Finally, a real use case for JavaScript

I have to give a big shout out to Aberystwyth University library for emailing us students with the message: Don't like/trust/approve of AI? Don't feel pressured into using it. You're not missing out if you don't. It's potentially wasting your time and eroding your confidence with false flattery.

“My personal loathing is how Amazon blocks off popular films from its own subscribers unless they stump up a £3.49 rental charge on top of the £8.99 we’re paying monthly. At the time of writing, this includes brand new blockbusters Babe and Sleepless in Seattle.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Felt cute today, might delete later. 💅 #OmArt #art

Are there jobs out there that offer remote but don't want you to use AI? Cause current job now wants me to cool it on even mentioning that AI is not so great.

Baturday Bat World Sanctuary

Paging @shanaqui.bsky.social

So my brain lied to me, I actually hate software development, and the last fifteen years of my life have been a waste. Yes things are great why do you ask?

Fuck you, google. I mean, fair enough, but also fuck you.

Starmer in the pay of US techbros once again

Did they just.... redo the original Git Flow graphic with AI for no reason?

thanks, endorsed

For fat people, that means that the gnarliest anti-fat assholes in our lives are being told, day in & day out, that their bigotry and biases are correct and virtuous. They get to reassure themselves that their bullying of fat people is somehow a service to us.

my vibe going into 2026

Happy Valentine’s Day, from us to you. Tag your exes. Xoxox

If The Bible had been written in the North of England Noah’s Ark wouldn’t have made the edit. It’s already rained for more than 40 days and 40 nights this year and we’re only on day 43

Top Ten Tuesday: Books I Made My Wife Read. This week's theme is a Valentine's freebie, so I've used it to give a glimpse at a very bookish relationship with @ehlyah.bsky.social! breathesbooks.com/2026/02/10/t... #booksky 💙📚

The fun part about this is that it does literally nothing to protect teens or kids. None of these steps EVER consider providing people with resourceful tips of danger signs 'disengage' or 'report' etc. Fucking morons. Creeps have been on kid's sites since Neopets in the 90s FUCK OFF WITH THIS SHIT.

Posted in October - "Discord says hackers stole government IDs of 70,000 users" arstechnica.com/security/202...

Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month - all accounts set to "teen-appropriate experience" by default www.theverge.com/tech/875309/... discord.com/press-releas...

Don't make a Discord when you could make a wiki, forum, etc, instead, folks! Push back against the Discordification of everything and stop putting all your info in a single silo!

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. "No, I don't want to use AI."

having a weird night thanks to brain, tell me your favorite weird/fun facts? I love to learn shit I’ll go first: “skosh,” meaning “a tiny bit” is derived/shortened from the japanese word “sukoshi” and was brought to the us by soldiers stationed in japan post-ww2

Do you remember when people were saying "I think my phone is listening to me, i'm getting ads for stuff I spoke about" and people said "They arent listening to you, they're just this good at predicting your interests"? Well, it happens they were doing exactly that. www.cbsnews.com/news/google-...

He should get Chat GPT to do it, everyone knows it's just as good as human writers

I have been laughing at this for a solid five minutes.

How? How do you double-check the accuracy, if you're not already an expert? Ask a different GenAI? Or do you, you know... Have to go and do the research you would have done anyway, pre-AI? Because I'm buggered if I can think of how you do that in a way where the GenAI saved you time.

Andrew has really taken one for the team (ie everyone) here. This thread continues long past the point of despair, and is worth every post

The idea that I have to verify my age to watch porn isn't the issue. It's the creep of what we decide isn't appropriate, especially around queerness - and we're allowing it to be written by people who regard being trans or queer primarily as porn categories.

Good news: the UK Government is now offering free short courses on how to use the rabid monkey that comes taped to every computer now for some reason! You'll learn how to... - dodge the monkey's angry fists! - understand its tortured screams! - write invoices in bits of poo he's left on your desk!

I really can't know that there's a new Luna Lapin book. I've only made one doll and two dresses out of the two books I already have. :x

Just a heads up, tomorrow is Large Boulder the size of a Small Boulder, hope you've done your shopping and holiday meal prep.

You're watching BBC Scotland.

It is extremely exciting to be goverened by people who literally do not understand how computer make beep.

Last repost: this is why I have such doubts every time our c-suite say that our customers are loving the AI customer support they've implemented.

Wow, sure would be pretty crazy if a ton of experts in the artificial intelligence field relentlessly warned everyone about this state of affairs being inevitable over and over for years.

Doing a course on ADHD motivation (for work, haha winning), but oh no it is perceiving me. Help. What is my learning style? Don't know, never learned a thing in my life. Have to come up with ten things I don't want (meaning their opposites are what I want) to find my real interests. alkjdfas help me

People performatively mispronouncing Irish names is one of my pet paimhs

If I want a bullshit unreliable response from a walking environmental catastrophe, I'll ask my teenage son.

this is fucking incredible

Politicians are calling for a senior police officer to be sacked BECAUSE WEST MIDLANDS POLICE USED MICROSOFT CO-PILOT, WHICH WE'RE ALL BEING TOLD IS GREAT AND THE FUTURE. The same politicians who are gung-ho and balls deep for piping hot AI. There's your fucking story.
