What John Brown did was righteous and good, actually, and saying otherwise is lost cause revisionism When I was in school in Louisiana our history books literally said he was insane for freeing enslaved people. It's confederate slander.

Erik Loomis@erikloomis.bsky.social

And we can certainly condemn his violence. But let’s step back and remember just how horrible slavery was. On December 20, 1858, Brown, who had briefly returned to Kansas, led a party into Missouri to free slaves.

There are just as many conservatives and reactionaries in the bay area as anywhere else, they just channel their energy into "left" orgs because that's their only option

it’s actually crazy that DSA has embraced YIMBY candidates in NYC, LA, and DC …but @dsasf.org is somehow still scaremongering about YIMBYs and refusing to support car free streets because it could somehow theoretically benefit a real estate developer somewhere

Everyone in creative work for hire knows most of the job is clients asking you for something bad and stupid and you figuring out how to make something completely different while convincing them it's what they asked for. The AI era means everyone gets to see what clients actually want

Turns out the friction of having to learn photoshop was a crucial firewall protecting society from the terrible taste of small business owners

Had to Dremel/chisel off two nuts and then reinstall the old busted one. Extremely fun Saturday activity, but at least I don't have to go rent a van for work this week

kinda weird to be in a former church and hear people give talks about how they want to replace all human interaction with machines

as someone who is very pro-copyright this is definitely what should happen. not just the outputs, but the models. if an LLM is "safe" enough to be released publicly it should be open weight. sell the frontier to the biz & enterprise cyber security market.

shitty camera score, got two of these at the thrift store for a few bucks. very easy to modify these with pinholes or bulb/multi-exposure... #photography #analog #35mm #shittycamera

it's not a real "pano" there's just a dumb switch to mask a 35mm frame to 1:2.5 so obviously you can just replace the mask with any filter or gel you want i've also seen people jam peephole lenses in these to make the world's worst fisheye 28mm lens is about 225 micron equivalent pinhole

i still get a lot of people who are completely bewildered by the automated call screening, so i'm sure reactions to this will be very normal

You’ll need a Pixel 11 phone and a Google AI subscription, with the experimental feature emulating agentic technologies.
