Just got an AMAZING junk message. They're using "nucleus" which is like weebly for churches. He's not paying his bills

Agree pretty hard with this. There should be a self-maintained appliance for this that is open-source.

right wing media is in hysterics (DOXXING!) over the NYC DOF releasing the names of people who own property. The problem is this data - via ACRIS & the DOF tax bill website - has been public for decades. All they did was provide it in bulk in excel. Take a deep breath, @nypost.com

Speaking as someone who works in the medical IT field, and as a patient who has to deal with them - I must say, the worst possible application of AI here is in insurance company phone trees. It's already stressful enough to call your ins co, do we really need to deal w/chat bots when getting care?

WILL AI KILL US ALL, MAKE US SUBLIMELY HAPPY, OR ADD 2% TO GLOBAL GDP?! STAY TUNED TO NEXT WEEK'S EPISODE TO FIND OUT!

So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for: - Who takes over; - Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation; - How to defend US bases in the region; - Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and - How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.

One of these days I need to figure out how to do something good with the giant NYC property database I built. I have multiple dwelling registrations, property taxes, mortgages, violations, and tax abatements going back decades.

Ah yes, that old enemy of humanity - geometric growth

Am I a weirdo for not giving a shit about my phone? I never logged into it, I export my contacts, factory reset, and then re-import my contacts regularly. I don't back anything up to the cloud and actually could care less about the content on it. I've installed all of FOUR apps, no google play...

linux is always an option, folks. Ubuntu is quite stable and easy to use these days

The reason this isn't going away is because the US is home to far more survivors of childhood sexual trauma than anyone wants to admit or who have been steeping in silence, shame, anger and quiet isolation. They identify with those victims in ways they sometimes barely realize and they are PISSED.

I downloaded NYC vehicular collision data from 7/1/2012 to 7/22/2025 (N= ~ 2.2m) from here data.cityofnewyork.us/.../h9gi-nx9... Only about 3.5% MAX accidents that resulted in an injury or death to a pedestrian involved a bicycle or e-bike. 97% plus of accidents involve a vehicle OTHER than a bike.

If I ever saw software that I worked on used in this way, not sure I would know how to feel honestly.

It’s fine, he’s just got all your personal data. 💊💉

Wow: after 15 years, YouTube has taken down the original 'Rick Roll' video due to a "licensing issue," likely due to the acquisition of Astley's record lable. The metadata remains, but if you click through it goes to 'video not found': www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4...

@dethveggie.bsky.social are you going to def con this year? I'll wear my l0pht grille-a-thon 94 tshirt if you do :)

really proud of this one. hope it gets accepted!

I no longer use the NYC bike lanes. When Bloomberg designed them there were no amazon electric vehicles, citibikes, or uber eats. It's safer for everyone if I ride in the lanes with cars

nothing says "i love living in upper manhattan" like accidentally leaving footprints in human remains that were left on the sidewalk. <sigh>
