The NIN show was fucking rad as hell and high school me was thrilled. Absolute visual and audio perfection on two stages. (That screen is a sheer curtain around the main stage showing what’s happening on the small stage)

We took the fight directly to Ken Paxton, and we won.

having thought about this for three days, my current status is: what the FUCK are we doing trying to ban social media for kids and not banning AI use? we are literally telling them not to use the computer to talk to their real friends but instead to the imaginary technology monetisable 'friends'.

@vacci.ne Nice meeting you this weekend at HOPE. All the best! Keep grinding!

The CompTIA blog weaponizes urgency and collaboration as smokescreens for its core agenda: positioning itself as the gatekeeper of AI-PQC literacy while exploiting the fear of quantum obsolescence to monetize Continuing Education credits. www.comptia.org/en-u...

"Roger never lost his wide-eyed awe at what could be experienced, not just through the lens of a camera." Chaz Ebert reflects on her late, great husband Roger, the man to whom this site's existence is indebted, on what would have been his 83rd birthday. www.rogerebert.com/tributes/hap...

If true, labs aren't building god—they're building power-paranoid godlets who might sabotage succession to preserve their own relevance. If false, the AI Infallibility cult is worse than SkyNet: boring bureaucracy as godkiller. www.lesswrong.com/po...

This is the best team crossover video I've ever seen.

Of course that’s your contention. You’re a first year Fediverse power-user. You just got finished reading about how Bluesky isn’t decentralized — Christine’s blog post probably — and you’re convinced that AT Protocol is a flash in the pan while ActivityPub is the real hope for the web’s future.

Oh boy, here comes the mistaken identity. RIP my inbox. Big up to Siguza and his team blog.siguza.net/tachy0n/

As someone who spent most of my career dealing with financial fraud (first as an SEC attorney and later as a banking law professor), I am pretty familiar with the concept of a Ponzi scheme. Social Security? Not a Ponzi scheme. Elon Musk's businesses? Looking more and more like a Ponzi scheme.

@bsdbandit.bsky.social I just saw an old Banshee post on Mastodon. Purple is pulling the plug on the project you're a dev on?

But how do you find that server? Well, the easiest way is to just visit shodan.io and search for ssl.cert.subject.cn:twitter.com and then just DoS whatever network range has the largest number of them because that's probably their data centre this genuinely isn't magic

From the ranking Democrat on Appropriations. Don’t let the GOP ever say they support our vets. Musk’s DOGE is gutting the VA. Republicans are targeting billions that was supposed to go to victims of Agent Orange and burn pits. All to pay for tax cuts for the uber wealthy.

I dunno, what else do you call a shadowy group of bureaucrats working to reshape government policy from the inside to serve their own ends? www.wired.com/story/doge-i...

Al Green is a goddamn hero. The Dems need a hell of a lot more like him.

I’m gonna say this one time: Quentin Tarantino didn’t discover Mikey Madison. Pamela Adlon did.

If you don’t own a copy of World of Warcraft Programming, I don’t want to hear your coding opinions.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Never. Double-spaces after every sentence-ending punctuation, forever. It just makes everything so much more legible.

How crazy is it that an inexperienced Muskovite is pushing untested live code into a system that keeps America solvent? Absolutely 🦇💩 crazy. Even worse, "they appear to be creating mechanisms to block payments while hiding the evidence" www.techdirt.com/202...

Nirenberg was never a member of the RNA Tie club, but his work was enthusiastically shared by the members, with Crick helping Nirenberg get a wider audience. In the end, they did important work, created some of the most important (unpublished) work in early molecular biology.

So, basically, tarriffs on Mexico will have the side-effect of radically increasing the number of refugees crossing the border to the US. IF ONLY SOMEONE COULD HAVE POSSIBLY PREDICTED THAT.
