If you trade stocks and make your money purely on the labor of others you should just say hello, I'm a traitor. Leave the time out of it.

true crime brain has fucked people up so bad and they get really mad when you point that out. and also that the entire true crime industry is predatory and exploitative

We experimented with QUIC but it was too annoying to make Godot do it Ultimately went with the Rust bindings for ENet

This is interesting. In my blogposts analyzing ATproto I had compared the shared heap vs message passing from a CS perspective dustycloud.org/blog/how-dec... dustycloud.org/blog/re-re-b... @ianopolous.bsky.social did the actual math though, and shows the incentives

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

Palantir is a quasi-fundamentalist subversive right-wing movement with a stock symbol

Here at Angband, a company we named after the Hells of Iron where the literal devil lives in The Silmarillion, we would like you to stop being so hostile to our war-crime activities.

Yes, this is evil and generally illiterate. But they're also a tech company named after a communications device that becomes corrupted and only provides information from the perspective of someone called the "dark lord" and "the deceiver." So, yeah, this is about what I'd expect. (1/4)

Hegseth saying “The Pharisee Press” should be a fully mask off moment. He is saying “The Jewish Press”. But Christians of all political stripes are so devoted to using Pharisees as a rhetorical prop that liberal Christians regularly insist it’s totally fine, no matter how many Jews try to explain.

Amazing that in the national divorce the libs are getting the NFL, butter and cooking oil, being attracted to adult women, standup comedy, Bud Light, and now also Catholicism

I dont give a fuck if caitlyn jenner is the worst human being on the planet, she is the worst woman on the planet and deadnaming her is transphobic bullshit regardless of her actions. a trans person's gender is not a reward for good behavior that gets withdrawn when they suck

Whoever did this should be institutionalized.

This is structurally identical to a Da Share Z0ne post

when people joke about the site crashing because of ai or vibecoding or whatever, it's very funny that the smug tech-brains not only get very upset but also are like errrrrm excuse me it wasn't ai we're just bad at it

My favorite thing about Decentralized Applications is how vulnerable they are to DDoS's

Honestly "vibe-coded" is probably the most generous accusation leveled at the devs The alternative is that they were incompetent all on their own

Guys like scott alexander (and his mirror universe counterpart, yudkowsky) were only ever running an affinity fraud scam. They were writing to an audience of very stupid people who thought that cultural shibboleths of their computers-and-sci-fi bubble indicated intelligence.

I've said it before, but it's amazing that Stephen Miller is just a Nazi. There are types of ultra-right-wing Jew he could be, we have a whole tapestry of different types of late-century fascism he could have been produced by, but no. Not even a Neo-Nazi. He just says and thinks Nazi things.

I do think it's really funny how the word "stack" wormed its way from meaning "shitty pile of javascript" to meaning "shitty pile of drugs you use to write javascript marginally faster"

The SDL organization has an official position on LLMs and generative AI now: don't use it. github.com/libsdl-org/S...

The only valid form of "else if" is "else if", tbh Miss me with your elifs, your elsifs or, god help us all, in TCL your } else if {'s (Yes, that exact sequence of punctuation and spaces is a distinct token)

to summarize, this week jd vance laysplained st augustine of hippo to the augustinian pope, while the pope visited hippo

update: they've reproduced the results of the last study, again > AI assistance reduces persistence and impairs independent performance ai-project-website.github.io/AI-assistanc...

I've been very badly nerd sniped by Reliable UDP and wire formatting

Oh hell yeah, AI finally has its Long Blockchain Iced Tea moment

econ 101 guy: capitalism isn't perfect but it's the only system that ever worked! without incentive there's no innovation! capitalists: we're deliberately ending human civilization to protect the fossil fuel industry. we also hope to ban the research and development of competing energy technologies

As for AI-generated film, Werner Herzog is unimpressed. www.theverge.com/entertainmen...

what are they going to do, lock them in the auditorium? set up a perimeter to prevent anyone from leaving?

I feel like Diddy Kong under the effects of the disease

ICYMI: Forgejo is not built by cowards! forgejo.org/2026-03-mont...

It's worth noting here that these aren't bombings. This is demolition The IDF are able to freely walk around here and rig these obviously residential properties with demolition explosives, so it's not like there's any threat at all to them This is, VERY clearly, the war crime of wanton destruction

Conservative Protestant Work Ethic going strong as ever.

Happy 20th year of Neil banging out the tunes

i am not saying this out of a sense of malice or to give this poster a hard time. but i do think we should consider posting predictive market data about news events to be the same kind of tide-lowering slop as posting generative ai

It's funny that Trump called Iran tough negotiators because he said "Give up your only two points of leverage forever" and they said "no"

REMINDER: Saudi Arabia does not want the war in Iran to end before there is regime change. The Saudis are paying a top U.S. negotiator, Jared Kushner, tens of millions annually. The negotiations just ended without a deal, exactly what the Saudis wanted.

It's basically impossible to take a hard-line stance on AI in software and it really bums me out It's easy to not use it, but it's so hard to not use anything that uses it, it's really killing the vibe

I still don't know how people take "autodidact"-read-dumbass Yudkowsky seriously as a thinker, his writing is dogshit

wait, members of an insular apocalypse cult have turned to violence to satisfy their paranoid delusions? who could've seen this coming?

Re: Altman, Molotov cocktails, and violence: Here's Yudkowsky saying that more or less 8.2 billion people should be "allowed" to die so that his dumb "utopian" vision of digital space brains among the stars can be realized. (Minimum viable human population might be 150.)

Melania: I never cut child in half with sword. I never do this. The entire USA: what? Melania: not me.

I don't think it's a "problem" that there are fewer teen pregnancies. I think fewer teen pregnancies is a good thing, actually,

being negatively polarized into becoming a total human chauvinist by the combined effects of AI people and dog owners

My hatred is infinite. There is no such thing as too much punishment for him and his supporters.

For all my disdain for software engineering, it is still kind of engineering, which is not a science; it's engineering, which is closer to art than science

This is why there is no giving a single inch on “AI.” I do not give a fuck if “it actually is helpful for some things.”
