Sometimes In the darkest night The sky is lit by such beautiful colours To show us that there is still brightness somewhere - This Feral Friday's past art is a favourite - heck, I'm wearing it on a shirt! It came from a place of passion and yearning inside, and I'm so glad I could make it real <3

A good friend of mine was just fired because they kept their integrity and refused to use AI. How many more good workers will be cast aside in the coming months and years because of managers' AI psychosis?

Senior engineers have been very critical of junior engineers' AI slop code reviews, and now management is saying that the senior engineers need to stop being so negative, and not that the junior engineers need to stop putting out such slop.

There is a special circle of hell for detransitioners who attempt to use their extremely anecdotal experience to legislate away every other trans person.

OMG! I just found out about the Mouse Without Borders app, and it is straight up magic! Now I can just use my desktop mouse/keyboard to also control my laptop as if it were just another monitor on my desktop, rather than leaning over awkwardly to use my laptop's own mouse/keyboard.

Secrets of the Silent Witch Vol 8 ends on such a huge cliffhanger! I was waiting 9 months for this release, and now I'll probably need to wait about as long again for the next volume.

Blizzard is not creating WoW: Forever to throw a bone to Classic players. They were frustrated that Classic players spent so little, and WoW: Forever is simply a pretense to shove more immersion-breaking bullshit onto the in-game store.

I love doing genealogy research! You never really know what you're going to find. I found out that my 6x-great-grandmother was named Elisabeth Wolf, and that is just so cool! Wolves are a part of my lineage.

Debugging code is a puzzle. Using AI is a shortcut. If you had someone over your shoulder solving every stage of a puzzle for you, it may get done faster. But would you still feel the same satisfaction afterwards? I enjoy puzzles for the process, not just for the completion.

Today a jr engineer used AI to update an old, complex section of code. He couldn't even explain his solution. He said it was "not worth his time" to understand the code. I was so incensed. It's not worth your time to learn and become a better engineer?? What are we even doing here...

Here is Tom Steyer personally supporting high school trans athlete AB Hernandez. I don't think I've ever seen a candidate as brave as Tom Steyer in his explicit support for trans folks. It says a lot that it took a self funded billionaire not dependent on donors to do it.
