The fact that we start to have the same conversations about crypto again makes my soul want to leave my body.
Yes. It's still all scams. A socially destructive set of technologies and attached belief systems.

So... I made a Lisp indentation script. In ed, of course. It manages exceptionally well for an ed script! I ran it on some code, and most of the problems are due to it either being unaware of special forms or restricted by regex replacement features ed provides. I'm surprised 😵    @thgie Got the same one and blocked it. I always suspect malware vectors but who knows. you know what, i don't even care how good AI is at coding. if the literal ghost of Donald fucking Knuth showed up at my desk and started typing my code for me, i'd tell him to fuck off back to his grave. It's *my* code and *I* want to do the coding. [update] i have been informed that Donald Knuth is, in fact, still alive

@mrsbeanbag You nearly ruined my day 😥 . I also had to check that Donald Knuth is still alive 😀 .  @mrsbeanbag oi he's not dead yet (or he is, but he's still typing in last volumes of The Art of Computer Programming, so he hasn't been declared dead). @mrsbeanbag

 And encourage everyone else who is on mastodon.social to find another instance! @nelsonakis @ayoub @Gargron I feel like far too many people, even users of years standing, don't understand what Mastodon even is. Yes, that is a shitty decision and mastodon social are past masters of those. I left that instance because I think their ways of behaving stink.But the point is mastodon social are only responsible for (and to) themselves. And every other instance is too. Don;t like them? Block them. But if you aren't even on the instance then why imagine yourself their police?  @nelsonakis If you check our explore page you will see that a lot of pro-Palestinian accounts appear there regularly. We may however moderate accounts that share misinformation or use antisemitic tropes such as Holocaust inversion. People keep forgetting the first rule of Mastodon/Fedi feature development: if a feature can be abused, don't develop the feature.  There is no technical solution to fascism. The solution is to dispossess, remove them from their jobs, and throw them out to freeze or heatstroke on the street. This is a shellacking by Justice and the Plaintiffs against Google. I honestly don't know how Chrome survives on its own without search attached—ironically, perhaps as a non-profit foundation? That'd be pretty funny. Ostensibly advertisers would still want preferential access to the dominant browser, in whatever shape it ends up, but then...wouldn't it baldly just be an ad viewing apparatus? This is an unbelievable opportunity for Mozilla, which I have every confidence they can fumble. But you know which editor won't delete 3 months of work?

that's on you) « People can read your writing "wherever they get their email". » – @anildash I'm trying to get used to the EURkey layout and I'm missing an EN DASH. https://eurkey.steffen.bruentjen.eu/ OK, I'm also missing subscript 2 so that I can write "CO₂ for the CO₂ god!!" 🩸 I guess it won't be long before I fire up VIA and add this stuff to the keyboard directly! The Chinese bulk carrier Yi Peng 3 has fully stopped in the Kattegat bay. Danish patrol ship HDMS Søløven is next to it. Danish boarding parties might be on the Chinese cargo ship, which is suspected to be responsible for cutting two undersea cable in the Baltic Sea. The skipper of the Chinese ship is a Russian national and the route leads from Ust-Luga (Russia) to Port Said (Egypt).

@jeridansky Hay una frase en español que dice: Del dicho al hecho hay mucho trecho. @jeridansky La reforma de la ley de extranjería, un "avance" que deja tareas pendientes sobre la regularización de migrantes @jeridansky Si en algo se caracteriza el Presidente Pedro Sánchez y su gobierno es que son muy mentirosos.

Bluesky's thing before Starter Packs was "Lists" which were almost solely used to put people on an insulting list discoverable through Clearsky as you blocked them. TIL that the purported skull of Mary Magdalene is enshrined in a gold reliquary in Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume, in France, and that reliquary is _the_ most Warhammer-40k-looking real thing I have ever seen in my life, bar none.

“Disney has reportedly pulled a Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur episode for telling a trans-inclusive story - The Verge” https://www.theverge.com/2024/11/15/24297438/moon-girl-and-devil-dinosaur-the-gatekeeper When I wrote about the counterculture switch the other day, this is exactly the sort of shit I expected. Mainstream media is going to be a very hostile environment for minorities and diverse stories Hast Du Interesse an der Naturdarstellung des 18. Jahrhunderts? |
