So I hooked up the RTSP audio from my backyard security camera to a local birdnet model and now i get push notifications whenever there’s a new species

not being able to tell if a user is using the bot label ironically is my vietnam

I remember being a CS freshman in 2005 and learning that my Java didn’t work because i used == instead of .equals() and I told the poor professor to his face “that is the dumbest shit i have ever heard in my life”.

It is the ONLY cool planet!! The evidence so far suggests WE HAVE THE ONLY ATMOSPHERIC OXYGEN IN THE GALAXY

I dreamt of the beach (1/4)

listening to Serious Natsec Podcasts and finally certain this is all a game to them. they should be talking like the last survivors of the last war, lamenting the hubris of man and confessing their sins, instead whoops it’s time for an ad break

i think this generalizes to a lot of things

it’s all over. “dumb recipe stories” was the last load-bearing pillar of the internet revenue model

this would have taken a master Renaissance painter a year

i like it when my most tortured sentence constructions start getting reposted. im totally cool with it actually, and it doesn’t bother me at all

These tools are acting out a role normally played by humans. How many human interactions have you had where yelling at someone resulted in better outcomes?

i think the analogy is more like high voltage DC, the touching of which contracts all your muscles such that you can’t let go even if you wanted

Pleased to announce that an Authenticated Transfer Protocol (ATP) working group has been created at the IETF! Grateful to everybody who participated in the BoF and chartering process. Details on next steps and how to get involved inside. atproto.com/blog/kicking...

“…what?”

hasan piker has finally achieved his most important policy goal: everyone is talking about hasan piker

what claude feels like resuming an 800k token session after it falls out of cache:

i hope someone printed out a bunch of bluesky posts for the astronauts to read

Reid Wiseman: "We have a beautiful moonrise, we’re headed right at it.” Truly one of the coolest things I've ever heard.

💫 💫 💫

yeah if i had the chance, id probably leave for the moon too

in our defense, the buttons are like, right next to each other

today is the day jerry truly became president

he’s going to announce we’re paying off the national debt with one big kalshi bet

some thoughts on the news

lotta news today of the form "obviously stupid and illegal thing determined to be stupid and illegal, years after the fact"

i did this, it works!

filing bugs against the leaked claude code repo and getting annoyed when they arent fixed

the parts of "atlas shrugged" that resonate (bear with me here) are the bits where critical infrastructure explodes after being put under the control of politically aligned morons. rand was just completely wrong about which political faction was more likely to do that

cortado splenda est

over the past 30 days, i have hammered more than 11,000 nails. i've drilled 150 holes, and sawed in half all 2x4s

Typed languages are no longer optional

As I said elsewhere I am basically radicalized about this. We fight now for personal computing and personal agency or we lose another decade to closed clouds We push now for an open internet and open models. Nobody is going to hand it to us because they’re nice

fresh off the heels of reenacting fuckups from 1973 and 1980, we are advancing rapidly to fuckups from 1986 and 2003

come help us write in bad programming language go at bluesky!

i can’t tell if we’re still in the “slowly” part or if we’ve advanced to the “then all at once” part of american hegemonic collapse

have you seen the new supply chain vuln? don't update tubu. it's literally on heebee. they got poodee's deps. they infiltrated dippy. roll back weeno. disable scripts in ~/.gumpyrc. it's in poob. do not install poob. do not update poob. uninstall poob right now. poob has it in for you.

Mandating this on new cars is an obviously correct bit of public policy that would save tens of thousands of lives annually in the US, and would also be instant electoral suicide

time to break it out again

all according to the plan
