages is known as #BulgarianVote #MaggioranzaBulgara #VotarALaBulgara (thread)

Bulgaria’s election next month is boiling down to the role of media mogul Delyan Peevski and his capacity to undermine the nation’s fragile democracy. The tycoon has come to epitomize Bulgaria’s captured state. But taking him on is no easy matter. 🔗 trib.al/Q1lTniu

You need to understand how crazy this antisemitism bill is that just passed the House with wide bipartisan approval. The law requires the Department of Education to adopt the definition of antisemitism provided by something called the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance.

It’s 00:36AM in Georgia, tens of thousands of Georgians remain near the Parliament defending the country from the Russia-style authoritarianism. Georgia belongs in the European Union 🇬🇪🇪🇺

Please join me in praying for the well-being and swift release of Laylan Nasser, a member of St Peter’s Anglican Church in Birzeit, in the West Bank, snatched from her family by Israeli troops at 4am on Saturday without giving any reason or saying where she is being held

“They have names, they had dreams.” In Sydney, Australia, activists unfurled a massive banner featuring the names of thousands of children who have lost their lives due to Israeli military actions in Gaza.

Animators from Mexico, Lebanon and Colombia created the @grampalestina initiative to honor the children of Gaza and demand a ceasefire. More than 13,000 Palestinian children have been killed by Israel during its attacks on Gaza since October 7.

I am a fan of arXiv, but one inevitable downside--especially in a world full of #AI influencers taking click-bait titles of new arXiv entries at face value--is that papers claiming theoretical analyses will just be assumed to be proving what they claim, even if they are actually not (because often the influencers can't actually be bothered to read or understand the claimed theorems and their settings). Hard as it may be to believe in these days when everyone wishes they already are AI experts, understanding claims in technical papers requires actual #AI background--not just twitter follower count or even eminent expertise in other areas.
