Personal infoAbout:
I write code for a living and words for my sins. Among other things, I care about labour organizing, police abolition, antiracism and decolonization, accessibility, and public interest technology. When I’m not at work, I read, climb, and cycle through various other vaguely creative hobbies (art, textile crafts, music, games, etc). Voracious collector of memes and shitposts; occasional contributor to the same. Trans rights are human rights and abortion is health care.

 my very smart trans friend, paraphrased: if you are a cis woman and plausibly menopausal or premenopausal and thus potentially concerned about hot flashes, see if you can get a prescription for HRT just in case. estradiol is estradiol, and you never know who is going to be short on supply in the coming months/years. these sorts of informal networks to cover shortages are crucial. the more normalized and common it is, the harder it will be for a fascist gov’t to make it inaccessible for good. I ranted about my read-later app shutting down and modern life in general and it is not at all about the election or politics except that I wrote it to distract myself, in case you also wanted a brief distraction: https://phirephoenix.com/blog/2024-11-05/modernity @phire AMEN to all of this. Thanks for writing. (And for all the people who told me to “just host it yourself,” I will quote this passage: “One of the other options Omniverse suggests for moving off of its service is self-hosting, which is akin to telling me to go fuck myself. Self-hosting is great if your hobby is self-hosting things.”  @phire btw I do selfhost things because it's my hobby and I do think about a succession plan now and then, I just don't have any and probably never will, so my services are just for me and family, and they know how to access a local copy anytime (sigh, at least I hope they still do)

 @phire have not, will not. Disabling “AI” wherever it intrudes into my work and life. It’s bullshit. @phire well. I’m in! Also, my 17-year-older than me lead used AU too. I’m 75 and he’s 90 and you want more data? 🍸😿🍸🙀Gimme an effin break!🍸😹 BTW it’s not super great duh! But you had to know that right?🍸😹 Every single coder I've ever met just felt a great disturbance in the force, as if a terrible lie was told about AI yet again... |
