I just saw a TV ad for an Apple iphone. The point of the ad was that the phone now has "Apple Intelligence". What the ad said Apple Intelligence could do is remove a cat from a photo and then put it back.

We are destroying the living environment for this?

The human species is fuckt in the head.

ZenodoExpense Coding Syntax: Misclassification in AI-Powered Corporate ERPsAbstract This study examines how syntactic constructions in expense narratives affect misclassification rates in AI-powered corporate ERP systems. We trained transformer-based classifiers on labeled accounting data to predict expense categories and observed that these models frequently relied on grammatical form rather than financial semantics. We extracted syntactic features including nominalization frequency, defined as the ratio of deverbal nouns to verbs; coordination depth, measured by the maximum depth of coordinated clauses; and subordination complexity, expressed as the number of embedded subordinate clauses per sentence. Using SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations), we identified that these structural patterns significantly contribute to false allocations, thus increasing the likelihood of audit discrepancies. For interpretability, we applied the method introduced by Lundberg and Lee in their seminal work, “A Unified Approach to Interpreting Model Predictions,” published in Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 30 (2017): 4765–4774. To mitigate these syntactic biases, we implemented a rule-based debiasing module that re-parses each narrative into a standardized fair-syntax transformation, structured around a minimal Subject-Verb-Object sequence. Evaluation on a corpus of 18,240 expense records drawn from the U.S. Federal Travel Expenditure dataset (GSA SmartPay, 2018–2020, https://smartpay.gsa.gov) shows that the fair-syntax transformation reduced misclassification rates by 15 percent. It also improved key pre-audit compliance indicators, including GL code accuracy—defined as the percentage of model-assigned codes matching human-validated general ledger categories, with a target threshold of ≥ 95 percent—and reconciliation match rate, the proportion of expense records successfully aligned with authorized payment entries, aiming for ≥ 98 percent. The findings reveal a direct operational link between linguistic form and algorithmic behavior in accounting automation, providing a replicable interpretability framework and a functional safeguard against structural bias in enterprise classification systems.   DOI: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.16322760 This work is also published with DOI reference in Figshare https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.29618654 and Pending SSRN ID to be assigned. ETA: Q3 2025. Resumen Este estudio analiza cómo las construcciones sintácticas presentes en las narrativas de gastos afectan las tasas de clasificación errónea en sistemas ERP corporativos impulsados por inteligencia artificial. Se entrenaron clasificadores basados en transformadores sobre datos contables etiquetados, y se observó que estos modelos se apoyan con frecuencia en patrones gramaticales superficiales en lugar de en la semántica financiera subyacente. Se extrajeron métricas sintácticas como la frecuencia de nominalización (definida como la proporción entre sustantivos deverbales y verbos), la profundidad de coordinación (medida por la máxima profundidad de cláusulas coordinadas) y la complejidad de subordinación (cantidad de cláusulas subordinadas incrustadas por oración). Mediante SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations), se identificó que estos patrones estructurales contribuyen de forma significativa a asignaciones erróneas, elevando el riesgo de discrepancias contables y observaciones de auditoría. Para la interpretación, se aplicó el método propuesto por Lundberg y Lee en su artículo “A Unified Approach to Interpreting Model Predictions”, publicado en Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 30 (2017): 4765–4774. Como estrategia de mitigación, se implementó un módulo de corrección sintáctica basado en reglas que reescribe cada narrativa en una transformación de sintaxis justa, estructurada según una secuencia mínima Sujeto–Verbo–Objeto. La evaluación se realizó sobre un corpus de 18.240 registros de gastos extraídos del conjunto de datos del Programa Federal de Viajes de EE. UU. (GSA SmartPay, 2018–2020, https://smartpay.gsa.gov), y mostró que la transformación de sintaxis justa redujo las tasas de clasificación errónea en un 15 %. También mejoró indicadores clave de cumplimiento previo a la auditoría, como la precisión del código contable (porcentaje de códigos asignados por el modelo que coinciden con categorías del libro mayor validadas por humanos, con umbral objetivo ≥ 95 %) y la tasa de conciliación (proporción de registros emparejados correctamente con transacciones autorizadas, con objetivo ≥ 98 %). Los resultados revelan un vínculo operativo directo entre la forma lingüística y el comportamiento algorítmico en automatización contable, y proponen un marco replicable de interpretación y una salvaguarda funcional contra el sesgo estructural en los sistemas de clasificación empresarial.

"The Future is Federated: Year 2" - where I take a look back at a year of posts (and some cringy early ones), argue that the #Fediverse is collectivist in nature (as opposed to the individualism of Big Tech platforms) and discuss my plans for the future of this blog series... and what success for the Fediverse looks like to me (spoiler alert: slow organic growth and sustainability)

David's article really resonated with me because I've been thinking for a long while now to create a newsletter (or three) to surface barely heard voices.

On Substack, for example, the voices I hear are overwhelmingly from the United States, and it is incredibly hard to find voices from Asia and South-East Asia. It's a source of huge frustration for me because the most common narratives about my part of the world is from the United States, and a lot of times these narratives are distorted, skewed to American values and is not what is really happening in my region. Yet, when I try to speak up on Substack, I never get seen as the algorithm is prioritising US voices and Substacks. Worse, they are also boosting only popular ones, which means the most popular narrative is the loudest.

I have occasionally shared links to South-East Asian Substacks and blogs, and each time I do, I get messages of gratitude. However, I still wondered if my tiny act of rebellion would do anything to move the needle in terms of being heard in an English-speaking Internet overwhelmed by Western voices and narratives.

David's post reminded me that yes, I should put in some effort to help surface more unknown corners of the Internet. Maybe we won't get rid of the algorithmic complacency sweeping society now, but at least we'll do some tiny thing to help create a messy but human algorithm instead.

Hahah I realise that's my pic in that graphic! First, thank you @hyde for reaching out to me, and putting up with my forgetfulness. In this post I talk about #digitalgardens and #socialmedia and tea!

But I want to say that I really love his initiative. I read a post today about how urgent it is for human beings to stop relying on algorithms for content recommendations, and that we should go back to human curators, and @hyde is doing this. It's really time consuming, by the way, so I really applaud all the work he's putting in.

Hi #tech people!

I'd like to use a Visual Land Prestige Prime 10se tablet (Android 6.0 Marshmallow, 64 bit, 1.5GHz) to learn installing an alternative to Android.

It's such a cheap and old tablet I'm not actually sure if it's possible.

I think it is as long as its system can support another OS but with my very limited knowledge I've a hard time figuring out what are the minimum requirements for, say, /e/OS, Ubuntu etc.

Thanks for any #help advice & retoot!🙏

Why is everything on the cloud these days?

I’m kind of getting tired of every piece of professional and business software being a SaaS or cloud-based solution these days.

I have a good computer, it can run a lot of complex programs on it locally. I wish I had the option to do so.

Not everything needs to be synced 24/7. And I’d much rather have some tools include a cloud sync functionality that backs up changes with some kind of regular frequency for version control and cross-device access, but otherwise runs on my device.

These days, when I’m trying to go work somewhere without an internet connection or am traveling and have spotty data - I can’t access 90% of my work. Files don’t back up locally even when there’s a native desktop client app. Why?

It feels wasteful, sending so much data to the internet and back with constantly required online sync and web apps.

I feel nostalgic now, remembering the days of software that would require buying a license every couple of years, that would run on your device and could be accessed even from the top of a remote mountain if you wished, and that didn’t log you out every other week.
