when @mollytaft.com showed me the permit estimates and was like "but also, take look at the numbers for these ENTIRE COUNTRIES" my jaw dropped. a must read: www.wired.com/story/new-ga...

Anytime I see "it's not just a, ..." pattern in writing from a person I know, I immediately lower my opinion of them. When it's "it's not just x, not even y, ...", I assume they are a 100% idiot. (Or worse, spamming me and treating me like an idiot by direct copy/pasting unfiltered LLM output)

Therapist: oh hey you’re done early doing the meditation Me: inner child’s haunted Therapist: what? Me: *loading a pistol and getting back to closing my eyes taking deep breaths* inner child’s haunted

cssday.nl is a refreshing website among the AI bloated react sites

I think it's bad for the President to threaten to annihilate an entire culture and i do not think you are being alarmist if you take his threats seriously and literally.

my nft coworker finding and following me on Twitter was really the nail in the coffin for Twitter for me

Ofc it was npm lol

people talk about ai like its magical, but tbh computers were already pretty magical, and having a body in the first place was already way more magical than either of those things (this skeet is ai neutral)

Thrilled to see Dan @makeitdoathing.com has finally opened the glitchwear.store store for his one-of-a-kind, computationally generated, buyer-customized knitwear. I'm delighted to confirm that these are gorgeous and comfortable garments, too.

One cool thing about being temporary being on this beautiful earth is the privilege of letting the mystery be for some questions…

Pour one out to the dillies not dallied 😔

I found the Zs fighting over Colorado Springs

I’m sitting between two dudes on this 6 hour flight the entire time one of them is just flipping a coin on a coin flipping app and the other is spinning some fidget gauntlet device that might have a deep significance to him and one of them keeps farting

Whenever you see an opportunistic techy say “✨The first EVR to use this tech in this way such and such” just know they’re wrong and the actual first person to do it was a sad grad student who hated their work too much to publish it in any flattering or hyped way

I wrote about “Slow LLM,” a new web tool that discourages AI use by… making chatbots really really slooooooowww It can be run as a browser extension or even deployed at the network level as a DNS service, making everyone experience mysteriously slow response times. @404media.co

I was reminded I could reread special books. Started rereading all about love. It’s crazy how it’s revolutionary to say abuse in the name of love isn’t love. I am so grateful I know it wasn’t love.

I showed a friend a song I made and he said it reminded him of one of my fav artists. Never kill urself 🌈 m.youtube.com/watch?v=XTda...

On linked in a founder bro posted he got a pi tattoo because “unlike most numbers that end or repeat, pi keeps going, much like founders” and I have not been able to get it out of my head how it has been proven in the 1800s that the set of irrational numbers is VASTLY larger than rational

”The distinction between programmer and user is reinforced and maintained by a tech industry that benefits from a population rendered computationally passive. If we accept and adopt the role of less agency, we then make it harder for ourselves to come into more agency.”

Six years ago today, 26-year-old Breonna Taylor was shot six times and killed by police officers who forced entry into her Louisville, KY apartment. Her death sparked nationwide outrage and calls for an end to police brutality and gun violence against Black people. #SayHerName #BlackLivesMatter

Do I know anyone interested in quantum ? I have been interested since I read “quantum computing since Democritus” but I’ve never had the opportunity to use a quantum computer- til now (thanks to @parq-talk.bsky.social) !! I would love to connect w others using quantum computers!

Tough time to be a grocery store dipshit 💸

My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse

In China it was surprising to me how much my trip was affected by China and Google not getting along

It’s interesting to see the revival / mainstream spread of live coding / algorave go very popular on social media. On one hand it’s very cool to see, but on the other, the absolutely terrible incentive structure of social media means most posts are now just dressed up people typing off a script :/

I’m at Iterations symposium 2025 in The Hague ! 3 days of workshops, talks and performances on creative technology!

I got to meet French cats and they are EXACTLY as you might imagine them

Oh you have to try the classic French cuisine Various Softwares … I hope it’s ffmpeg

btw i need to rewrite all the code for ide.charstiles.com that was the intention, infact the github repo is called fantasy_ide_1 because i rewrote it after making fantasy_ide_0 which is a rewrite of fantasy_ide

Visiting Parisian livecode meetup. Good to know that film students gently filming livecoders in their natural habitat for their class documentary on strange people who do strange things is a universal livecoder experience.

uzu pattern language + shadertoy style environment + integrating any uniforms automatically (thanks @boggo.bsky.social for the idea!) makes that 90s rave flyer vibe so easy...

In the Lourve and a man walks up to me, takes out his phone, takes a picture of me point blank and walks away. I need to date a DJ who hates me, only to get cheated on, to offset the ego boost I just got

Went to the Louvre & their ticket website was so broken and bad I self scammed and went to a third party website that sells the same tickets w a markup… I was so annoyed I was like damn i get why they robbed em

Looking at my role models and studying how they say no 🧐🤔

this is the first time somebody explained dot product in a way that made sense to me wow bobacupcake.com/shader-basics

if the discussions and calls I've been having lately are any indication, we're about to see significant renewed focus on developer communities. reality is setting in and companies are realizing AI is not a miracle; it's a tool, and tools are only valuable if and when people use them to build things

Okay yay also can I get the song ID for Mamdani’s walk up song

Bad day to be a parade that doesn’t exist that should exist in nyc

i opted out of the facial recognition & the agent then held my passport picture next to my face, scanned back and forth ~6 times, i was like you have a multitude more power from specialized neurons for human face recognition than AI- quick glance is better than what the top AI can do at the moment

AI use for prototypes, not code that can stand on its own legs. samsaffron.com/archive/2025...

Feeling normal and accepted is like drugs to me

Offset Marketplace is a new project in collaboration with @tega.bsky.social. We calculate the carbon savings of industrial sabotage, package these savings into carbon credits, and sell them as certificates. Profits are then donated back to the activists responsible for the actions. offset.labr.io

I was giving a lecture and keynote wasn’t playing my video and instead of restarting my computer, I spent 10 min telling students about how often times file types are just secretly zip files and if you rename a .key to .zip you can just open it up and find a video and play it using any video player

this was an after party to the wiki conference, WHICH was disrupted by a man with a GUN threatening suicide over wikipedia rules, anyways at the party all the wiki editors were upset over the tiny details the news got wrong and it was the most wikipedia editor way to respond to a traumatic event
