I feel like nobody is complaining about genAI replacing blogspam specifically, even though people will gladly go to bat for infographers, graphic designed and other "industrial" artists it goes to show you just how fucking worthless that ad-riddled SEO garbage was to begin with

Was walking down the street and saw someone with a shirt that said “eat organic” and I thought what about “breathe organic”. People pay extra to eat healthy food…filter their water…2 to 3 L per day. At the same time, they inhale 11,000 L per day of toxic gases and pathogens without hesitation.

A genius sits down.

getting back on the COVID measure train wasn't easy. you basically have to accept that Normal may not be coming back ever. ultimately I did it to be with someone I love

for most of my career, software developers lamented the fact that almost all code is complete and utter garbage then people invented a statistical model derived entirely from this ocean of awful, awful code and now we're using it to make everything

Jensen Huang spent his entire career fucking the computing world over. these new affairs are a drop in the ocean

Carneyvores are temporarily pro-anything under the pretext that the strongman banker will save us from US aggression. I wouldn't surprised if in a few years we hear "we can't afford not to deport temporary residents right now". of course whatever rightward drift we experience will be permanent

I really doubt the people who voted for and subsequently defended Carney are actually pro-AI, pro-fossil fuels, pro-militarization, pro-billionaires, anti-climate, and anti-labour. But that's the corner into which they've painted themselves and they own it. thewalrus.ca/ottawa-artif...

the leftists posts that I have the most trouble with are those idealistic ones that pertain to community and mutualism. I can't think of anywhere I've lived where people were interested in local community. the notion is like class consciousness at this point. it urgently needs rebuilding.

we're all looking at this wobbly jenga tower and wondering what the little nudge it that will bring it down a stroke? a car bomb? the price of gas? a CEO cheating on his wife? a nu metal revival? the world's ripe for another Franz Ferdinand, folks

if your society can have billions of dollars disappear when a guy has sex, you have built a stupid, goofy ass society

my favorite sort of socialism is whatever takes off. anything but this shit

bluesky should have a follow limit. how the fuck are you going to have more than a couple thousand followed accounts if it's not some guerilla way to get people to follow back

how the fuck am I becoming dyslexic at 34

as a long time free software nerd I cannot be thankful enough for this Jensen Huang era of humiliation

wish I could tie half the people in my industry in a chair, force their eyes open like in Clockwork Orange, and make them watch slides that say "AGI is not around the corner", "LLMs are also subject to Moore's law", "models cannot self-teach", etc etc

always felt like Stick RPG by XGenStudios was just a Newgrounds dating sim without the schlocky anatomically incorrect hentai

I went and watched the Elizabeth Holmes documentary and it was pretty good but the seats were really uncomfortable. I give it 8 out of 10 but it would be a 9/10 movie for sure if the seats were better

is it the same exploit where people can use it to make you say stupid things in order to win imaginary arguments

when you're so bad at your job you get north american voters to actually leave their homes

Talarico received more early votes than Paxton received in total That race was over before the polls opened yesterday

@pjplastino.bsky.social what's up man. how you doing

before you yell at Obama remember how he kinda lowered your private health care premiums for a little while

caught between being inspired by james talarico's message about building politics around love and me wanting to deport stephen miller immediately

I want to like this because it's brilliant but I'm terrified of what it will do to my feed

really happy as a Canadian now I get to worry about the Americans invading us a little less, for a couple years

as a rando reply buy I can always come back to my favorite brick wall

The nice thing about Bluesky is, you can post straight bangers for a couple weeks, then fall off for months, and when you're back to bangers again, your people are still here for you. 💞

half my bluesky feed is this now

every ten years or so a new tech market is invented out of thin air and about half a dozen "founders" win the lottery and become permanent fixtures in our culture the fact that they're pretty much always stupid and obnoxious should tell you everything you need to know about the investor class

I get that it's a joke but there are some lines that shouldn't be crossed

here's something scary: an entire generation imagined the existence of a game called Morrowind

"we can't afford X" is basically a dog whistle at this point. gutter politics. when, to a finance demon like Carney, can we afford NOT to do the most lucrative, destructive thing? never.

Mark Totten@marktottenpolitics.bsky.social · 2w ago

I believe it's useful to decode Carney's doublespeak into something more accurate by changing "we can't afford to meet climate emissions" To "I'm not competent enough to find a solution" His background is financing. Can't afford is a professional failure to do his job in his area of expertise.

just fucking take it on the chin dude

coders? you mean those 'hello, world' people? dont trust em
