buying streetwear and it turns out to just be a gilden shirt in expensive packaging

holy hell just re-discovered JavE. this was installed on my elementary school’s eMacs for the stem classes, I used to goof around in here as a bootleg kid pix.

idk who we were fooling about the flag clip art. that’s a lot of things but that ain’t the saudi flag, honey.

@mwichary (I’ll also need a full length session on how these graphics/interactive sections were done)

you have another 11 hours to be gay before it is banned until next year. best get moving.

flip cameras were a huge thing for roughly two years and then we all purged our collective memory of them right after. crazy

Григорий Клюшников

I had to google what these were. We never had anything like them but, between analog tech and acceptable phone cameras, seemingly everyone had one of those point and shoot digital cameras that could also record rather crappy videos.

ever see food marketing photos that look awful? if the staged pics are that bad, imagine how terrible the real thing must be. blimpie.com/menu/limitedtimeof

STOMACH SLEEPING IS BAD FOR YOUR BACK. SIDE SLEEPING IS BAD FOR YOUR FACE. YOU MUST SLEEP FACING STRAIGHT UP. DO NOT MOVE AT ALL.

i am intimidated by third grade me. he made fake operating systems in Keynote using single-cell tables with formulas for dynamic values and inter-slide hyperlinks. his power knows no bounds.

Bruno Philipe

@samhenrigold oh my god, I made the exact same things. I was fascinated with ATM interfaces and built several of them in Powerpoint

starting mac os x, don’t hit me up

so glad i’m back in NYC and seeing billboards for cable providers and injury attorneys. seeing git commands on a billboard felt against the natural order of things.

Arthur Rosa :happymac:

@samhenrigold yeah our enterprise AI and gitops billboards go against god

Григорий Клюшников

It's all fine, we have billboards for the war. Those really rub me the wrong way

before #Config2024  ends I wanna get hit by a waymo for insurance money.

There is always API 0: acting like a human/browser/user.

The first API is "fuck you I'm doing it anyway". Any additional API the program provides is merely a helpful shortcut

Foone🏳️‍⚧️

You see the point of this a lot in API design, where a company is like "okay we made an API but we limited it a bunch because we are scared about cheaters/bots/scrapers/whatever", while the things they limit are things a user clicking links can do in 2 seconds.

fauna

@foone there is, of course, issues with the fact that a lot of people on the other side of the equation know about API 0. I remember when twitter started making The Changes, they also got REALLY strict with automation detection to the point where it was dinging the average user because it seemed like they MIGHT be trying to bypass the lack of an API

if I had a lot more time I think I might write a book on my ideas about "adversarial automation".

The idea that the point of computers is to help the humans do their job faster and easier, and sometimes the computer or the software on it is the enemy in that battle.

Foone🏳️‍⚧️

because I see a lot of people approaching automation from this attitude of "software/sites should have APIs so that users can write software to automate it!"
and while that's not wrong, exactly, it's also not the attitude I think makes the most sense, you know?

We do not ask for access. We don't need to get permission to be able to automate our tasks.

best seats in the house! i think. idk i can’t really tell #config24

sam henri gold

I’m at #Config2024 all week! Come say hi — I have a giant, goofy box of stickers & pins with a sneak peek of the all-new @lickability branding 🤫

sam henri gold
