Good Evening, "iTunes for Windows" was a 24 year study dedicated to developing the worst program ever made. We are now complete with our study. Thank you for your time

If I use a link in your search bar, your system should be able to directly find what I’m looking for, especially if you export it. Looking at you @bsky.app 👀 Looking at you Tenor 👀 Looking at all of you 👀 👀 👀

Testing the BSKY API

This looks so interesting

I won’t abandon trans people. They could never make me hate you or forget you.

Anybody know if the Iowa Green Party is still active & legit? I’m ready to get serious.

DeepSeek R1 is pretty good so far. Definitely getting better results from it than the distilled LLama version. LLama was my primary for that price range, but R1 might easily complete w/ my Claude workflows at the expense of speed.

Wow DeepSeek took the world by storm when I wasn’t looking

OpenAI broke promise after promise. They should be held accountable.

I’m so burnt out on mint for oral health products 😩

I’m glad I was able to save our collections before the #TikTokBan - wish I could’ve finished my Python tool with enough time to share w/ others. But I was able to put my mask on (+ my partner 😮‍💨) and that helped us find closure.

WAKE UP BABE, THE FIRST NEW HUBBLE IMAGE OF 2025 DROPPED!!!

Naruto still has the best music out of any show I’ve watched in my life 🤩

I’m finally watching DBZ Kai with the Bruce Faulconer music I grew up with & the story flows so much better now 🥰

I believe in AI doing good things for our future, but these are the kind of things I don’t want to see from cutthroat capitalism

This channel has lowkey good local/self-hosted AI content www.youtube.com/@fahdmirza/v...

Congress fussed about the campaign to stop the #TikTok ban, citing their fears about CCP influence, but I know irl users who still don’t know the ban is real. It feels like the conspiracy that teachers are turning kids gay or trans. None of us can get through to your kids any more than you can.

AOC is my president

Had to unfollow Mark Cuban because he loves disinformation platforms

I was really excited to build on the AT Protocol before the team went radio silent on Jesse Singal’s harm to the trans community. I don’t see myself building here until marginalized groups feel safe. I can go back to tinkering with my Discord projects with my focus reclaimed I guess.

Taylor’s the strongest hustler I’ve seen in a long time. It take a lot of passion, stamina, and intelligence to be as multi-disciplined & skilled as him. I strongly admire his ability to network as well, he makes it look easy. You’re lucky to have Taylor Camro on your team, believe it!

I actually have no problem going back to discord & admitting to my friends that they were right about Bsky & they should believe those articles that recommend Mastodon over it. I have no problem admitting that I was wrong about the moderation tools here & there is no safety w/o admin protection.

The new Llama 3.3 is looking sweeeet. 405B has been growing on me lately, so this might end up my daily driver. #AI #LLM

I love that these AirPods can adjust my music volume & noise reduction to help with sudden conversations. My only issue so far is that I can’t sing or rap along with the music unless I turn it off.

I hope @mcuban.bsky.social realizes @nytimes.com actively enables Trumpism & stops shilling their content.

Just learned that Lowe’s rolled back their DEI policies. I’ll roll back my brand loyalty when I’m considering home improvement supplies since my policy was to reward their inclusive efforts.

Bluesky has an opportunity to reshape the data rights landscape. For example, I can see users having the ability to annotate licensing in our content. This would empower us with personal enforcement opportunities & may even open pathways to being compensated for our data.

There are a lot of bots on Bluesky and idk what they all want besides the usual money & attention. This platform can distinguish itself by embracing bot accounts and implementing a system that labels & regulates them. Self-labeled bots get more restrictions, but less systemic oppression.

I think Microsoft is going to change the whole name to Copilot soon 🙄 but seriously I hope they have a plan to reunify this product because it doesn’t really mean anything except #MSFT + {AI} now.

hard to exaggerate how nuts the engagement is on Bluesky compared to 𝕏. a vastly smaller user base (at least officially), but just look at these stats for one of the biggest newspapers on Earth. Musk has absolutely trashed the platform. folks, you are not locked in on 𝕏. not even a little.

I’ve been seeing this UX gap in the AI code agent ecosystem too. TBH I’ve been considering forking Cline to add a UI/UX building window. My issue is I have a lot of ideas though. Is this one worth pursuing?

Democrats missed a lot of opportunities in this election, but they absolutely should have co-opted #BackTheBlue in their marketing for Kamala Harris’s campaign. If you’re going to dog whistle at conservatives, at least play like you want to win.

Where are the startup incubators & angel investors?

I’m sinking half court shots when it comes to human behavior now. No look pull ups and they’re falling in like butter. I’m learning to trust myself more.

As a UX engineer, I decided to learn Figma so that I can reduce the time sink of my UI iteration design experiments (XP). Now that #AI enables me to code faster, I’m not sure if having a separate process for design will continue to help my productivity.

We live in amazing times.

I’m still holding my Starbucks boycott. I won’t pay for the CEO’s jet supercommute, pissing away my money and our environment. The least you can do is lower your prices if you have money to burn like that.

I see Kendrick dropped a new album. He’s overhyped at the moment, but I have no reason to doubt his abilities, so I’ll give him a fair listen.
