Kodémus har alltid Lillebror med seg. Lillebror vet alt. Mye bedre enn Kodémus. Når Kodémus er i tvil om noe, spør han Lillebror. Alle har lillebrødre. Det er påbudt. – Tor Åge Bringsværd, «Kodémus, eller: Datamaskinen som tenkte at hva faen» (Probok, 1968; sitert etter Sf: Samlede fortellinger, Gyldendal, 1999, s.140–152 på s. 140) 1/3 #AI #KI #LLM #norsktut

Parlamentarna večina he 15. junija po nujnem postopku in ne da bi kogar koli vprašala sprejela neobrazloženo spremembo zakona o lokalnih volitvah, ki tujcem tretjih držav odvzame volilno pravico. Zdaj pa bi naenkrat o izvršenem dejstvu vprašala volilce na svetovalnem referendumu, ne glede na to, da je zakon sprejet in da se bodo zbirali podpisi za naknadni zakonodajni referendum. Norčevanje iz javnosti. 🤯 In naknadna zloraba tujcev za mobiliziranje svojih volilcev 11. oktobra.

22. julij je tisti dan, ko v norveških medijih spet berem zadnje besede ustreljenih najstnikov, pričevanja preživelih, ki se počutijo krivi, ker so živi. Sledim časovnici pokola in se (z nekega drugega mladinskega tabora na Utøyi) spomnim krajev umorov. Pred 15 leti sem neprespano noč bral teroristov manifest, poskušal sem razumeti, kako so zablode o nekem »kulturnem marksizmu« vodile v to norost. Neprijetno nadrealistično je živeti v državi, kjer teroristovo zablodo ponavlja predsednik vlade.

Under far-right PM Janez Janša, Slovenia *will* cut off its nose to spite its face. https://english.sta.si/3580051/slovenias-reputation-tarnished-in-sahel-rep-appointment-halt-fajon-says

Skrajno desna koalicija je komaj vlado sestavila, pa bi mi že vzela lokalno volilno pravico — po skrajšanem postopku in kar mimogrede, brez analize, brez razlage. Po aferi BlackCube bi posebej rad slišal Jelko Godec, kako razlaga, zakaj je tujcem z dovoljenjem za stalno prebivanje treba odreči sodelovanje na slovenskih lokalnih volitvah, na državnozborske pa lahko vplivajo tuji obveščevalni agenti z nezakonito operacijo v sodelovanju z njeno stranko. #sipol https://www.dz-rs.si/wps/portal/Hom...

Book tip: Wu Cheng&#39;en, Monkey King: Journey to the West, trans. Julia Lovell. If you only read one 16th-century Chinese novel this weekend, pick this one. It&#39;s the most fun one can have without stealing the immortal wine from a celestial Peach Banquet to which one was pointedly not invited. For those who think the form of art should fit the content, Lovell&#39;s translation mirrors its hero: highly skilled, playfully mischievous, and somersaulting breezily over the long slo...

Når du har kontrollest to ganger 345 sider incest, familietragedie, arvestrid og hyttekrangel med blikket flakkende mellom originalen og oversettelsen i stereo på skjermen, og du endelig kan lagre og melde til oversetteren: Hjorth er gjort.

Breakfast table. Me (reading paper): Huh. Jaguar tourism. Her: Where do they go? Me: Brazil. Her: Isn’t that where they’re from? Me: … Me: Human tourists. Looking for jaguars. Her (mildly disappointed): Oh.

To read the news while rereading @cstross@wandering.shop’s The Labyrinth Index (plot: U.S. gov’t captured by shadowy security-agency cultists to make Cthulhu great again) is like a bad trip. “[A commander] said [to tell the troops] that ‘President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,’” the NCO continued. “He had a big grin on his face when he said all of this which made his message seem even more crazy.” https://new...
