After almost 2 years at @Mastodon, it’s time to say my thank yous & goodbye ❤️

Since Jan 2023, we’ve nearly tripled our team, hiring 8 brilliant humans out of 1,510 applicants(!). I’m proud to leave this legacy behind.

From to , to donor comms, it’s been an honour building the backbone of this project!

Thank you, team, for this crazy ride — I’ll be cheering for you all from afar and have no doubt you'll accomplish everything you've set out to do! 🐘💫

With ❤️

the existence of one punch man suggests the existence of zero punch man

and then there's *minus* one punch man. wins after getting punched once.

also infinite punches man wins after punching forever, and if he and minus infinite punches man fought forever, that would give rise to not a number of punches man.

>Immer weniger Anwälte wollen Bürgergeld-Bezieher vertreten<

Schwächung demokratischer Verfahren

soziooekonomischer

Das stand noch nie für ein Gleichgewicht zwischen staatlicher Behörde und Buerger.
Der zunehmende Anwaltsschwund, der bereits in den Zehnerjahren begann, wird die rechtliche Asymmetrie weiter verschärfen.
Auch so rückt ein sozialer Kipppunkt näher

Immer weniger Anwälte wollen Bürgergeld-Bezieher vertreten

Das deutsche Sozialrecht ist das Fundament für existenzielle Leistungen wie Gesundheitsversorgung, Rente, Pflege- und Grundsicherung. Doch immer häufiger

Your "is an incredibly sophisticated form of pattern matching, so advanced that it can mimic the output of human reasoning for a narrow band of problems. But when tested in a controlled way, its fragility is exposed. It lacks the robust, generalizable, and symbolic logic that underpins true intelligence.

We’re seeing the limits of very expensive that breaks when it matters most."

This is a great summary by Rohit Kumar Thakur about the Apple paper “The Illusion of Thinking”

ninza7.medium.com/apple-just-p

The researchers asked LLM and LRM to solve well known problems like the Tower of Hanoi with a setup that the models very likely never encountered during their training (e.g. with 10 disks instead of 7) and, unsurprisingly, the models failed miserably.

I’ve said it before, but my biggest pet peeve and #1 way to make me dismiss your complaints is saying that we—open source software developers—don’t care. I’m not a billion dollar corporation. I’m not even a million dollar corporation. Most years I’m not even a $100k corporation. The *only* reason I do this at all is because I care.

When I was a kid, I used to ride water slides and then immediately run around to ride them again. I was obsessed.

Yesterday I went to the Subtropical Swimming Paradise at Center Parcs and did the same thing for two and a half hours and now my legs hurt from climbing the steps a few dozen times.

I already said it and I will say it again: If you stand with trans people or not, if you will support them without questions and without holding back or if you think of them as acceptable losses, might be the tipping point if we can preserve our democracy — or not.

Acceptance of trans people — or rather the lack of it — is the pond fascists dip their toes in to test the water if we are willing and open to being divided.

I had the BEST time today at . It was really inspiring and energizing to connect face-to-face with people championing the Fediverse and working tirelessly to create better online spaces - away from Big Tech’s closed silos.

It was also SUPER COOL to meet IRL people I had been corresponding with online. Thanks for coming up to say hi :)

35 years ago, EFF was founded to ensure tech empowers people—not the oppressors.
From defending encryption and privacy to fighting censorship and surveillance, we've been on the frontlines for your digital rights. eff.org/35

EFF's 35th Anniversary

Thirty-five years ago, a small group of people caught a glimpse of the possibilities of the coming digital future and decided that the world needed a kick-ass defender to ensure that technology could empower people, rather than oppress them. EFF was born, and we’ve been fighting for you ever since.We’ve won many of those fights for encryption, free speech, innovation, and privacy in too many battles to count. The rise of the internet meant that the dangers from corporate and state gatekeepers have grown as well: companies giddily lock down your software; online platforms throttle, censor, and wall off information; and state actors and advertisers scramble to capture your private thoughts and movements. Right now, it feels like the forces pushing for digital dystopia are surging.But there's a not-so-secret weapon that keeps EFF in the fight, even when the odds are against us: we never lose sight of our vision for a better future.The future we envision is possible. It’s a future where your device is truly yours. It’s a world where you can speak, move, and organize without the threat of pervasive surveillance. Your technology helps you connect with the people you care about, wherever they might be. With support from members around the world, EFF uses law, technology, and activism to create the conditions for human rights and civil liberties to flourish, and for repression to fail. After all, how can we achieve democracy and equity if you don’t first have privacy, security, and free expression?EFF uses law, technology, and activism to create the conditions for human rights and civil liberties to flourish, and for repression to fail.Throughout EFF’s year-long 35th Anniversary celebration, I’m joining our dedicated activists, investigators, technologists, and attorneys to use the lessons from EFF’s long and rich history to dynamically address and overcome the obstacles we face now. After all, EFF was founded at a time when governments were hostile and clueless about technology. Standing up to the powerful to defend the users is not a new posture, even as the context changes. Grounded in our principles and our vision of a better future, we will stand tall in the courts, before lawmakers, and in the streets. As we celebrate its 35th birthday, EFF is vibrant nestled within an even bigger community where we protect each other, including the most vulnerable and marginalized among us. There are more ways than ever that you can pitch in. You can join EFF, take part in activism, contribute code to our tech projects, learn about digital security, connect with local internet freedom supporters, or simply share the issues you care about with friends and loved ones, just to name a few.Believe me when I say that contributing some good to the world can take the edge off even the darkest of days, and that the digital rights community is stronger and more diverse than ever before. I hope you’ll stand with us and remember that EFF is—and always has been—here for you, too.For your rights online,Cindy CohnEFF Executive Director CELEBRATE EFF'S 35TH ANNIVERSARY AND HELP PROTECT FREEDOM ONLINEDonate to EFF

"Wir kritisieren in aller Deutlichkeit die offen ausgestellte Bereitschaft des Kanzlers und von weiteren Mitgliedern der Bundesregierung, angekündigt und bewusst Recht zu brechen und Entscheidungen von Gerichten zu ignorieren. Die Angriffe aus den Reihen von CDU und CSU sowie der DPolG auf Anwält*innen und Menschenrechtsorganisationen erinnern an ähnliche Diffamierungen und Kriminalisierungen in Staaten wie Ungarn oder Italien."

My favorite Tahoe bug so far is if you use an NSHostingView to put SwiftUI into a titlebar accessory view controller, the window contentView loses its scaling factor and everything becomes super small. Why? How are those related? HOW? Spooky action at a distance, man.

First major Tahoe PR for Ghostty, first addressing the most visually obvious things: titlebar/tab styling. Everything adapts except `titlebar-style = tabs` looks pretty different. I think it's kind of nice, though! Ignore the bg color glitches, they're just screenshot artifacts.

There's definitely some readability issues, and glass doesn't look great when there's nothing actively animating underneath it. Those are both not currently my problem, though, and I hope that Apple addresses them in future betas.

i just realized that, since corpo pays for the beers we have on beer fridays, means that Snapchat has bought me beer.

Not as big (or weird) of a Flex as having joined the formerly RedHat funded Käsespätzle all you can eat at the Linixday Dornbirn though!
