Two things are true: 1. Claims about AI capabilities are overblown 2. AI has completely revolutionized software development, and will do the same to many other fields I'm a software developer by trade. I'm going to attempt to explain what this revolution feels like "from the inside".
THIS was the image they went with for touch workflows!?? HAHAHA

In a world of terrible AI takes, I like this proposal. The biggest problem is still bad actors, boosters that vibe their way through it and claim that they've made miracles with no way to understand (or wilfully misrepresenting) if that's true, but I would enjoy more signals from honest actors too.

Great article by Oana Olteanu “Against Usefulness” that centers @folkcomputer.bsky.social while describing “the stage before useful, who works on it, and who pays for it, so that the next generation of useful companies has something to stand on”

Political meat-proxy astroturfing needs to be legislatively nuked out of existence if we want to have any semblance of a democracy. The use of this tech should be an immediate career ending scandal.
Canada's National Observer@nationalobserver.com · 2mo agoThe way the app works is this: -Supporters sign up and download the app -Soon, they begin receiving notifications, known in the app as "Digital Fighters Tasks" -The app auto-generates text for the supporter to post, and offers a reward in exchange for copying it on to social media
This sucks super hard, but I’m sort of enjoying the through-line of the Canadian government telling Meta they must pay when other people link to news via their website and them pulling an uno reverse and making YOU pay THEM for the ability to link to things instead.

Wanting more Wikidata-backed projects in the world, I was somehow able to nerd-snipe my partner Liza into making one! She was able to turn her weird esoteric knowledge of this mid 90s philosopher collective into a well sourced computable relationship graph. Go check it out, it's cool, I promise!

New Apple Maps Gaussian splat(?) trees look pretty incredible. Real cool mix of techniques, excited to see it rolled out more broadly.
for two months, I've been flying drones over Flock cameras to situation them in space and geography; I even got my commercial drone license in order to do it. I'd like to share this project with you all: it's called Records Of Enemy Surveillance: recordsofenemysurveillance.com
As somebody who's been on their forum from the beginning, everything Austin says in this thread rings true and seems pretty tough to deal with.
