lost another one, boys

nostalgia is remembering when you didn’t have to pay bills and attributing that feeling to mario

i also remember when a google exec told the stadia team that they were happy to invest in stadia for the next 10 years lmao

Apparently I don't hate #AI enough to be on the list 😢

GenAI is plunder, pass it on (a comic)

Went to see Project Hail Mary yesterday, and I haven't been so disappointed since One Battle After Another. PHM feels like you are being sold a scammy product, music is constantly trying to force feels onto you because the movie cannot do its job.

when i speak of "good-faith adversarial collaboration" i speak of this

Unless AI is controlling Meta's staffing, then it's not responsible for job losses. Even if it were, I'd argue it's the responsibility of people who put it in such a position.

How I wish this was true, especially the "user friendly" part.

Can't wait for the news section of @wtyppod.bsky.social recorded yesterday.

"ty to chyba lubisz"

I need a #Onion headline like: Depressed artist admits that their most beloved hit song is "the shittiest crap ever made".

"gotcha"ing an autistic person into eating something with an ingredient they don't like to prove they can't tell is like me spitting in your drink to prove you can't tell that you've just drank my spit

Plot idea: A competition titled "Oppression Olympics" ,where you win if you are most (stereotypically) oppressed. All is predictable until the finale, where disabled, neurodivergent, marginalized, displaced black trans woman faces a surprise challenger: a middle-class WASP boy.

I feel like I'm going insane aftermath.site/one-piece-zoro...

Played through #Dispatch last two evenings, and it's a great piece of art, but a bit disappointing game. The realisation that in the end most of the choices don't matter was a big let down 😞.

Grunt work is work independently of your skills, it's a way of staying grounded. Delegating it to slopmachine is a dangerous game that I do not want to participate in.

Since there's no day for "unspecified developmental disorders", I'll use today as the day: hello folks, my name is Krzysztof and I'm bonkers.

I keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines. Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."

Fscking finally there's the final episode of #wintermute

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.

Happy International Transgender Day of Visibility! We're everywhere and we're cool. Here's the trans pride flag 🏳️‍⚧️ on a mid-90s Pentium running DOS.

Maybe I wouldn't be such a smarmy condescending asshole if people didn't dismiss my brilliant arguments out of hand!!!

I'm wondering if #code written right after TZ change is of worse quality than normally. 💤

see you there

Any #Linux aficionado wants to help a total n00b set up #openldap on #Debian?

🇪🇺They’ve forced a re-vote: tomorrow at 11:00 the European Parliament votes again on #chatcontrol mass scanning. Socialists and Liberals are divided, ECR now with EPP — and a quick phone call can still change minds! Last chance to call and ask: 👉 https://fightchatcontrol.eu

Imagine how safe it would be if cyclists weren't jerks ;)

I have a joke about the Fates. Everybody gets it eventually.

Pardon me while I get into something on my mind for forty years. When I started in IT in 1986, it was still an environment where people could work their way up from tape jockey to systems programming, so discrimination at the university level was less of a barrier. I worked my way up.

stand up to them and they'll say you are deviant homosexual marxists trying to poison society. comply in advance & throw yourself at their feet, and they'll still say you are deviant homosexual marxists trying to poison society, because they need you to be that

By 47 she'll drop the "benevolent" part

Natasha Weaving, 37, made the chilling discovery on Monday when she noticed colleague Eddie Albington, 38, using his laptop in meetings before fully saying the stupidest shit she had ever heard in her life.

Honestly: does the appeal of One Battle After Another come from its political commentary? Or is the story of a stoner dad that does nothing useful but somehow earns absolution, something important in USian culture? #oscars

Young Sherlock is neat, though sometimes a bit unimaginative. Check it out

This is a terrible read. I'm really in awe of somebody being so astonished by the lack of class solidarity within the software workforce, and at the same time advocating for obedience in advance. Also “And in coding, LLMs take away the drudgery and leave the human, soulful parts to you.” can be 1/

But it doesn't. This is the perspective of a person who doesn't like programming, but just like the results of programming.

"This probably sounds like nightmare fuel to many, but to wealthy VCs and AI and crypto entrepreneurs it’s the next gold rush." is the quote of our time

In other news, people who know that a cheap supplier sells them stolen goods find him less ethical.

When will gen alpha be production ready?

To add something more to the rubbish pile: It's like doing a survey on physical activity and determining that Zs are way more athletic than Boomers. Without knowing what the latter were like when they were the age of today's young generation, we're comparing apples and apple trees.

One thing I despise in technical interviews is people requiring precise answers about vague concepts. Let's say it's called "Gumblax" - "Can you tell me what Gumblax is?" goes the question. Now guess: do they want to hear as it's written in the Gumblax author's book from 1989? 1/3

No, it's not "circulating" in all the listed countries. See polioeradication.org/circulating-... for a more reliable information on Polio.

the US & israel kicked this off unprovoked by attacking a school full of kids, i'm not sure why the fuck i'm supposed to see a headline about their murder infrastructure being destroyed and think "oh no, what a bad development"

#Developers who do runtime type checks are definitely going to respect `@visibleForTesting`. Totally, yeah.

New from 404 Media: Proton Mail, the privacy-focused email service, gave authorities data that let the FBI unmask an anonymous 'Stop Cop City' protester. It was payment data linked to the anonymous email account. From that, FBI ID'd them, then tracked their movements www.404media.co/proton-mail-...
