  33. <description><![CDATA[<a href="https://www.damiencharlotin.com/hallucinations/">AI Hallucination Cases</a> Paris research fellow Damien Charlotin is compiling misuse of AI from legal decisions around the world. "This database tracks legal *decisions* in cases where generative AI produced hallucinated content &#8211; typically fake citations, but also other types of arguments. It does not track the (necessarily wider) universe of all fake citations or use of AI in court filings." Click the arrows under "Details" at the far right to get juicy details about each case.<br/><br/>It's a simple page that includes columns for jurisdiction, outcomes and/or professional sanctions, any monetary penalty, and whether the offender was a lawyer or a non-lawyer acting as their own counsel (about half of the entries are the latter).]]></description>

  55. <title>May 31st 1985 Tornado Outbreak</title>
  56. <description><![CDATA[<a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/e8c12f670d5648a9b64877f42660eeeb">May 31st 1985 Tornado Outbreak</a> During the evening hours of Friday, May 31, 1985, just as people were getting ready to enjoy  a late Spring weekend, one of the deadliest tornado outbreaks in United States history took place. A total of 43 tornadoes carved paths of destruction across the Northeast U.S. and Canada.<br/><br/>These tornadoes affected eastern Ohio, western and central Pennsylvania, western New York, and southern Ontario Province killing 89 people, injuring over 1000, and causing over $600 million in damage. Since May 31, 1985, only two tornado days have been deadlier in the entire United States, and this day remains the deadliest tornado outbreak ever documented in Pennsylvania. This outbreak is considered a benchmark event for inspiring modern day technology and research, and by the 1990s, modern day Doppler weather radars were introduced, leading to improved severe weather detection and warning lead time.]]></description>

  111. <title>&quot;Internet is the new rock n&apos; roll&quot;</title>
  112. <description><![CDATA[<em>Telling Lies</em> was released as a downloadable track, which sold over 300,000 downloads, all the way back in 1996. A year later, the Earthling concert would be "cybercast" online, in an era when most home internet connections could barely handle streaming audio. These moves were groundbreaking, at the time, but also exactly what you might expect of a major artist trying to reach fans with their music. However, Bowie's interests in the Internet lay deeper than mere music distribution. He wanted a richer piece of the action, and his own ISP&#8212;BowieNet&#8212; was the answer. from <a href="https://hackaday.com/2025/05/19/remembering-the-isp-that-david-bowie-ran-for-eight-years/">Remembering The ISP That David Bowie Ran For Eight Years</a> [Hackaday]]]></description>

  149. <title>Messing With Texas: How Private Equity Made America Unffordable</title>
  150. <description><![CDATA[<a href="https://www.thebignewsletter.com/p/messing-with-texas-how-big-homebuilders">Dallas was one of the last big cities in America where a working family could buy a house.</a> No longer. And it's not because of zoning policy&#8212;it's because of corporate consolidation and private equity.<br/><br/>The biggest failure of the last administration &#8212; and arguably the primary reason that voters "threw the bums out" and put Trump in office &#8212; was the cost of housing. The price of a house jumped by about 50% during Biden's term, and spiking interest rates meant that the effective cost of buying a home more than doubled. Rents skyrocketed as well, jumping more than 26% over those four years. Since owning a home is an iconic part of what it means to be an American, the fact that this milestone has become woefully out of reach for most people in this country has had a massively disillusioning effect on our society.
  151.  
  152. Against this background, it's not surprising that, since the collapse of the Democratic Party in the 2024 elections, a bitter fight has broken out among Democratic insiders about &#8212; you guessed it &#8212; housing policy.

  164. <description><![CDATA[Hi, all. Metafilter is electing a new Board to run the site and replace its Interim Board.
  165.  
  166. Currently we have a three member Board, but the new Bylaws being discussed and amended <a href="https://metatalk.metafilter.com/26655/Updated-draft-bylaws-for-MeFiCoFo">here</a> include a possible range of 3-12 members. While we're figuring exact details (like the process for holding an election being discussed <a href="https://metatalk.metafilter.com/26648/Help-plan-MeFis-coming-election">here</a>), it would be helpful to know how many MeFites are interested in running for a seat on this new board. If that interests you, <a href="https://metatalk.metafilter.com/26654/A-thread-to-announce-candidates-for-the-board">please declare your intentions in this MetaTalk thread</a>. Note: declaring interest is not a commitment to serve on the Board.</em>]]></description>

  194. <description><![CDATA[A man famous for his love of style, and idolised for his own, was in fact guilty of crimes against it. His thousand delicious turns of phrase and snaps of dialogue are real and redeeming. But they're a part of a whole for which the words "too far" don't go far enough. At risk of flirting with the talent myth, it had once seemed that the logical conclusion to Amis's gifts was greatness. At least to his followers. They didn't know then what they can't unsee now: the oil was dry all along. from <a href="https://thecritic.co.uk/time-to-rethink-martin-amis/">Time to Rethink Martin Amis</a> [The Critic]]]></description>
