🚨BREAKING: We have moved for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction enjoining Trump from continuing to unconstitutionally impose themselves upon election administration procedures that the Constitution and federal law assign to the States.

ladies, is your programming - a field dominated by rich white men - driven by fashion trends - practiced as a demonstration of status - funded by vanity projects for failsons - filled with queers trying and failing to break even that's art, sorry

some of you have never fought for the user and it shows

70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

“why wouldn’t the internet archive be using the latest php” probably the same reason my sonos speakers are like a decade old, they get the job done and would expensive and laborious to update and i am not a billion dollar company

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

never been so happy in my life to see the .aspx extension on my bank's website lmao

Seems relevant to that flood of journalists who in the last few weeks announced publicly that it was okay to return to X, that the platform had gotten better, and the worst aspects of it had been minimized. This is what you have endorsed.

“The internet is a store but it used to be a library” hits me like a slug to the chest

If God didn’t want us to open 300 tabs, he wouldn’t have given us laptops with 16GB of RAM.

Trump started a trade war with our biggest ally and gave a handout to our biggest enemy.

The frequency of these is increasing, so do your civic duty today! Once your deliverability is affected by spam complaints, it's *really hard* to reverse, so the lazy sloperators will start to vanish for everyone

the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

NEW FROM PP The Trump admin keeps denying immigration agents are grabbing Americans, so we tracked it 500+ Americans detained 70+ kids, some cuffed or zip-tied 60+ held after filming 36+ held for day+ w/o access to lawyer ~12 deported (yes, deported) projects.propublica.org/american-cit....

Genuinely concerned about what's happening to the space-time continuum in this toilet.

You really can’t make this shit up.

Last Sunday #communityharvestleague took down apples from two apple trees: Honey crisp and Haralson apples. Unfortunately past their prime so they were headed to #littlebluestravelingzoo farm 😍 if you are interested in volunteering, sign up at CommunityHarvestLeague.org!

The saliva of Gila monsters has been momental in the development of GLP-1 weight loss drugs. Imagine how much more powerful T-Rex spit would be. Sharks, I’m asking for $10 billion to help buy an island off the coast of Costa Rica…

Pathetic…..

Official statement on today's DOJ press conference.

Don’t let the loudest assholes be the only ones who show up. Vote early, bring a friend, make a plan. Just fucking vote.

“Can I have more money?”

Tech companies suddenly decide they can, in fact, moderate content on their platforms after all

Official statement on today's SCOTUS ruling. With the election approaching, please check your registration at mnvotes.org and act quickly on any official notice about your voter status.

If executive branch creates a system so that people under government control can be located and then just stops listing some people in that system — despite their still being under government control — that should be a five-alarm fire for the other branches, the states, and the public.

ICE wants to deport Wilber Rafael Garces Perez, a DoorDash driver who they just shot in Austin yesterday. The federal government can't shoot someone and then try to make them disappear to escape scrutiny. Wilber Rafael Garces Perez needs a doctor right now, not a deportation.

Hey, friends—I'm excited to share my new project! I call it Tupo. It's a daily logic puzzle with roots in sudoku, where every cell has to have a unique color-number combo. Give it a shot if you like daily logic games, and let me know what you think! playtupo.com

Nice campaign by the Norwegian Consumer Council about the declining lifespan of products. Enjoy!

The more I hear about inverse proportion, the less I like it.

“These five paragraphs of Claude’s PR description could have been a sentence” is a the new “this meeting could have been an email”

If Pepsi started making their drink more like Coke, they wouldn't gain Coke drinkers; they'd lose Pepsi drinkers. Everyone who likes Pepsi would've lost every reason they ever had to buy it, and Coke drinkers would just keep on drinking Coke anyway. This is a post about Democrats moving right.

Cancelled my @1password.bsky.social account today, after many years as a happy customer. I was kinda hoping they'd recant on the whole YoU cAnT jUsT sAy RaCiStS aRe EvIL thing and stop showering a white supremacist with money, but since it seems like they won't, I'll take my business elsewhere.

Digital Ocean ended their $50/month sponsorship of GNOME and FlatHub and went radio silent on CSS-Tricks right around the time they found a spare three million dollars to burn on “sponsoring” a high-profile racist’s dotfiles repo. Impossible to see this as anything but a statement of their values.

but sure just keep posting about tech on there yeh?

Yuuuuup…

Dividing up AI users in 3 categories: Wizard: approaches AI academically & with appropriate guards & wards. Treats it like a tool. Warlock: Makes a pact for power with an alien entity without considering the costs. Is corrupted by the whispers. Cleric: worships their new machine god. Is insane.

Trump has spent more than a year dangling “dividends,” “rebates,” and $2,000 checks in front of Americans. The amount and timeline keeps changing. The number of checks that have actually reached the public? Zero. Credit: @groundwork.bsky.social

And majpr news outlets are already tiptoeing around calling this a bribe. That's literally what it is.

Perfectly states what I've been saying for some time, now.

If you can substitute "hungry ghost trapped in a jar" for "AI" in a sentence it's probably a valid use case for LLMs. Take "I have a bunch of hungry ghosts in jars, they mainly write SQL queries for me". Sure. Reasonable use case. "My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.
