telling an LLM to “check your training for bias” is so fucking funny

It is only a matter of time before a pop star asks how many people in the audience shaved “just in case” and the entire audience ERUPTS screaming and I personally cannot wait to see that from a million angles

On today's stream, it's our two-year anniversary special! The whole gang, including contributors, will be live to discuss our accomplishments, failures, hopes, dreams, and fears. We'll also be making some big announcements about the near future. We go live at 4 PM ET www.twitch.tv/aftermathdot...

Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.

The New York Times opinion page isn't holding anything back now smh.

NYT writing about the new mayor this morning

Alan Dershowitz needs to pay up what he owes us

got a shoutout in the Mamdani acceptance speech #blessed

I would like to nominate myself for the role of Rat Czar @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social please take me into consideration. I have had 7 pet rats and want to make sure we can live in harmony.

socialist Paul Revere just rode by Nowadays on a very fast bike announcing that the times has called the NYC mayoral race for Mamdani

they're right and they should say it

Can’t stop laughing at this

So looks like I’m on the job hunt again😅 Right now, I’m looking for contract/pt work since I have another really huge “project” in the works right now🤭 If you know of any contract/pt roles in dev marketing, technical writing, or dev education, please send them my way! Please repost and boost!💜💜

honestly my most leftist gym bro take is that gyms are a public good and should be state owned and free, not private

Interested in speaking at a future Brooklyn Web Workers? We've set up a talk submission form! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

It’s not ever about the numbers—you can bring insane audience engagement, views, eyeballs to your verticals, shape the conversation in wonderful ways, win awards and on and on And they still will nuke your job and your entire desk in the name of capital consolidation and kissing the fucking ring

I am so looking forward to @eurosky.social and I wrote down why I care about this ecosystem, both as an artist and as a coder. Including shoutout to @flashes.blue and @seabass.bsky.social #WeCanJustDoThings

Under this thread you see that it’s not just the CEO of Vercel that supports genocide, it’s a culture thing that proliferates thru others in the company too. I really hope everyone who opposes this can get out of there. If you need help finding a different job, please reach out to me.

NYMag blew up its story about ICE's increased presence at 26 Federal Plaza, and pasted it on a wall a few blocks away on Broadway

TRUE TRANS TIMELINE

Vodka muscle milk

Red skittles are the default skittle

deal

fucked myself up with the hip adductor Jesus Christ my LEGS

listening two old white guys rant about socialism and it's fucking wild as hell to hear them dance around racism and privilege

nerding out for a moment, Jagex put it up to a vote whether or not to remove microtransaction loot boxes from the game and it just passed the needed threshold of 100k votes i've been playing this game for 20 years, and this is the single best choice they've ever made

even if people do maybe that’s a sign that we need to do better!! Get more food to people!! All of my tax dollars should go to this, not war machines

published a lil JavaScript package called is-mdm, inspired by @lgug2z.com's blog post that was at the top of lobste.rs yesterday and wrote a post about it: bnb.im/posts/is-mdm/

this Halloween seems to simultaneously have some of the highest effort costumes I’ve ever seen from people who normally don’t go hard AND complete lack of planning from the people that normally go insane for it I genuinely wonder what is happening

bluesky mentioned in academic paper about puppygirls

@skeetstats.xyz !optin

guys I’m gonna hold your hands when I say this: you have to clean off the lens of your smudged-ass phone camera. please as a society we do not need to have greasy lens flare in every pic shared on the internet. this is something we can fix

insane long shot but is anyone I know looking to hire entry level roles remote / in LA? someone I care about a lot is trying to get out of a bad situation + support her daughter but the only path she sees to get her own space + stability is the military and I would love to help her not choose that

I don't buy the AI narrative around prosperity for all. There is plenty of money to go around yet it tends to flow to the top. I can't imagine a world where those in control of AI, assuming it actually works, will resist charging an ever increasing subscription fee cementing the haves and have nots.

honestly impressive stance from the PSF, love to see it given how the CNCF handled the Air Force Guy I doubt the Linux Foundation would be able to take such a principled stance. Worth consideration 🫠

This is tonight! Get your tickets while they're still available

If anyone needs an ADA-seating ticket for the Zohran rally tonight, message me - I may have access to an extra.

it is really pretty that someone can be both filthy frank and joji

I maintain that Crazy in Love by Eden Project is one of the best songs to listen to while you’re Going Through It and can be really present with music

and Annabelle Adelaide (annabelleadelai.de) returns to the Brooklyn Web Workers stage as this month's musical guest!

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

According to legend, if you see a spider on Halloween, it's actually the spirit of a loved one watching over you. So I guess if you see a ghost on Halloween, it's actually a spider. Confusing but good information to have on hand.

gay spooky movie night is unparalleled
