(programming topics only) I can name some other SEO culprits: dev.to, algoacademy, geeks4geeks. centralised blog platforms attract slop, with low entry bar and all.
hacker news is pretty bad, lobste.rs pretty good (stricter bar on AI topics)
best is hunting down blogs from experienced ppl.
imo Medium as a platform should be avoided, almost zero value content, SEO optimized to clutter up search results.
related, Gemini has been pretty nice for locating technical keywords I previously didn't know (other LLMs don't seem to be as good when it comes to search)
I have not seen this anywhere online, and it took me a fair amount of asking around so here:

another day another algorithm thing being forced down my throat
I'm at the point where I realize avoiding takes a lot more energy than just facing work out front, so maybe to be a truly lazy person I have to... avoid avoidance? sounds weird but I really do feel like it's true
In fact, the first link that comes up is already pretty interesting.
Something I want to do more often is reading blogs from people. This site randomly chooses an article someone wrote in the last 7 days, and has a word search index too. I think it's a lot more interesting to see longer writing people put effort in instead of SMedia feeds.
Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions.
Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail.
Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos.
Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.

"They're trying to convince people they can't do the things they've been doing easily for years - to write emails, to write a presentation. Your daughter wants you to make up a bedtime story about puppies - to write that for you." We will get to the point, she says with a grim laugh, "that you will essentially become just a skin bag of organs and bones, nothing else. You won't know anything and you will be told repeatedly that you can't do it, which is the opposite of what life has to offer. Capitulating all kinds of decisions like where to go on vacation, what to wear today, who to date, what to eat. People are already doing this. You won't have to process grief, because you'll have uploaded photos and voice messages from your mother who just died, and then she can talk to you via AI video call every day. One of the ways it's going to destroy humans, long before there's a nuclear disaster, is going to be the emotional hollowing-out of people." - author and filmmaker Justine Bateman from a piece by Emine Saner for the Guardian

watching apple event today
so, they made a phone "slimmer" but has a huge camera bump
then they say once you get a phone case it would fit nicely
why bother making it a glass back phone then? and if a phone only looks ok to use with a case, does it even deserve to be called slim?

People who don't value 'the Arts' clearly have no idea what 'the Arts' actually consist of.

It's kind of painful to read articles that should have been the author's opinions on technical topics, but unfortunately very clear are LLM text, from the emojis and emdashes. Just filler designed to take up space on the search engine.
Anyone knows how to filter through LLM-gen articles in search?
got my (inactive) instagram account hacked and used for a paid bot follow. fortunately a friend saw the account posting random stuff and alerted me. no sign of weird location logins whatsoever, which is odd.
changed my password and set up 2fa, and had to manually unfollow 400+ accounts. tiring.

yandere-angela i think it's important to acknowledge that the reason why mastercard/visa has such a stranglehold on american society is because cash is not the main form of payment in the usa. the predominance of card has effectively privatized currency in japan, one of the reasons why dlsite and other similar websites are able to just remove visa as a payment option instead of changing any of their merchandise (aside from the fact that visa doesn't have a monopoly here) is because cash payments for online transactions remain an option. even if you don't have a jcb credit card or paypay or whatever, you can still pay for your online purchases using cash by taking your barcode to a convenience store, and you can do this for essentially every online vendor, meaning credit card companies can't just impose their moral judgments on your purchases with much repercussion butch-snorlax How does that barcode system work? I've never heard of something like that. yandere-angela 1. you add whatever porn games or movies or books you want to your cart and go to checkout 2. you select cash payment at conbini as your payment method 3. youre emailed a barcode that you take to the conbini 4. you show it to the cashier, they scan it, and you pay what you owe. note that the cashier does not see what youre buying and the transaction is complete
Japan is in no way perfect, it has many flaws, but this sort of thing is fucking phenomenal and I so desperately wish we had an approximate of it becuase fuck man it sucks that so much of our lives get dictated by corporate morality

Might just be me but I'm actually terrified of email. Like, I buy a thing and receive ads and spam endlessly. Often I just don't like opening the inbox because 99% chance is that I have received a couple dozen ads and I fear I might delete something by mistake. Terrible system.
