A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

David Byrne timidly exits a waterlogged suit and scuttles across the sizzling sand. Until he locates an improbably larger suit, he will be left vulnerable to seagulls and other hungry predators. At last, salvation: He finds an abandoned gray suit in a tide pool and crawls into his spacious new home.

i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript)

you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS

let it be known that i’m still an β€œAI” hater but this is really interesting. one of the first times that ive seen solid evidence that llms can be an improvement over our current tools (since β€œlines of code written” or β€œcode quality” are just horrible metrics)

Why do bash time travelers for not being there for Stephen Hawking but we never question if Stephen Hawking has bad vibes? Or if they're just unpleasant to be around?

these people have basically become addicted to gambling. think about it: they pour money into tokens, obsess about that leading to a good result, keep spending until and then well after that happens, never able to stop themselves from thinking about it. AI’s a slot machine.

β€œβ€¦ it took quite a bit longer to realize that just because you can, you might not want to.” really? you’re a fully grown man and you only realized that after blowing untold amounts of money on glorified autocomplete? and you admitted that on your own blog?

The same day DHS announced the surge would end in Minnesota, ICE activity increased in small towns.

i agree that you gotta share what kinda genres u like for good recs, but my personal favorite from last year was Racing Mount Pleasant’s self-titled. Very good, like, hardcore indie rock with a ton of brass and strings? similar to geese and bcnr

Ending this operation is not enough.

We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

like i had a job working on a matrix client for a few years a few years ago and i really thought the ecosystem would be better now but im trying it out again and i feel like literally nothing has changed since 2022

10.02.2026 21:42 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

is matrix just an impossible protocol? is libolm too bug-ridden and entrenched to make anything work? literally why is every matrix client still riddled with decryption errors and bugs everywhere, this far into the matrix’s lifespan

and the only desktop client i haven’t run into bugs w is fractal, but it feels behind the times on features (like it doesn’t even support slash commands)

lmao yeah i tried this today as well - i all but left the matrix ecosystem 2 years and thought the situation would be better by now but i feel like it literally hasn’t improved at all

Bilbo looking at his phone top

on bottom is ChatGPT

After all, why not? Why shouldn't I keep it?

You're absolutely right β€” you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.

Remember that literally every single one of the billionaire freaks behind generative AI has very publicly aligned themselves with trump and his policies

Their CEO's are in and out of the oval office for photo ops, they're donating mountains of money to him, they're literally getting military titles

A nearby man holding a skateboard admonished the group, saying that their quarry looked like he'd "had enough." However, when someone nearby shouted that the person they were assaulting was Ngo, the skateboard-carrying man changed his attitude, swearing and joining the group.

yeah. it makes me sad. i have a lot of thoughts but they’re not new or special or anything. best move is probably just to let people say what they want. they know what i think about it all.

with that said, i think i need to accept that some people just don’t see ai usage as all that bad. and that its fine to lose respect for said people if that’s my line in the sand. i just kinda thought that the rust community generally believed that we can build a better world through our choices.
