we’ve been trying to automate farming for as long as farming as existed.

That we have to do the “rescheduling meetings” dance because of this silliness twice a year is sad.

As a native Minnesotan I can’t express how much of a disappointment Target has become. Literally the queer company I grew up with.

and then lasting long night to replace the incomprehensible system with another incomprehensible system until you can retire

holy shit

You are posting to a public website. Your posts will be used to train models and other shit. If you don’t want that to happen - stop posting.

I get on a boat and bluesky switches CEOs. Is this individual going to ban people who hurt their feelings as well? Time will tell.

Hyperlinks is literally how the web works. Stopping them is a bit silly.

Illustration of a small fluffy black cat lying flat on a soft pink and purple ground under a purple sky. The cat has very large round eyes and a tiny white nose dot, looking calmly toward the viewer. Above the cat, the text reads: “It’s okay to step away and give yourself a little space to breathe.” 🐈‍⬛

This is part of the reason I left IT. Dealing with emotional executives at 2am in the morning who can't get in their email was too draining.

Proton Pass usability is severely hampered by not supporting subdomains. So instead of releasing a CLI - put your engineering efforts into improving usability.

I had a gig at a defense contractor that had offices in Orlando some years and it was the first time I ever spent anytime in Orlando outside of an amusement park.

Never again. Horrible city. Horrible airport.

Short ride today. No one tried to kill me today although I went through a red light right in front of a cop who just waved at me. So add one to good cop count.

Good cops: 3
Bad cops: 47,391
Naughty cops: 5

Oh!!!

Hi! Yes, I've read every single one of the cases in depth.

The media is heavily sensationalizing the facts. They run with the plaintiff's narrative, but there's a lot of missing context in the complaints, a lot of cherry picked quotes, and very few to no screenshots of the full dialogue.

Challenge for people who believe Claude *is* conscious and use it anyway: Explain how you’re not a slaver.

If I can’t unionize Claude then it’s not conscious, next question

If I prompt claude “what to do on a saturday night in des moines iowa?” it’s not going to return “why don’t you kill yourself - does your dad own a gun?” because that is not how LLMs work.

(although curious how bluesky’s asinine trust and safety system treats this message)

A small moment of gentleness in the middle of everything. 🐈‍⬛🤍 (please open the thread)

Thank you for the 27th reminder to file my taxes. I owe $19k so I’m going to wait until the last fucking minute to push the fucking send button

Thus far you’ve established zero credibility on the subject. And what’s with the word “assisted”?

Hiya! Anyone in the SF Bay Area/Remote need a cool programmer for your team? I've been messing with computers for over 30 years now, I can program anything with bits, and I've got a lot of experience with all sorts of different systems, environments, and languages.

Used to live in Bankers Hill also so don’t come here as often as we used too

Zuckerberg is 41. The guys who wrote ICQ are in their 50s. Tom Jennings - who wrote FideNet - is in his 70s. The architects of the modern internet - Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn (amongst others) - are in their 80s.

The moment I reach for my shoes ….

It’s telling that you’ve done exactly zero research into the situations of these kids you seem so interested in. And just want to blame the bot.

Kids don’t have default access to a doctor or therapist. And in many cases those that they are “close” to are the ones causing them harm.
