  • RIP Thomas Kurtz

    Jump

  • RIP legend. O7

    May his prompt always read "READY" wherever his legacy may GOTO or RETSUB.

  • Another million users joined Bluesky today – could Bluesky spike spark end of X?

    Jump

  • Purchase by Musk sparked the end of X. Everyrhing else is just a signpost along the way.

  • History repeats

  • For my trip I'll take this fine list above, plus a copy of all of the legal ethically made pornography.

  • Wanna cuddle? [Sarah's Scribbles]

    Jump

  • "I like cuddles, but there's really no chance that I'll trip you during cuddles, so I don't want to do that right now."

  • My mistake

    Jump

  • Was the election not cooked though?

    Due to a new and novel conspiracy? Almost certainly not. The people who care don't need a new solution, their original solution still works fine.

    Cooked through gerry-mandering and voter disenfranchisement practices?

    Yes. Absolutely. Once again. As usual. Gerry meandering and voter disenfranchisement is well documented, and has been being done by powerful people against the rest of us, for a very long time.

  • How much is rent?

    Jump

  • Un-Fun fact, that's 32 more than the historic average for folks who have held that job.

    And I heard the average was affected a lot by an outlier.

  • Jawboning in Plain Sight: The Unconstitutional Censorship Tolerated by the DMCA

    Jump

  • DMCA is a shit law. No one worthwhile (artists or the public) benefits from it.

  • When you make a lot of money, the number you see in your account starts to become part of your identity because it differentiates you between you and the people you see every day.

    "Tres Comas is for winners." (A wonderful line delivery by the huge asshole venture fund bro in Silicon Valley, that illustrates your point)

  • Thank you for your service to the public.

  • Professional Technology Switch Question

    Jump

  • I've bluffed my way into technology changes every five or so years, across my career.

    It went, for me, like:

    Why do you want to do this, when you mostly have experience with that?

    "It looks interesting."

    Do you have experience with this?

    "No. But I know how to read the documentation, I pay attention and ask questions when my colleagues explain something, and I studied the basics of this, in college."

    It doesn't usually land me the job. But all I needed was an occasional "yes" here or there, to get started on something new, and expand my experience.

    Plus, even the "no" interviews have still been good for my professional network.

  • [ComicsWithAk] It's nice to be nice

    Jump

  • You mean the "Slow Children"? I'm glad someone is looking out for them.

  • No longer sad

    Jump

  • Is...uh... Is That a real sticker or pin I could purchase somewhere?

  • Glow Filament Quickshot

    Jump

  • Sweet.

  • The Great Acceleration

    Jump

  • You can have a website that scrapes all that noise everywhere else mushes it up into a flavorless paste

    Perfect summary. Someone send this to Zuckerberg to use in his next press release.

    Fuck everyone else that isn't me!

    Somehow as I read this sentence, stars and stripes and a bald eagle appeared behind it.

  • Have you tried not having a smashed hand?

    Jump

  • Wow. This really blew up.

    Just like that guy's hand!

  • Salesforce to hire more than 1,000 workers to boost AI product sales

    Jump

  • Lol. Good point.

  • Salesforce to hire more than 1,000 workers to boost AI product sales

    Jump

  • Dang. Not a scrap of awareness of the irony, in the article.

    I'll bet substantial amounts of money that the claim of "advanced reasoning abilities" will be ruled to be outright fraud, if it ever goes to court.

    It's the same claim made by traveling freak shows about horses that solve algebra problems, and the technology is essentially the same, under all the abstractions - learning models are great at repetition, and don't understand jack shit, today.

  • Salesforce to hire more than 1,000 workers to boost AI product sales

    Jump

  • "We're confident that the AI we sell can take care of everything...except anything we actually want to see get done correctly (such as selling it)."

  • I Will Always Be Angry About Software Engineering

    Jump

  • Cause I sometimes feel that all software except for some tiny suckless tools is cobbled-together and in a constant state of disrepair.

    Yep! It's a fascinating mix of bad timelines, bad tools, and most of us not yet having mastered even our tiny corner of the craft.

    But I've been assured that AI will solve all of that.
