How the fuck do you apply terms of service to a service that allows people on other servers to read the data without agreeing to the ToS
I am once again encouraging people to reject the idea that terms of service should have any legal significance whatsoever
As they say, time flies when you’re having fun. I can proudly say that I’ve had a lot of fun since I published my career pivot to community-building blog post in July 2021. 📸 From Berli…

Are you a woman? Do you feel that you’re missing out on men explaining things to you in a way that is simultaneously patronising AND incorrect? Yes, you are? Wonderful! Then simply post about #infosec, #hardware, or #programming and you’ll find what you’re missing in your life, you silly little female. ❤️❤️❤️
"AI Engineer", uh huh, let's be honest, it's more like "AI Whisperer” — you've absolutely no guarantees that the thing is gonna do what you actually want it to. #ai

📢 Looking forward to starting a new role with dxw next week working alongside GDS focusing on design and accessibility. Saying goodbye to ten years working in WordPress and PHP
The one evening I have the energy to do programming stuff outside of work, is OBVIOUSLY the same evening that GitHub decides to throw a huge wobbly. On the bright side, my blog is now deployed from GitHub Actions rather than manually synced to AWS S3, so maybe I'll be more motivated to write again!
@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me I want to create a page similar to yours! Also in the past I shared your salary page with other people - thank you for doing that!

Attached: 1 image I'm sorry everyone but we need to take back whatever we all said about Apple not doing machine learning right. iOS 17's Photos app can now identify *and* explain laundry symbols in pictures and this is amazing. No more need for apps that do this; just swipe up on a photo.

Seth Michael Larson pointed out that the Python gzip module can be used as a CLI tool like this:

Dear new developer, I was out for a run the other day. People walk dogs along my running route and I had noticed a few days before a bag of dog poop. I had run on by, assuming someone was planning …
