What Else Musk is doing by stepping away as CEO and employing a women is likely a sign that Twitter is in real trouble and he needs, well, a fall...girl. This has been seen before and is termed the …

UK / London #IndieWeb folks, and others interested in having their own personal website, who'd be interested in reviving an in-person 2hr meetup this summer? [ ] Weekday [ ] Weekend [ ] No, uncomfortable with in-person meetings [ ] No, other reasons...

What if the very large language models were the friends we made along the way?

IMHO, an underappreciated aspect of 'filing bug reports is (hard) work for people' is that it's hard work that often has no particularly immediate payoff. Filing a bug report will mostly not get the problem fixed immediately the way you want; at best it may get you a fix in the next release, which will arrive who knows when.

ngl super embarrassing how often i’d look at something and go “wow this seems like a completely pointless overcomplicated mess” and then later run head-first into the exact same problem the seemingly overcomplicated mess solves, without ever realising my mistake

happens all the time in big corporates, but there's a balance here? have the foolishness to think you can rewrite the world, but the respect that things are like this for a reason the value comes in questioning those reasons to determine if they (still) apply to your needs

The question isn't determining whether Bluesky, Mastodon, Twitter, etc is the better platform. The question is why are we obsessed with emulating centralized corporate experiences that do not care about us or our communities? It's a lack of imagination leading that convo, not innovation.

I applied for a job by uploading my resume — and then correcting the job site's confused reading of my resume. BUT I did not have to add a cover letter. way Way ahead of the pack for application process

remembered an important fact about myself just now deep down, at heart…I’m a normie (and I’m ok with that)

To keep the modern technological world of open source software safe, it is critical to efficiently and accurately communicate information about open source vulnerabilities. The OSV Schema, created through the collaboration between OpenSSF members and housed within the Vulnerability Disclosures Working Group, provides a minimal, easy-to-use first class JSON format for describing vulnerabilities in open source software.

I want open source maintainer to be a profession. A thing you start by joining something bigger than just yourself, and then you grow in it. And eventually spawn off your own thing, hopefully. 🗣️ @filippo@abyssdomain.expert https://youtu.be/OBWCM2G6_-I

Releasing a product or feature without proper material that explains why anyone should care will likely lead to poor results. Try writing your “why” docs first. Before you write that first line of code. Not how it will work. WHY they should care.

Attached: 1 image Today I am disappointed and disgusted to say that #WesternDigital have sent me an email that has very important content in it, but it's inaccessible. They've suffered a data breach, but the information about said breach has been put into the email as an image. A #ScreenReader user without some level of tech knowledge would be unable to read that, and may actually think it's spam. To us, it goes straight to the line that says 'Copyright 2023 Western Digital' and skips all the salient points. Utterly disgusting behaviour from such a large company about such an important topic. If you're of a mind to do so, please boost to raise awareness. This email is seemingly *not* a drill.

If you’ve ever seen Quantum of Solace, you’ll see an example of what happens when you continue with a production during a writers’ strike. Awful movie, and it was in between Casino Royale and Skyfall which were great. I’ll be so upset if Disney ruin season 2 of Andor, given that will be the end of the whole thing. There won’t be a season 3, season 2 goes right up to the Rogue One movie https://gizmodo.com/andor-season-2-production-writers-strike-1850411776

I think I figured out an aesthetic reason why AI-in-everything has been annoying the hell out of me. They're all using the same API from the same source — okay maybe two or three sources but mostly not — converging all their interesting and distinct services into one indistinguishable oatmeal mashup. Oh you can help me write emails? How is that different from the ten other apps that hook up to ChatGPT to help me write emails?

my dad has been speaking to a royalist in his street and when my dad said we should get rid of the monarchy this bloke said "who would you have in charge instead... a load of transgenders?" and im obsessed with the idea that you can either have a king or a council of trans people

I’m now out of the police station. Still waiting for my colleagues. Make no mistake. There is no longer a right to peaceful protest in the UK. I have been told many times the monarch is there to defend our freedoms. Now our freedoms are under attack in his name.
