For everyone who was like “Google search is getting worse,” we were absolutely right.

An opposition party that struggles to defeat this man and his party in elections should dismantle and remake itself.

The @blacksky.app feeds and moderation service are now powered by our own atproto relay wss://atproto.africa 🌍 One of (if not Thee 1st) from-scratch, full-network relays 🏆 Sync v1.1 compliant ✅ Backfill window + plc cache 🧳 Built in #rustlang 🦀 in 3 weeks by @utkarshgupta137.bsky.social 🏎️ #ATDev

Damn, this is the clearest evidence yet of my “AI powered Dunning-Kruger” hypothesis: that AI proponents are only bullish about AI for work they don’t actually know or understand.

oh hey guess what it's an EU-jurisdiction atproto relay. hosted in france on an OVH eco KS-1 box: 4 cores/8 threads 32GB ram 480GB redundant SSD and 300mbit unmetered connection for three million dol-- i mean, sorry, it's $18.22 in USD/mo.

Yes. There are a lot of reasons to be upset about "AI", but the environmental impact of personal LLM use is not one of them. Getting the facts right matters.

A large protest has started to grow at the federal courthouse in Milwaukee Wisconsin in response to the arrest of a judge in chambers by regime forces.

ICE is officially now the Gestapo. Abolish it now.

too. many. ideas. too. many. priorities. too. little. brain. too. little. time.

these fuckers being able to destroy everything is not a foregone conclusion

Durham, my darlings, this message is for you!

Holy crap this works, consistently. Hilarious.

This makes no goddamn sense because nobody knows the best way to"use AI" yet. Whatever tools we have today are guaranteed to be obsolete in ~2 years. (Not even considering whether it's actually a good idea to start with, which it's not.)

I cannot bawl very heartily and work very recklessly at one and the same time.

Good job team America www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

That’s one hell of an exit line.

mr president, a second signal chat has hit the building

a beautiful woman like me should never have to lay eyes on "okta"

I mean if having principles is a trap then jump on in there.

There's no amount of angry/afraid/depressed you can be that's going to make the world decide to change any faster, so why not just push back when and how you can and otherwise enjoy what there is to enjoy?

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

And this is how you immediately seize the front-runner position in the next election. Much more of this PLEASE. And don’t just make it a photo op at the gate then go home. Get in. Make them stop you, physically. That is the story we need right now.

So easy getting a measles booster! Went in for my spring COVID booster & it was trivial asking for a Measles (MMR) jab too! Places like Walgreens & CVS keep it on hand, & the vaccine is cheaper to make than the test to see if you’re still resistant so Doc recommends just getting it, no down side!

he ain’t sick; but no, he isn’t well either

In a world in which terrifying news comes daily, this hits a new low. There isn't even a fig leaf of a faux concern for fairness... just pure, naked hate.

This is heading in the right direction for how to use LLMs when coding: github.com/koaning/smar... LLMs are conceptually more like a compiler, not a junior dev.

You can't deport a citizen. It's a contradiction in terms.

Hello Senator, who in theory represents me, a California resident. My 6.2k followers and I may be very interested to know why your answer to "What would I have done?" was "Vote to confirm the democracy-destroyer's nominees."
