This looks like content farming engagement bait but I swear it has it all. Drama, betrayal, murder, a gripping courthouse scene, and a continent scale war.

This is so core to the AI problem. Everyone is selling ‘let’s replace the economy with AI!’ meanwhile actually using the tools is complicated and delicate, but really useful once you get it in the right place!!

Love this new for you feed. I’d been getting kinda bored and annoyed by bluesky because the content was so bad. Now it’s all funny memes and interesting conversations again!!!

“the juice” (ominous, cautionary, redolent of deep waters wherein the apex predators swim)

Wow. People were not joking about how much better the for you feed is

We need this SO BAD

My mom is so cool y’all

I’ve decided to start princess maxxing

everyone should read sharma's home rule and adopt her framework of people as *migrantized* by the world nation-state system, like how people are *criminalized* by state justice systems, to mark them as undesirable and disposable, targets for policing, trafficking, confinement, and liquidation

I hate the way everyone talks about AI and yet I have to talk about it because LLMs do have some usage in some really interesting ways. At least in this space I will make sure we’re honest about them.

I think I have to approach LLMs in the same way I approach guns: - expands agency - Changes social dynamics - Complicated to talk about

Panicking in Rust: It’s Really Not So Bad Is It?

I think my favorite cinematography technique is the match cut. Something so satisfying about that instantaneous change

Watching ‘It’s a wonderful life’ since I got into clubbing is funny. Pottersville actually looks a lot more fun with all the clubs and bars 😄

Why do men have to keep being hot. It’s so unfair, I could just be a lesbian but then every now and then it’s just 🥺🥺

LAST MINUTE SHOW COME SEE MY BAND, THE LIGHTING SECTION, TONIGHT AT 8 AT KNOCKOUT IN THE MISSION WE HAVEN'T PRACTICED 🤘🏻

I see why older people just sit on benches in the park for no reason. it’s nice to just be out in the world, hearing kids playing, feeling the sun on your face, doing nothing at all

holy fuck buttermilk pancakes are so good

It is kind of insane to me that if I get the context just right, I can ask a computer to fix a bug _and it does_.

Learned a lot leading this project.

THIS BUT UNIRONICALLY

It’s fascinating how much video games tilt the scales in favor of the player. I love strategy games and am interested in IRL conflict, and two have clashed a little bit by making it a little harder to enjoy video games 😅

Holy fuck @razorgirl.diy 👀👀👀

God I wish Revice made denim for anyone other than skinny girls. So many of the designs are so cute 😭

Once again, YIMBYs proven right

REVIEWS FOR METROID PRIME 4 HAVE DROPPED THIS IS NOT A DRILL

On LLMs in software, I actually think this is going to be net positive for our industry _even if every single line generated is garbage_.

I wonder if we’re ever going to hit a rupturing point, where digital / technical possibilities are so ever present that we have to change how we think and talk about it to cut things finer.

Labor organizing is an important terrain in struggles toward liberation, but labor-centric folks lose me quickly when they frame it, as they often do, as The Struggle. On its own (meaning not explicitly used as a means of wider solidarity and attack) it’s mostly a harm reduction strategy.

Damn, command and conquer really just executes your command right in front of you.

So real for this

Fantasy is such an interesting genre. Specifically modern western ‘swords and sorcery, D&D, tolkien’. Their worlds are always defined by having answers to the big questions. ‘Are we alone in the universe?’ no, ‘What happens when we die?’ Souls survive. ‘How do I change things?’ Personal power.

This is fucking devastating. Holy fuck.

It’s funny how often you look through the cast list for indie progressives and it’s always about 90% cis, a bunch of NBs, 1-3 trans men, and then mayyyybe a trans woman if you’re lucky.

Among other things, if it turns out that non-material conditions are not simply dependent on material conditions, then Marxism (viz., dialectical materialism) is wrong!

"Leftists stop fighting tech and start fighting IP on tech so billionaires and large corps can no longer succeed with monopolizing tech in their hands."-challenge (you would think this challenge to be easy considering fighting IP to seize tech from billionaires once was considered leftist but nope…)

Communists and centrists being basically the same, example 1384028

WE WILL BURY THEM.

come to rust, it's ok if you feel dead inside because you can't find a way to express what's inside you, that's what PhantomData is for

you gotta stand by your words

So true. Software is one of the few areas where every dynamic supports LLM usage: - Fractal demand constraints - Very difficult to access - Relevant context is widely available in the training data (OSS) - Trivial to provide and receive text - Extremely easy to detect hallucinations at scale

Okay, so news cycle finally seems (relatively) slow, so I'm going to finally do some promotion for my book. I read many hundreds of books and articles in drafting Did The Science Wars Take Place? and a lot of delicious quotes or examples didn't make it in... www.amazon.com/Did-Science-...

I like to think I’m just gay sometimes. But every now and then I’m reminded of just how helplessly bisexual I am. I’m enjoying this quarter zip trend way too much 😭😭

We're coming for all of them this time.

All politicians are collaborators and appeasers. Some of them are just more entertaining about it

Compare and contrast ICE/CBP conduct in states with and without robust gun cultures.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!

It’s hard to overstate how vital our collaboration tooling is to Zed as a company. The reason we can ship? The reason we can maintain a high quality bar? The reason we’re relatively stable despite the massive amounts of changes? It’s all collab.
