Seems #Zoom would rather we ignored section 10 of its Terms of Service and just read the nice marketing words on its blog. https://blog.zoom.us/zooms-term-service-ai/ I'll still go by the ToS thanks https://the.webm.ink/not-using-zoom

whomst amongst us who is not Richard Stallman has the moments in our one wild and precious life to dedicate to self-hosting all the things in the world that an Open Source Guy has told us must be self-hosted

Attached: 1 image Made something a bit different today: a colour-blindness friendly visual hash. In reality it just visualises bytes, with 256 possible options for each cell, so any hashing function can be used with this (or none at all, just put in bytes). Putting a little process diary for this in the replies.

In the public sector we're often told to follow what the private sector do, that they are the model to follow. In reality, we do some things better in the public sector: accessibility, user research that is not led by profit, working in the open, avoiding deceptive patterns, going slow and not breaking things. The web itself came from the public sector, we can all learn from each other.

Whenever news breaks of bad decisions from a popular product, there's a flurry of recommendations of various alternatives, and in that mix there's always folks extolling the virtues of hosting your own. As a person who works on security for an open source project, my spicy take is this: unless you enjoy being your own sysadmin (some folks do!), any hosted solution from a vendor that is currently reputable and currently has acceptable terms is a better, safer option than self-hosting.

Attached: 1 image I am so fucking excited to bring #HotNerdSummer to Black Hat next week that I put together this super professional tour poster with all the ways you can experience the resilience revolution next week. This Barbie is gonna bring a relentless, pastel experience to #BHUSA and I hope you all join me for it. My talk is on Weds 11:20 - 12:00; follow me to the Q&A after so I can bequeath you a ticket for a *free* copy of my book I’ll sign at the Fastly booth 14:30 - 15:30. See you there ✨

It’s maddeningly US-centric with its passive aggression, toxic positivity, and work-worship agenda. It’s also hilariously mis-targeted for Europeans. Having worked with people from all over Europe, the work culture is the same. “My time is MY time”. Just last week I asked a junior colleague to do something (not knowing the time) at half 4 on Friday. Their reply was leaning back on their chair and poking their head around the desk divider and saying “have you seen the time? You can absolutely get to fuck with that”. Completely the correct response.

@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me also please don’t downplay your help, i really appreciated it 💛 and can’t believe you only have a week off left! 😱

I heard a confession from a friend the other day who's working on ML in health care who's leaving that field as soon as he can because as best as he and his team can measure, the most important thing ML analytics can bring to hospitals is the mathematical certainty they should have taken the money they spent on ML analytics and hired nurses instead.

Had a nice productive post-holiday morning getting Renovate set up the k8s.social to handle automated update PRs for me. 😃 Been putting it off for too long now. And with that, everything running in the cluster is now fully updated.! 🎉

I would have more patience for the argument that #OpenSource is dead were it not for the fact the people making the argument are benefiting from huge quantities of the stuff and would rather their customers didn't benefit the same #SoftwareFreedom

Attached: 1 image Apparently, the #DailyMail has just launched "Woke Watch", where red faced pillocks send in angry e-mails, complaining about transgender asylum seekers giving their house prices pronoun cancer, or something. Anyway, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should one e-mail wokewatch@dailymail.co.uk to #Troll, #Shitpost or just plain take the piss. No, that would be WRONG. Oh, for shame! #News #UK #Media

Can we all please agree to not put something called ‘Blog’ on a website if it doesn’t also have a RSS/Atom feed for it? If you’re going to make me have to remember to check your site for new articles, I’m not going to do that.

I co-wrote a cookbook for depressed people and other folks with zero spoons, only knives. It's not meant to be gourmet cooking so much as a survival guide for late stage capitalism. And you can get it for free! https://traumbooks.itch.io/the-sad-bastard-cookbook
